Ever wished there was a way you could track your teenager's every move when they borrow the vehicle? Suspect your spouse might be up to no good?

The STI GL300 Real-Time GPS Tracker is a little bit larger than a matchbox and can report location data straight to you so you can reliably keep track of people, vehicles, and more.

On the face, the device has a set of indicator LEDs that show you GPS strength and battery life. There's also an SOS Button that when pressed sends out an instant notification of the device's location, so if you or anyone who has the GI300 is in danger, this Spy Tech device can let someone know where you are.

Because it's so small and compact with a long battery life, the GL300's tracking possibilities are virtually endless. If you want to make sure your child is getting to school and back home safely, just slip one into his or her backpack. If you want to keep tabs on where the babysitter takes your kid when you're away, hide one in the baby-stroller. If you want to check to see if your spouse is cheating on you, just hide one in their car.

You can ensure that it's never discovered by purchasing a magnetic, waterproof case and sticking the GL300 underneath your car where it won’t be seen.

We all know any GPS tracker is only as good as its position specificity and accuracy. Using this device you can locate your target down to within 15 feet. All you have to do to follow its movement is log in to the GPS tracking website using your smartphone or PC. The site gives you access to several premium features you can tailor to meet your needs, like customizable alerts that send you cell phone or email notifications when triggered. If you want to make sure your car doesn't go outside of a certain boundary, you can set up a geofence around the preferred routes and you receive an alert if these boundaries are crossed. You can also save up to a year of historical tracking data, so it's there when you need it.

Let's not forget about battery life. Since most of us don't want to have to constantly charge any gadget, this tracker comes with a battery that lasts two weeks, which is okay. But an even better 6-month battery option is also available from Spy Tec.

There is a $25 monthly tracking subscription cost, which is kinda annoying, but it can be cancelled and resumed at any time without random fees or contract costs.
