[Fot] Trailer Alarms

[Charlie Dolan]

Airtags are great but limited in their utility. You’ll need to act very quickly to get your vehicle back before the tracker is disabled by the thief.

They have ‘anti-stalking’ features built into them which make it very easy for the perpetrator to identify that an AirTag is on the vehicle and disable it.

I’ve been thinking that maybe the Apple AirTags might be a great way to track race car and trailer as a theft recovery device; might stick one on the frame somewhere:

unfortunately these days everybody and everything has a target on it - trailer tongue locks, alarms, blocking them in such a way they can't just be hooked and gone all help, but, if someone wants it, they'll garb it no matter what - this country is going to the dogs so, be the bigger dog as needed

I saw where ANOTHER trailer and race car got stolen by a dirtbag this morning. FWIW I recently installed a trailer alarm system on my enclosed trailer.  Not cheap at around $600 but I figure cheaper than replacing my stuff. It was a pretty painless install even for me. It has door sensors and a motion sensor. If it is triggered an alarm goes off, the lights start flashing and it applies the trailer brakes.
