9-1-1 help if your motorhome breaks down in the remote mountain pass far from the nearest town where your cell phone doesn't receive a signal?

Here is what the Spot device will do for you:
Friends/family members can track your trip progress automatically in realtime (every 10 minutes) on a google map on their computers. This is called Spotcasting. Alternatively, with Spotchecking, at the press of the Check-In button, you immediately check-in, sending an e-mail message or SMS (text) message containing your exact location to five friends and/or family members.
Buy now and get our reduced price. Spot comes with a 1 year warranty. With your purchase, you must subscribe for $99.99/yr for Spotchecking (check-in), which includes help, and ALERT 9-1-1. The battery has a 12-month life. Optional: For $49.99/yr USD upgrade, you get Spotcasting (realtime google maps).
Spot is the only pocket-size device that tracks your location globally through the International Emergency Response Center. You do require a clear line of sight to the sky because Spot sends satellite signals over the Globalstar Simplex data service network. Where cell phone signals are out of range, Spot will continue to function.
With your rental or purchase, if you wish, Senior Travel Aide will set up your contacts and their Spot messages, or make revisions as you travel per your request, relay a "Help" message from your Spot to the person or persons of your choice by telephone, and remind you in a timely fashion to check your battery strength. Do you want a Spot Travel Journal of your trip? Let us make a journal from your automated trip maps! Here's a sample travel journal. By pinpointing your location using the online map, Senior Travel Aide can provide accurate driving directions during your trips if you call us for assistance. Another smart way to save on the high cost of gas. (Put our phone number in your speed-dial) |
They will know where you are when they turn on their computer and look at the Google map - without worrying about what time zone you are in and if it is OK to call, without waitng for you to call them, ie. with minimal interruption to your travel activities. Simply push the check-in button, it's that easy! There was trip photos - now add automated realtime trip maps to capture those travel memories!
With this online google map, family and friends will track your trip or
cruise in real-time on their home computer. The locations you see below are logged in by the Spot Satellite Messenger.

If your family loves camping, backpacking, winter sports, boating or any type of outdoor sports, the Spot Satellite Messenger is able to alert emergency authorities of their exact location in realtime should an unexpected emergency or crisis arise. With a press of the 9-1-1 button, help is on the way. There are only four places in the world where the SPOT won't function — sub-Saharan Africa, an area of the deep Pacific Ocean including Hawaii, and the North and South poles. Everywhere else, if you've got a clear line of sight to the sky, you're able to access International Search and Rescue with the Spot. Where cell phones are out of range, Spot will send the signal and activate the rescue.
With Spot, your family has peace of mind. That's a gift idea that will make a lasting impression!
