I wanted something special from a tracker. I wanted one that would alert me if I left something behind. So when I read that the Chipolo ONE plays a 120dB loud sound that helps you find your missing keys fast, I bought one. It’s said to be water-resistant so you can use it in all conditions without having to worry about damaging your tracking device. Attach your Chipolo to any item you want to track and connect it with the Chipolo app on your iPhone or Android phone. That’s what I needed because I kept leaving my backpack behind at trade show booths after recording a segment there. Another feature I liked is that it’s powered by a CR2032 coin battery which has a battery life of up to 2 years. And when the battery starts to get low you will get notified and you can easily replace the battery! That’s a big plus. But this was going to be the Chipolo’s biggest plus for me: FREE OUT OF RANGE ALERTS – No more leaving you home without your keys or wallet. Receive a notification when going out and leaving your items behind. No subscription required. I couldn’t that to work, and as matter of fact, the unit arrived from Amazon with a dead battery. You’ll see all the details on this week’s show, or at the video link below. I paid $24.90.
