Ha, no it was in a house.

I have no idea if they are any good, but these GPS relays could kill two birds with one stone, if that's what you are after.

The GPS tracker / cutout seems like a good thing. I see you need to insert a SIM card for it to work
Is anyone using a GPS tracker and what level of service (cost) do you need for the SIM for the GPS to work effectively?

From what I have read on the boating forums the ALDI sim is the cheapest at something like $100 a year.

With Telstra I can get an additional Sim on my phone plan, that data shares, for $5 month.

The aldi sims are $15/year with enough data for monitoring etc.

It’s a PAYG plan, with 365 day expiry. Obviously if you use up your $15 credit before the 365 expiry you need to ‘top up’.

ALDImobile - Pay As You Go $15 credit

Problem with Aldi is it uses Telstra's wholesale network which means out side of major population centres you don't get as good a reception / service as genuine Telstra customers and sometimes no service at all even though genuine Telstra is available. For instance, I cross the Nullarbor occasionally, no service at all on Aldi even though Telstra provides coverage all the way across it.

When the current Aldi super pack ($100/year) expires I'll be looking at Boost. Instead of using Telstra's wholesale network Boost uses Telstra's retail network - same reception / service as genuine Telstra customers for ~ $35 - $50 / year more than Aldi charges.

Check the difference in coverage between Telstra's wholesale and retail coverage on the map here. Big differences, particularly in remote locations.

That's also true of Woolworths Telstra - it doesn't work in some places that Telstra does - which is why we ditched it in Winton and bought Telstra pre-paids.
