The BN-108B (Model 108) is a Vista GPS compatible portable 2G GPS tracker built for long-life mobile asset management and anti-theft protection. With a strong magnetic housing for quick, discreet installation and a very large 10,000 mAh rechargeable battery, this GPS tracker delivers reliable real-time tracking and telemetry for vehicles, trailers, rental cars, and high-value portable equipment.

This Vista GPS compatible device supports multiple reporting strategies — real-time online, Smart mode (sleep when stationary, wake on motion), and Power saving mode (scheduled wake-ups) — and adds security features including external power-disconnection alarm, SOS alarm, remote immobilization (cut-off oil/power), Bluetooth automatic arming/disarming and remote voice monitoring. Its GSM/GPRS connectivity and TCP/UDP/SMS transport make integration with Vista GPS straightforward for fleet management, anti-theft workflows, and long-term location monitoring.

Key Highlights

  • Long-life operation with a 3.7V 10,000 mAh rechargeable Li-ion battery for extended standby and tracking.
  • Strong magnetic housing for easy, discreet installation and removal on vehicle chassis or portable assets.
  • Vista GPS compatible real-time tracking via GSM/GPRS with TCP/UDP/SMS transport protocols.
  • Multiple reporting strategies — Real-time, Smart (motion wake), and Power Saving (scheduled wake-ups) to balance tracking frequency and battery life.
  • Advanced security: external power-disconnection alarm, SOS alarm, and remote immobilization (cut-off oil/power) in Model B.
  • Bluetooth automatic induction for arming/disarming workflows and simplified local control.
  • Standard telematics features: geo-fence, track playback, overspeed and movement/shock alarms, and low battery alerts.
  • Remote voice monitoring for on-device listen-in capability and SMS-based remote configuration.

How It Works with Vista GPS

When connected to Vista GPS, the BN-108B becomes a compact telemetry node delivering positional and status data for fleet management and anti-theft monitoring. Vista GPS ingests the device’s TCP/UDP data streams or SMS reports and translates them into live map positions, event alerts, and playback tracks. The tracker’s configurable reporting modes let you optimize update frequency and battery life depending on the use case.

  • Real-time location and telemetry updates via GSM/GPRS to Vista GPS for live vehicle tracking and route visualization.
  • Alarms and events (external power disconnect, SOS, movement/shock, overspeed, geo-fence breaches, low battery) forwarded as immediate alerts in Vista GPS.
  • Remote immobilizer control (cut-off oil/power) and SOS handling integrated into Vista GPS alert workflows for quick response to theft or emergency.
  • Bluetooth automatic arming/disarming for hands-free local control; status changes can be tracked and reported through Vista GPS.
  • Track playback and historical telemetry in Vista GPS using stored positions and timestamps reported by the BN-108B.

  • Portable equipment protection — magnetic attachment makes it ideal for temporary installation on construction tools, generators, or high-value portable assets.
  • Long-term covert tracking — power-saving modes and large battery capacity enable extended monitoring where permanent wiring is not feasible.

Why Choose This Tracker with Vista GPS

Pairing the BN-108B with Vista GPS gives you a practical, reliable solution for real-time tracking and telemetry across fleets and mobile assets. The device’s very large battery and magnetic form factor reduce installation time and maintenance, while configurable reporting modes let you tune battery life versus update frequency. Security-focused features such as external power disconnect alarm, SOS alert, and remote immobilization strengthen anti-theft workflows. Using standard GSM/GPRS and TCP/UDP/SMS protocols ensures straightforward integration into Vista GPS for live location, alerting, track playback, and fleet management dashboards.

For deployments that require discreet attachment, long standby, and a balance of strong security controls and simple remote management, the BN-108B is a Vista GPS compatible choice that delivers consistent position reporting and essential telemetry without complex wiring. Documentation, installation guidance and accessory harnesses (SOS button, relay, charging/data cable) help accelerate roll-out and integration into your Vista GPS fleet or asset management setup.
