As someone else said it’s ridiculous that insurance companies don’t recognise it , could they be being paid ( allegedly) by much more expensive tracker companies not to . Got the original one on my bike and has worked perfectly for five years 😊👍👍 ps it’s the same with locking chains , my bike is secured with the strongest and most expensive Abus chain recommended by one insurance company, but my company have never heard of it weird 🤪🤪
My Monimoto 7 battery life is nowhere near 2 years. 9 months at best, using the recommended Energiser Lithium AA batteries. The bike is stored most of the time and isn't used regularly, so there shouldn't be any significant battery drain. Energiser Lithium batteries aren't cheap, so the Monimoto 9, with the upgraded features and rechargeable battery, is a better bet, in my opinion.
Sorry to say but I use the previous gen on my bikes and it works intermittently. Doesn’t matter where I am the signal is poor, I’m looking for an alternative
I found the same, the key fob needs to be very close to the tracker unit. I worked round this however it can be a bit impracticable. I also get phantom low battery alerts now and again which can be a pain in the A!
Not interested in a unit that isn't a "stand alone" device where I also need to purchase an annual subscription. Plus from their web site "Once the motion stops, you'll get a notification with its last-known location about 30 minutes later.". I would want a second by second update, not one about 30 minutes later.
This could use doublestick to mount inside a panel and charge via MagSafe through the panel. Could use a large magsafe battery pack you stick up to it once a month, or even slap on while you ride so its topped off by the time you arrive. I think enough bikes have a semi flat plastic panel somewhere to facilitate this.
Can the tracker be deactivated.I will be having my bike shipped from Ireland to Spain shortly for a tour,I don,t want to be getting notifications due to the motion of the ship.
Only thing I've found similar to this in the US is the Invoixia gps tracker. I have to charge that up every 3-4 months though. It is about 1/3 the size of this one though.
I'd go with both. The Airtag would be great almost as a decoy. "Oh, I've chucked that Airtag away, the bike won't be tracked now..."

I agree - if it doesn’t make sense, think: ‘money’.
I've had the 7 for a few years now , no complaints... I will do the upgrade for the usb alone.

Just ordered a 9 with your link. Nice one!
The coupon has expired ;(
It would have been nice to have seen a demonstration of the Monimoto 9.

@@digger8180 yea same. Shame really because they started off well. Also frustrating, as others have said, that it doesn’t affect your insurance.
Have you found one?
Looks like a great idea but the size makes it difficult to hide. Hopefully it will continue to shrink in future iterations.
The USB charger is a huge improvement
Got the 7, brilliant kit…
Discount code does not work in US market.
Hi 😊 Is this insurance approved do u know ?

can you compare with Invoxia?? 😁😁
Is this US only? Just bought a bike and looking for options in Peru, will it work internationally?
Lol two seconds after the comment got my answer, RIP
can i buy this and use it Hong Kong..? how about the esim service?

So does this require the £36 year annual subscription?
Yes.
Brilliant - a MotoBob upload…😋👈❗️

Yes. You can send it to sleep for a specified period - needs to be done with the fob near the bike and before you ship it.
Hi all,
Does the unit in the video alert on movement?
Would like to know this as well
I believe it does - @ 2:21.
When will android offer something similiar to the Airtag? - Or is it there already that I am not aware of?
Google find my device network just went live. I pre-ordered pebblebee wallet tracker and key fob. Hopefully they work well.
Samsung SmartTag 🤦🏻♂️
@@burakiptas5862 but I think it will not work on other android phones?
@@burakiptas5862 Not hearing good reports at all. I skipped it after researching...
Is the subscription per device?
just ordered mine, product looks nice I hope i dont have to use it, but better safe then sorry!
I think EmilyThomsoni below said it best.." I never cease to be amazed by your talent. It's like a fairytale come to life! ' Thanks Emily.....
Looking at the info it says it uses the 2g network. Hasn’t 2g already been nearly cut…now they’re cutting 3g too? Will this keep working?
Apparently it also works on a 4G network / LTE-M
@@YarivanderHorst That’s good to know. 👍

I had the original Monimoto here in the US. Not sure if they still support it here though.
If it does what you brought it to do, that's a very small inconvenience.
Its a nice product but its a shame insurance companies dont recognise it so it won't reduce your insurance quote.
Another cool thing we can’t get in Canada. Friggin Canadian laws.
This doesn’t tell me how to install, what its features are or how it can help me at all
What kind of bike is that?
Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 (Base Price: $5,899.00 [usd]).
A year? Sold. Thank you.
Monimoto 8 ? What happened!
Discount code flew by... Missenden flyers was valid for 24 hours. 😂😢
Why "motorcycle" !?!! It doesn't work with a car? 🤔
I’m sure it could
Invoxia
Bike theifs will use phone apps like AirGuard to detect stuff like this and find it rip it off
Why do the insurance companies not recognise this system
Because they're insurance companies trying to squeeze as much out of you as possible?🤷🏻♂️
