Asset Location Tracker Kit v7
Asset Location Tracker Kit v7 — Build a Coin-Cell Powered LoRa GPS Tracker with 12-Month Battery Life
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
Create a tracker that fits in the palm of your hand and runs for a full year on a single CR2450 coin cell, sending GPS coordinates over LoRa to any gateway. This kit transforms an Arduino Nano 33 IoT (with its ATSAMD21 chip) into the core of an ultra-compact, waterproof asset-tracking device — ideal for logistics, bike tracking, or monitoring valuable equipment in remote locations.
What You'll Build
A fully functional 30x40mm tracking board that combines the ATSAMD21 microcontroller, RA-02 LoRa module, and NEO-6M GPS receiver. You will assemble the circuit on a proto board, enclose it in an IP67-rated waterproof case, and deploy a battery-optimized firmware that wakes every hour, grabs a GPS fix, transmits location via 433 MHz LoRa, and returns to deep sleep — all powered by a single coin cell.
What You'll Learn
- Power-optimizing Arduino code for multi-year operation from a coin cell
- Interfacing a GPS module (NEO-6M) with the ATSAMD21 via UART
- Transmitting GPS coordinates over LoRa using the RA-02 module and 433 MHz antenna
- Designing a compact, battery-powered embedded system on a protoboard for real-world deployment

Who This Kit Is For
This advanced kit is built for B.Tech ECE/EEE students finalising an IoT or asset-tracking capstone project, Smart India Hackathon teams that need a dependable long-range tracker with extreme battery life, and researchers at IITs, NITs, VIT, or BITS Pilani prototyping low-power sensor networks. If you already know Arduino basics and want to graduate to professional-grade power management and LoRaWAN integration, this kit delivers the complete blueprint.
Built and Backed by Compoden
Every Compoden kit ships with an AI build companion trained on this exact project — accessible via a QR code on the box, with WhatsApp and email backup. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. If a part fails because of a manufacturing defect, replace it free within 7 days.
What if I get stuck during the build?
Our AI companion, accessible via QR code, provides step-by-step debugging for this exact kit. You can also reach us on WhatsApp for personalised support.
What kind of enclosure is included and is it truly waterproof?
The kit includes an IP67-rated waterproof enclosure that fits the 30x40mm board and battery. It protects the electronics from rain and dust, making the tracker suitable for outdoor asset monitoring.
Can I extend the battery life beyond 12 months?
Yes, by adjusting the transmission interval in the firmware. For example, reporting every 4 hours can stretch battery life to several years. The AI companion will help you simulate power budgets and choose the best interval.
Does this kit work with Indian LoRaWAN frequencies?
Absolutely. The RA-02 module operates on 433 MHz, which is the license-free ISM band approved for LoRa in India. No special permits are required.
Asset — 30x40mm PCB with ATSAMD21, RA-02 LoRa and NEO-6M GPS. Coin cell powered. 12-month tracking life.
