Ozzie D, NP-hard :bikepump: :vegan:<a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/BikeTooter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BikeTooter</a> friends, I'm looking for advice on adding a BT tracker to a bike. Thinking about it after reading this Reddit thread: <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/bikeboston/comments/1gtonde/stolen_bike_but_thanks_to_airtag_i_recovered_it/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.reddit.com/r/bikeboston/comments/1gtonde/stolen_bike_but_thanks_to_airtag_i_recovered_it/</a>I'm not an iPhone user, so <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/AirTags" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AirTags</a> are probably not for me -- although I guess I could register one on an iPad, and check its location by logging into iCloud on a different mobile device? Google launched a competing "Find My Device" network this year, but my impression from reviews is that it's not yet very reliable at pinpointing tracker location.I've browsed devices by Tile, Pebblebee, Chipolo, but I don't know which trackers hold up best to 4-season biking. Is it reasonable to stick one inside an aluminum frame tube? It'd be cool to hide a tracker under this cage-mount cover: <a href="https://www.elevationlab.com/products/tagvault-bike" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.elevationlab.com/products/tagvault-bike</a> , but it would need to be the same dimensions as an AirTag (Chipolo's round trackers are 6mm wider in diameter, Pebblebees are teardrop-shaped, Tiles are rectangular).<a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Android" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Android</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/BluetoothTracker" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BluetoothTracker</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/BikeCommuting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BikeCommuting</a> and <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/BikeNitePQ" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BikeNitePQ</a> (in case this question is of interest to the Friday night crowd)
