Equipped with a robust set of features, including wide-voltage input (9–90V), IP67-rated waterproof and dustproof protection, and extensive sensor interface options, the VL808 is engineered for performance in even the most demanding environments. Its official debut took place at the Global Sources Consumer Electronics Show in Hong Kong and has since garnered strong interest from B2B customers across various global markets.

Key Features

• Network Positioning: Supports LTE Cat-1 with 2G fallback and multiple satellite systems including GPS, BeiDou, GLONASS, and Galileo, enabling stable and rapid location tracking.
• Comprehensive Sensor Interfaces: Features a 1-Wire interface for temperature, fuel, or iButton devices; TTL serial port; and multiple digital and analog I/O channels, ideal for connecting ignition signals, door status, and other peripherals.
• Anti-Theft and Safety Functions: Enables remote engine cut-off via platform or Bluetooth accessories. Built-in vibration detection and SOS alert button provide additional emergency safeguards. Advanced power management includes low battery alerts and over-voltage protection.
• Bluetooth Expansion: Built-in BLE module allows seamless pairing with smartphones and Bluetooth peripherals such as vehicle sensors or warning devices for enhanced data interaction.
• Rugged Industrial Design: Full-metal housing with IP67 protection ensures long-term stability in harsh conditions. The wide-voltage input (9–90V) with over-current and over-voltage protection suits a wide range of vehicles including logistics fleets, taxis, construction machinery, and electric motorbikes.

Product Launch and Market Reception

The VL808 made its first appearance at the Global Sources Consumer Electronics Show on October 14, 2024, in Hong Kong. Jimi IoT emphasized the tracker’s role in smart fleet management and real-time asset monitoring. It was later showcased at GITEX Africa 2025 in Marrakesh, where it attracted significant attention from international businesses looking for scalable cross-border vehicle tracking solutions.

The product is now available for enterprise (B2B) customers, with pricing and deployment details customizable based on volume and integration needs through authorized distributors.

Upgrades Compared to Previous Models

The VL808 offers significant improvements in connectivity, durability, and expansion capability over its predecessors:

• Interface Enhancements: Adds a 1-Wire bus and TTL port for advanced sensor and accessory support. Additional analog and digital I/O interfaces enhance integration flexibility.
• Durability and Voltage Compatibility: Features a reinforced IP67-rated metal casing, offering improved resilience compared to lighter designs. Continues support for wide-range 9–90V power input, maintaining backward compatibility with previous models like the VL110C.
• Operational Features: Includes Bluetooth connectivity for external accessories, built-in power protections, and remote immobilization capabilities for improved theft prevention and system longevity.

These improvements make the VL808 an ideal solution for tracking and managing both conventional and electric vehicles. It not only provides real-time location tracking but also supports external sensors to monitor environmental and operational data—boosting fleet safety and efficiency. Use cases include fuel monitoring via connected sensors, driver authentication through iButton devices, and more.

With its powerful hardware, flexible integrations, and enterprise-ready features, the VL808 represents a new generation of telematics solutions tailored for logistics, transportation, and two-wheeled electric mobility industries.
