Custom Battery Solutions for GPS Trackers
Compact, long-standby and reliable lithium battery solutions for vehicle trackers, asset trackers, personal GPS devices and IoT tracking systems.
LithoTop develops customized rechargeable and primary batteries for GPS tracking devices requiring long standby time, reliable communication pulses, compact dimensions and stable outdoor operation.
Reliable Power for GPS and IoT Tracking Devices
GPS trackers are widely used for vehicle management, asset monitoring, personal safety, pet tracking, logistics, fleet management and industrial IoT applications.
A GPS tracker may integrate GNSS positioning, 4G, LTE-M, NB-IoT, LoRa, Bluetooth, motion sensors, temperature sensors, alarm functions, microcontrollers and data-storage systems.
Although trackers often consume very little energy during standby, satellite positioning and cellular communication can create short, high-current pulses. The battery must maintain stable voltage during wake-up, positioning, network registration and data transmission.
LithoTop provides customized LiPo batteries, high energy density LiPo batteries, cylindrical Li-ion battery packs and Li-MnO₂ primary batteries for rechargeable and non-rechargeable GPS tracking devices.
Typical GPS Tracker Applications
Customized battery solutions for mobile tracking, personal safety, logistics, fleet management, outdoor monitoring and industrial IoT devices.
Common Battery Types for GPS Trackers
A tracker with very low standby current may still consume significant energy when GPS positioning and cellular transmission occur frequently. LithoTop evaluates the complete operating cycle to estimate battery capacity more accurately.

Frequently Asked Questions
What battery is commonly used in a GPS tracker?
Rechargeable GPS trackers commonly use compact LiPo batteries or Li-ion battery packs, while long-term non-rechargeable trackers may use Li-MnO₂ primary batteries.
How do I choose the correct battery capacity for a GPS tracker?
Battery capacity should be selected according to sleep current, GPS positioning current, communication peak current, reporting frequency, target operating time and available battery space.
Why does a GPS tracker need pulse-current capability?
GPS and cellular communication modules may draw short current peaks during positioning, network registration and data transmission. The battery must maintain stable voltage during these events.
Can LithoTop customize batteries for 4G, LTE-M and NB-IoT trackers?
Yes. LithoTop can customize battery chemistry, capacity, protection settings, pulse-current capability, dimensions, wires and connectors according to the selected communication module.
Can LithoTop develop long-standby GPS tracker batteries?
Yes. LithoTop can optimize battery capacity, self-discharge performance, PCM consumption and pulse output according to the tracker’s complete operating cycle.
Are primary batteries suitable for GPS trackers?
Yes. Li-MnO₂ primary batteries can be suitable for low-maintenance tracking devices requiring long storage life and intermittent positioning or communication.
Can the battery work in outdoor temperatures?
Battery performance depends on chemistry and temperature range. LithoTop can evaluate suitable rechargeable or primary battery options for hot, cold and outdoor operating environments.
Can LithoTop customize water-resistant tracker battery packs?
Yes. Custom housings, sealing structures, water-resistant connectors, reinforced cable exits and protective coatings can be developed according to the tracker’s operating environment.
What information is needed for a custom GPS tracker battery?
Customers should provide voltage, available dimensions, sleep current, GPS current, communication peak current, reporting interval, target runtime, connector, wire length and operating temperature range.
