First of all, the GTA02 doesn't have great power management, also due to a number of hardware bugs. So a efficient stand-alone tracker will certainly do much better. However, without display and so on it can be doable - but not by any standard battery that fits in the case. Cheapest way is probably a standard 4.5V alkaline battery at 6 Ah, should be enough for just about 3 weeks, doesn't even need any additional electronics for a quick'n'dirty solution. _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
