Live Trac G5 Pro: 4G LTE Real-Time Hardwired Vehicle Tracker with Remote Control I/O
The Live Trac G5 Pro is our professional-grade, hardwired real-time GPS vehicle tracker on the 4G LTE network. It delivers everything the standard G5 does – live position updates as fast as every 10 seconds, hidden always-on installation, instant alerts – and adds the muscle serious fleets and security professionals need: a large 5,200 mAh backup battery, plus 3 inputs and 3 outputs for remote control of the vehicle itself. Disable a starter, unlock doors, or monitor equipment like an emergency light bar – instantly and reliably, from anywhere. The device is $199 and real-time tracking service starts at $29.95 per month with no contract.

What makes the G5 Pro different from the G5?
Bigger backup batteryA large 5,200 mAh internal battery keeps the G5 Pro transmitting for up to 10 days (at 30-minute updates) if vehicle power is disconnected – ideal for theft recovery.
Remote control I/O3 inputs and 3 outputs (200 mA) let you disable a starter, unlock doors, or monitor an emergency light bar and other equipment – remotely, in real time.
Built tougherIP66 water-resistant enclosure rated to US Military Standards 202G and 810F and SAE J1455 for shock and vibration. RoHS compliant.
Pro-grade footprintA larger form factor than the G5 gives it the capacity and connections that professional installs demand.

Why real-time updates matter
Many GPS tracking systems only report a vehicle's position every minute or more – so you're always looking at where it was, not where it is. The G5 Pro reports every 10 seconds while moving (or every 5 seconds on the faster plan), giving you true live visibility for dispatch, driver accountability, customer ETAs, and stolen-vehicle recovery. When the vehicle is parked, it drops to 30-minute check-ins to conserve power, then instantly resumes live tracking the moment it moves.
Remote control, not just remote viewing
The G5 Pro's 3 outputs put real control in your hands: wire them to disable the starter of a stolen or delinquent vehicle, unlock doors for a locked-out driver, or trigger other equipment – all from the Live Trac platform. Its ignition input plus 2 additional inputs let you monitor things like emergency light-bar activation, PTO engagement, or door switches, with instant alerts when they change. It's the difference between watching your fleet and actually managing it.
Questions about the G5 Pro?
Our US-based team can help you choose and get set up.
The G5 Pro is a professional-grade, hardwired real-time GPS vehicle tracker on the 4G LTE network. It reports live location as fast as every 10 seconds and adds remote-control inputs and outputs plus a large 5,200 mAh backup battery on top of the standard G5's capabilities.
How is the G5 Pro different from the G5?
Three things: a much larger 5,200 mAh backup battery for extended operation if vehicle power is cut, 3 inputs and 3 outputs for remote functions like starter disable and door unlock, and a larger, tougher IP66 / MIL-STD-rated enclosure.
How much does the G5 Pro cost?
The device is $199, with real-time tracking service starting at $29.95 per month for 10-second updates (or $39.95 per month for 5-second updates). There are no contracts, and you can turn service on or off at any time.
What can I do with the inputs and outputs?
The 3 outputs (200 mA) can be wired to disable a vehicle's starter, unlock doors, or control other equipment remotely. The ignition input plus 2 additional inputs can monitor things like emergency light-bar activation, door switches, or PTO engagement, with instant alerts.
How long does the backup battery last?
The internal 5,200 mAh backup battery is for backup only – if vehicle power is disconnected, the G5 Pro keeps reporting for up to 10 days at 30-minute updates. It recharges from the vehicle in about 6 hours.
How is the G5 Pro installed?
The G5 Pro is hardwired into the vehicle's power, so it stays hidden and always on. Its wide 9–32 VDC input works with both 12V and 24V vehicles, from cars to trucks and equipment. Professional installation is recommended when using the remote-control outputs.
Is the G5 Pro rugged and weatherproof?
Yes. It has an IP66 water-resistant enclosure and is rated to US Military Standards 202G and 810F and SAE J1455 for shock and vibration, so it stands up to harsh, real-world conditions.
Where does the G5 Pro work?
The G5 Pro operates on the 4G LTE network with reliable coverage across the United States (including Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico), plus Canada, Mexico, and 180+ international countries.
Is there a contract?
No. Service is billed month-to-month with no long-term contract, and every purchase is backed by our 100% no-risk, ironclad money-back guarantee.
The Live Trac G5 Pro is the fleet tracker for businesses that need more than a dot on a map. On top of true real-time tracking – as fast as every 5 to 10 seconds – it gives you remote control of the vehicle itself: disable a starter, unlock doors, and monitor equipment through its 3 inputs and 3 outputs. Add a 5,200 mAh backup battery that keeps reporting for days if power is cut, and a MIL-STD-rated IP66 enclosure, and you have a professional-grade tracking platform for work trucks, service fleets, emergency vehicles, and high-value assets.

Built for demanding fleets
The G5 Pro's 9–32 VDC input fits everything from cars and pickups to 24V heavy trucks and equipment. Its IP66 water-resistant enclosure is rated to US Military Standards 202G and 810F and SAE J1455 for shock and vibration, so it shrugs off the punishment of work vehicles. Group vehicles by team, region, or job type; assign drivers; and pull the reports that matter – mileage, idle time, stops, and speed – with no long-term contracts and simple month-to-month billing.
Lower risk, better accountability
Many insurers offer discounts for GPS-tracked and theft-recoverable fleets – and with remote starter disable plus a multi-day backup battery, the G5 Pro is about as theft-resistant as a tracker gets. Driver-safety data helps you coach drivers, reduce accidents, and defend against false claims. It pays for itself in fuel, labor, and risk reduction – often within the first few months.
