Losing your luggage at the airport is perhaps one of the most disheartening things that can happen to you, and can sour your vacation pretty quickly. And in some instances, you’ll have to wait days to discover where, in fact, your precious baggage has ended up — if it’s even ended up anywhere at all or simply been stolen. To help you safeguard against these suitcase mishaps and give you some peace of mind, Knog has an excellent solution called the Scout Travel, which serves as a tracking device specifically for your bags.
Water resistant and weighing around 1.2oz, the Scout Travel bills itself as the “world’s smartest luggage tag” and is compatible with Apple’s Find My app so you can pinpoint the exact location of your bags in real-time, anywhere in the world. Each tag features a unique QR code with your information. But first, you just download Knog’s companion app (only on iOS) and enter your phone number and address.
Before you ask, the Scout Travel can’t just be removed like a normal luggage tag. It’s made with a braided stainless steel cable and features an anti-tamper bolt designed not to be taken off easily. The tag also doubles as an anti-theft device, with its 85dB, motion-sensitive Piezo Alarm Speaker that simultaneously pings your phone, as long as you’re in Bluetooth range. With a battery life that lasts between 2 and 4 months, the device charges via USB-C port in just 4 hours. When the battery hits 20%, you’ll get a notification on your phone.
If you have a bulkier handle on your suitcase, the smart tag comes in two different length options. And so you’re not stuck with just one style, there are five colorways to choose from as well — Pitch Black, Tangerine Dream, Mellow Mint, Sunflower Yellow, Deep Blue.
