CARLOCK TAG 2.0 - Bluetooth Upgrade for Carlock Device. Automatic Security Alerts Based on Your Proximity to the Car, Reducing False Alarms. Up To 1-Year Battery Life. (Not for Standalone Use)

Brilliant 'add on' to an already great security must have. Fitted to both of my cars and garage door. Works seamlessly and so easy to set up.

I purchased a cartag 2.0 for use in my campervan but had an issue whereby it would self arm after a short period of time which wasn't ideal when actually inside my van and would keep alarming. After discussing this with the Carlock team, I was sent a revised Carlock Tag that would stay disarmed whilst I was present in my campervan. The Tag worked normally when you moved away from your van allowing the system activate as it should. Communication with the team throughout was absolutely first class and I would highly recommend their products and after sales service.

Great when when you go near the motorhome save looking for app on phone also when you leave the tracker switched on automatically

Brilliant tag, but shame the plastic hole where the key goes through split and then completely snapped off in the end while on my car key so I had to buy a new one as the first one only lasted 3 months so £40 later

the key fob, if you are near the car, activates and deactivates until you move away from the car. a small disadvantage

I'm a bit disappointed with this product, if I'm honest. Initial installation/pairing to the car lock device was simple enough, but it took a long time for the carlock to receive it's firmware update in order to be able to use the tag2.0. They say on the app that can take a couple of days to activate, but it was over 10 for me and in the end, I had to contact support to push the update through. Once the update came and it was working, I noticed some strange behaviour fairly quickly. Even though the tag2.0 was inside my house in a drawer with the car keys and the car parked 10 metres or so away from the house, it kept enabling and disabling the carlock multiple times- you can see it in the log, it would be enabled one minute and disabled the next, over and over. It shouldn't work from so far away- this is surely supposed to be a proximity thing- surely you should have to be almost next to the car for this to work- imagine if your keyless entry worked like this! Not great. The only way I found to stop this was to put the tag2.0 in a faraday pouch with the car key, which stopped this behaviour when the car was parked. For me, it also does the same thing, turning on and off multiple times even when you are driving and on occasions hasn't re-enabled the tracking after I've stopped and left the car. From reading other reviews, some others seem to have had this issue and others don't, so I don't know if it's perhaps faulty or not, but it is annoying for me as I like the carlock device and app. I've stopped using it and enable carlock manually again now because with this happening, it might remain disabled and I wouldn't realise it. Its a clever concept but disappointing result for me, unfortunately.

Following a few local car theft incidents, I decided to purchase this along with the OBD port Carlock and it's been fantastic! No longer need to stress if someone has been attempting to get in the car, and is made even simpler with this tag that automatically enables & disables the alarm. It does occasionally disable it if I'm just in range of my car, but I just move my keys & it works perfectly. Great investment 👌

I gave this 3 star because this is the second one I’ve bought the first one worked well at first but when it was time to change the battery it work for an average of 2 days then had to keep changing batteries I don’t know why but had enough so had to buy second one so will see how we go with this one it’s enough to pay subscription to use the tracker but having to keep renewing parts is getting expensive . I’ve had the second one for 3 months now and that is playing up it’s stopped disabling the alarm and goes off when driving the car so I’ve had it when the subscription comes along I will cancel it I’m sick and tired of there’s companies getting you to buy everything and then charge you for using it and it doesn’t work how it should it would be nice for a company to hold there hands up and say we will fix it instead of you keep having to replace parts 😒
