Re: Using the Tile or other GPS tracker in case
I have a tile on my key chain because I loose my keys a lot (several offices, storage units, and a big wad of keys means I put them down in various places and get caught up in work and forget where). I have another on a piece of equipment I hand carry with me at work and I was always putting it down and loosing it. I am amazed at how well these work. In any urban area there are apparently enough tile users with cell phones to track these things pretty well. Sometimes they take awhile to get a ping but they do work better than you'd think in an urban area.
I don't think there is any point in putting one in each mando case. How often to you misplace your mandolin? As for theft, anyone who steals your mando is likely going to throw out the tile. Sure you can bury it in the lining and maybe its worth it to you but its not likly enough to happen to me to make me do that and I have several tiles sitting unused..
Maybe if you gig out a lot and leave the mando un attended it could be good. I gig out just a little but never leave it out of sight.
No matter where I go, there I am...Unless I'm running a little late.
