The tracker for assets where recharging is impractical and a proprietary battery pack is one more part to stock. The FC-119 runs on two ordinary AA lithium cells — when they run down, anyone with a screwdriver puts it back in service in a minute.
The FC-119 trades battery capacity for convenience. It carries the same Wi-Fi location, Bluetooth scanning, and tamper sensing as the larger FC-115, in a case 0.71 inches thick, on cells you can buy anywhere.
Runs on two AA lithium cells, sold separately. No charger, no proprietary pack, no waiting on a spare.
Replace the cells on site and the same tracker goes straight back to work.
Scans Wi-Fi access points to place the asset when it is under a roof and satellites are out of view.
Scans nearby Bluetooth sensors and reports what it hears alongside the position fix.
A light sensor detects the tracker being pulled off the asset.
Detects movement and wakes the tracker when the asset starts to travel.
2.48 × 3.70 × 0.71 in and 3.5 oz with cells fitted — small enough for a tool case or a returnable tote.
Dust-tight and rated for 30 minutes at one metre of immersion.

AA cells are not included with the tracker, so add two per unit to the order.
Two cells power the tracker. They are not included, so order two per unit.
Part number: FC-119-BAT-AA
Cable for bench configuration before deployment.
Part number: FC-115-PGM-CBL
Equipment that comes back to a counter between jobs, where fresh cells are part of the turnaround.
Construction →Totes, cages, and racks that cycle through a depot where the cells can be changed on a schedule.
Asset tracking →Assets that move between a yard and a building, located by Wi-Fi when GPS is out of view.
GPS tracking →The unit is yours outright — no loaner program, no three-year term, no early-termination clause. Contact us for volume pricing. Both tiers include iMatrix Cloud, the EdgeUplink eSIM, and US-based support.
Two AA lithium cells. They are not included with the tracker; order two per unit (FC-119-BAT-AA).
Choose the FC-119 when the asset returns to people who can change the cells and you want off-the-shelf batteries. Two AA cells hold less energy than a sealed pack, so for multi-year unattended deployments the FC-113 or FC-115 is the better fit.
Yes. It scans Wi-Fi access points to place the asset when satellites are out of view.
A one-time hardware price, plus a Locate or Track monthly plan. There is no contract. Current pricing: imatrixsys.com/pricing/fc-101/.
The FC-119 is a North America release. Every plan includes the iMatrix EdgeUplink eSIM with Zone 2 (North America) connectivity.
No. You own the hardware outright and plans run month to month. Cancel any time.
