What does the 400 ft range mean?Are you kidding me? I left a tile protected device in a hotel 5 hours from my home. tracking showed that it was still at the hotel. One phone call and it was shipped back to me.

Tile does not transmit to the internet directly. It is a crowd source Blue Tooth transmitter. When you down load the Tile app on your phone, your phone constantly searches for Tile signals. As you walk by a Tile, your phone transmits its location. If you loose (or get stolen) a Tile protected device, you must depend upon a random person with Tile, randomly being in the vicinity of your protected item to know where it is. If your item is stolen by someone that does not have tile. And they take it to a location where no one has Tile. You will never know where it is.What does the 400 ft range mean?
The tile device is just a bluetooth beacon.What does the 400 ft range mean?
so... I would bet most towns have a whole lot more than 2,503 acres. But if there was one Tile phone per acre, your tile would not show up. The reality is, dozens or hundreds are probably scattered within the same small high population area. But there will be VERY VAST areas with no tiles.According to my tile app there are 2503 tile apps in current range in this town.
Yes in my honest appraisal of the system you would have absolutely no hope of ever getting your panels back.so... I would bet most towns have a whole lot more than 2,503 acres.

Kinda like where folks camp. So if another boondocker stole my panels, I would never see them again if I was depending on Tile
The diode case may have enough room to place hidden the tile fob... it doesn’t have to be easy to find... heck, epoxy them to a corner of the panel, and it would be unlikely any dumb criminal would know what it is...Yes in my honest appraisal of the system you would have absolutely no hope of ever getting your panels back.
The person taking the panels could simply remove the tile and then the phone one acre away will find some mud.
Back in the 50’s, my dad had his pride and joy model A pissed on repeatedly by a dog, the walker would bring the dog to the car, and wait for the dog to pee on it, then keep walking... dad kept washing the tires, cleaning the wood spokes, and repainting them. He tried putting signs up, and no matter what, the walker would ALWAYS stop at the car, and wait for the dog to pee.That oughta do it
