GLO brings you the best of both worlds by combining GPS/GLONASS receivers with Bluetooth® technology so you can enjoy precise position information on your iPad, iPhone or Android device.

The Accuracy of GPS + GLONASS

GLO 2 can receive position information from both the GPS and GLONASS satellite constellations, allowing it to connect to up to 24 more satellites than devices that rely on GPS alone. This allows GLO 2 to lock on to satellites approximately 20 percent faster and remain connected even at high speed. What’s more, GLO 2 updates its position information at 10 times per second — that’s up to 10 times more often than the GPS receivers in many mobile devices.

Set It Up and Go

Using Bluetooth technology, GLO 2 wirelessly pairs to your mobile device. Just set GLO 2 within range of your mobile device, and in moments you’ll be receiving GLO’s position data. It has up to 13 hours of battery life to keep your position on long trips, and charging GLO 2 between uses is easy with the included USB cable or optional 12/24 volt cigarette lighter adapter. The optional friction mount keeps the receiver safe on your dashboard and in full view of satellites.
