Pebblebee’s latest ‘tracking’ system doesn’t need batteries to reconnect yo

• Pebblebee Link helps reconnect you with missing gear by way of scannable QR-code labels.
• People who find your stuff can scan the Link to be securely connected with you to arrange a return.
• Priced in bulk, you can pick up Link labels for under $1 a piece.

We’re living in what feels like — at the moment, anyway — the golden age of personal tracking technology. Companies like Tile have been doing Bluetooth-based tracking for over a decade now, and both Apple and Google have helped move the industry forward with vast network-based tracking solutions like Find My Device. The problem with all of these, though, is that they require power, and once the battery in your tracker dies, you’re going to be a bit out of luck. This week at CES 2025, Pebblebee is sharing the latest additions to its tracker ecosystem, including one that addresses this very limitation.

Pebblebee just launched a lineup of versatile Bluetooth trackers this past fall, with its Clip, Card, and Tag supporting both Google’s and Apple’s networks. Those are all rechargeable, and can go 8-18 months between charges, but all batteries are eventually going to run down.
