The first product I have chosen is for people who love to travel and is called the Trakdot. It is a small, lightweight device you put in your suitcase that tracks the location of your luggage while you travel. When an individual lands at their destination, the Trakdot will send a notification either through the iphone app, text message, or online to alert them of where their luggage is. One positive of this product is that if an airline loses a person's luggage, the individual will be able to locate it and potentially save themselves time and money. They will no longer have to buy a completely new wardrobe or wait days and days while the airline figures out what happened to the luggage. One problem addressed by reviews of the product was that the batteries in the Trakdot were supposed to last two days, but after less than twenty hours, the battery died. This makes it difficult for international travelers to use because it is likely the Trakdot will not be working when they land. I usually tend to travel smaller distances so I think this device would work well for me and also put my mind at ease because I will know my luggage has arrived safely. Overall, I would give this product an 8/10.
