REVIEW – Wanting to track or find physical items by attaching some sort of small device is as old as suspicion.

REVIEW – How many times have you needed something – a screwdriver, knife, something to pry with? One solution is to carry the well-known Swiss army knife, but those tend to be bulky and heavy.
