Curious on suggestions for airtags, or similar, for tracking important things on flights or other cases where losing the specific item would be too much of a financial / sentimental loss. Anyone doing this from Linux, or from graphene? How is it?


Are there any (ideally waterproof) compact devices with long battery life (months~years)?
On the website I only found a long list of supported devices with brand name search and protocol type. grep showed no LoRaWAN devices though?
My use-case is theft tracking. I only need the device to be able to locate itself after a theft actually occurred and I request it remotely. (Perhaps also periodically with very low frequency.)
