Small and stylish
This staggeringly small GPS system is set to revolutionise the way you find your way back to…well, wherever it is you started. No more asking strangers for directions only to forget what they said. You won't even have to memorise landmarks or phone your mummy crying in desperation. Or is that just us? Think of it as a hi-tech breadcrumb trail without the breadcrumbs.

An easy way to find your

Dude, where's my car?
Honey, I'm sure the hotel was here somewhere...
Despite its diminutive dimensions, the ECCO utilises the very latest GPS technology. Satellite acquisition time is 30-60 seconds max, and it is accurate to within 10m. And if you can't spot your car/tent/buried treasure from that distance, we can only assume you are very thick, very drunk or both.
Can save up to 3 different locations

"It's hard to get lost with IDC's ECCO on your keyring."Wired - Nov '09
"It's hard to get lost with IDC's ECCO on your keyring."Wired - Nov '09
"This simple device has enormous appeal if you have ever lost your car in a car-park or your hotel in a foreign city. Click a button to lock your position (up to three can be stored) and when you want to return, press another button and it points you in the right direction. The battery typically lasts for two weeks per USB charge."Telegraph - Jul '09
"You're out clubbing on holiday and some muscle-bound 'stud' suggests you go back to his. Rather than waking up in the morning and wondering where the hell you are, click the 'lock' button to remember your original location, let the Spaniard take the lead, and come morning, simply follow the directions back to the beginning where you can start all over again."Attitude - Jul '09

Excellent gizmo. You could play long distance hide and seek. Get a friend that lives a distance from you to store a location. Then get them to post the Ecco to you. You can then go on a road trip and try to find the location they stored ( and if they're a real friend, they might even leave you a 'congratulations' prize).Al, Manchester - Oct '09
Delivered the morning after ordering (as usual), isn't it nice to know you can trust Firebox! Nice size and weight - doesn't feel too small and plasticy, but it's not too heavy or bulky either, very similar to a car remote control lock. It's not clear in the description but when active it's lit up in a cool blue light so easy to use at night too. I was a bit concerned it could only be charged by USB but I solved this by buying a USB car adaptor for less than £2 on eBay - easy to take on holiday now!Mark, Woking - Jul '09
I used to get lost occasionally walking the dogs in the New Forest. Not any more. I simply mark where I park and start walking. When they've had enough I just follow the arrow back to the car. Absolutely brilliant.Dave, Poole - Jul '10
Could you please tell me what the weight of this little tinker is? I love the idea, and have already had requests from relatives for birthdays. Looks like an expensive but totally worthwhile year for me!Simon, Cambridge - Jun '10
Firebox says: It weighs approximately 250 grams.
Can I see the latitude and longitude co-ordinates with this? Thanks. :).Adam, Oxford, UK - May '10
Firebox says: I'm afraid not. Distance and directional info only
Just wondering what are the dimensions of the unit?Brian, Edinburgh - Feb '10
Firebox says: Hi Brian, dimensions (packaged) are: 229x134x38mm
Does the Item come with the USB lead to be able to charge it up or does it need to be bought separately?Gareth D, Swindon - Jan '10
Firebox says: Yep, it comes with one!
If I take this out on my friend's boat can I steal his fishing spots? Does it give you a latitude/longtitude reading so I can then put the stolen coordinates into the GPS on my boat?Pete, Isle Of Man - Jan '10
Firebox says: It provides bearing information while you're standing still so if the seas are calm enough we don't see why not!
What voltage is the ecco gps can you use a usb car cig lighter which gives 12v.Ted, London - Dec '09
Firebox says: Rechargeable battery USB connection at home, computer, or in your car. You should be fine!
This is a cool stuff to help me to find where my mother in law's house is... I get lost every time... :).Extreme, Norway - Dec '09
Firebox says: Glad we could help!
