Quick reference

“We already have telematics”

Use when they already run tractor ELD/GPS and question adding K3. Do not rip and replace — lead with the asset gap.

We already have telematics on tractors.

Tractors do not see unpowered trailers in drop-and-hook pools — ValenSolar closes the gap on one platform narrative.

We need ELD compliance for federal hours of service.

Federal HOS duty-status logs require a Transport Canada–certified ELD vendor — K3 does not replace that. Pair your ELD with K3 for trailer/asset visibility, optional OBD safety data, and insurer exports on Wialon.

Install downtime will kill us.

Typical SolarX install is ~25 minutes per trailer with magnet mount — no shop day or wiring.

Our yards already scan barcodes.

Yard scans are point-in-time; GPS + dwell alerts catch trailers at partner sites and ramps between scans.

We are not ready for enterprise telematics pricing.

ValenTrack starts on trailers with battery devices — add tractors when ROI is proven, same platform.

Drivers will push back on more gadgets.

Trailer and OBD installs are outward/asset-side; position as utilization and safety, not surveillance.

Our insurer has not asked for video yet.

Video plus GPS strengthens claims today and positions you for UBI credits when the program renews.
