    You can use the device's IMEI TAC code: 25631611 to check whether the device is compatible or not. 

     

    The device dooesn't use battery. It needs to be powered on with Power Adaptor.

     

    Thanks

      I am an electrical engineer with over 50 years experience so I know how to power the device with a car battery even if i have to conver to 60 hz 120vac.

        It will not use extra data if you keep it on 24/7 if you don't have device connecting to it.

        Thanks
