I can just imagine some manager at AT&T sitting at their desk thinking "I'll get one of our software guys to write me a report that tracks Mobleys to see how long they stay on and if they move." Actually no, I can't imagine that happening at all.
I could imagine someone running a report to select all accounts where the device in use does not meet a class of devices listed for that service, if such a list of classes/devices actually exists. But then they would have to have legal render an opinion, decide on a response, and follow through. Seems like a pretty expensive undertaking if you ask me and might be risky because it would just anger people like me who pay them for satellite, 2 cell phones and a Mobley.

The Power Save page of the Mobley says 'The mobile hotspot will power off automatically if the voltage of the OBD connector drops to 11.5v'.
Respectfully, that's the wrong answer.
I want to keep the Mobley operating past the two hour limit. At 12.8 VDC the device still shuts down after two hours.
I'm not using my Mobley SIM in the Mobley currently, so I haven't had a chance to play around with my variable power supply to see what the minimum voltage is for a "keep awake". I do know of someone that worked around the problem by plugging his Mobley 120VAC adapter into a digital lamp timer that shuts it off for one minute every two hours.

All of the Mobley's are being updated to 1.0.3. It removes the "Never" timeout choice and also locks the SIM to the Mobley so it can't be used in another device. There are ways around both issues though. The Mobley will stay "alive" as long as the supply voltage stays high enough to simulate a running vehicle voltage, and the SIM lock problem can be fixed by asking AT&T tech support for a couple of PUK (Personal Unlocking Key) codes. The codes are 8-digits and are used when asked after entering an incorrect 4-digit unlock code 3 or 4 times. Only one code is needed, so save the second one as a spare. If you're not removing the SIM from the Mobley, just leave it locked for now, it'll work fine.
