hi
thanks for the info about Knog.
i actually had never heard of that company until you mentioned them,
so i went to their site. and like wow. totally a company that has taken the Air Tag to a new level.
i have purchased one on line, and will get it next week.
to be fair to this thread's discussion however, it appears to me that the Scout Travel by Knog is almost a completely different device than apple's Air Tag. it is very specifically built for the scenario you put forth - meaning: to specifically warn you immediately if that thing (device or luggage or whatever) moves from the exact location you left it at. it even has an 85 dB alert at the tagged item location (!). its not surprising that Kong (basically a bike products company) commissioned this.
thanks for the info about this company.
here are links (in japanese, sorry...) for two this product.

Your welcome
It actually works exactly as I was hoping the AirTag to work
I had to buy an AirTag and find out it did not work to get there
The air tag is still in my desk drawer
It beeps sometimes
Maybe I’ll find a use for it someday
I hate it feeling so sad
Maybe I’ll introduce it to my 2012 Mac mini one day. The last apple computer I ever bought
I want to buy a Mac so bad but they are just not good enough
I’ll keep running macOS on my new intel build til they figure it out
