California uses a radio-tag system called FasTrak for vehicles, and recently they sent me a new tag.

So naturally I had to open up the old tag, right?

This is the closest I was able to get to a non-blurry picture.
It's not super complicated inside: Two main big components, a battery (non-rechargable lithium!) and a switch. The antenna is built into the PCB itself. -

Piezo Transducer?
What is this for? Does it detect the car running? Something at the toll booth?

@futurebird @foone I would imagine it beeps when you go through a toll booth? Ours don’t in WA but that’s what I would imagine this component is for.
