This is awesome! It looks like it could do several things for which I wanted to have a device. Offline GPS tracker with very long run time for hiking. I'd like up to one month run time. On the other hand I only need low time resolution, one waypoint each minute. It also does not need to send the location anywhere, storing it local is fine. Offline/Online GPS tracker for paragliding. Battery for one day, but also high resolution tracking, about one waypoint per second. Long range communication extender for my mobile phone that does not require infrastructure like base stations. (For the prepper in me)

This Garmin device in Expedition mode might work for you. It seems to have configurable GPS logging and inReach satellite coms. https://forums.garmin.com/outdoor-recreation/inreach/f/gpsmap-66i/214719/gpsmap-66i-battery-life-i-m-on-the-fence https://forums.garmin.com/outdoor-recreation/inreach/f/gpsma...

current battery life is about 3 days and will soon be eight days. See our power calculations spreadsheet, but with with scheduled broadcast intervals (because we have GPS time) it is fairly feasible to reach 30 days between charging. I'm also a (retired, but formerly very active) paraglider and that was a big motivator for me.
