How to properly track Google location history across multiple devices?

There are two android devices (Nexus 4 and Nexus 7 2013). Both devices under one account. The phone is always with you, and the tablet is often left at home. In the location history (maps.google.com/locationhistory), my location constantly "jumps" from the location of the phone to the home (tablet). Is it possible to select devices for determining location history? Do not offer the option with different accounts, I use only one account with 100+ purchased applications and do not want to create another one.

On a device that does not need to be tracked, disable sending geodata.
On nexus 7 with android 5.0.2 it looks like this: menu - google settings - my location - sending geodata - sending geodata (disable).
On android 4.x it's about the same, the menu is slightly different.
"Location History" must remain enabled (otherwise it will turn off the history on all devices).
