Product Overview
The Pieps Pro Blue Tooth Avalanche Beacon is ideal for backcountry professionals and avid backcountry travelers who need full features and reliable performance. Its 3-antenna design ensures a more accurate, extensive search than 2-antenna beacons, and an impressive 60-meter range helps you get on the right track to your victim from a further distance. The Pro has a multiple burial function and flagging capabilities, meaning you can mark victims as you find them so your partner can begin probing while you locate the rest, and its Victim Selection scans the entire receiving range and indicates the closest three victims. If you get caught and buried in hangfire when your beacon is in receive mode, after it's still for a certain amount of time it'll switch back into send, enabling your signal to be picked up by your rescuers.
The PIEPS Pro BT beacon is a simple and streamlined beacon with all of the industry standards from one of the industry's best. The Sport is a 3 antenna beacon with an additional self checking reference antenna. The 50m circular search range provides a symmetrical search area. The smart transmitter will adjust signal to allow for the easiest solution during multiple burial situations, and the flagging system allows you to isolate victims as you move through the deposition. The antenna will also switch to the shorter antenna if it senses interference from your other electronics that you forget to keep at least 40 cm away from the beacon. The Sport beacon has a 200 plus hour battery life in send mode, running off 3 Alkaline AAA batteries. Battery life indicator shows battery life in thirds on the display. The firmware can be self updated via a USB cord. The included harness is one of the most comfortable we've tried. Prefer to pocket your beacon? At just an inch thick, the Sport fits nicely in the pant pocket. Either way, this 200 gram beacon carries well and at the ready.
- Neoprene material makes the harness sturdy and durable
- Digital display helps provide convenient reading
