Ortovox M2 Avalanche Beacon

The Ortovox M2 avalanche beacon has an 80 meter search range. What does this mean? The M2 emits signals at a fast pulse rate, the transceiver receiving this data can guide you more quickly and without hesitation-and in an avalanche scenario, it's all about time. The Ortovox M2 is an advanced beacon which utilizes easy-to-follow LED icons to direct you to the buried avalanche victim FAST! The signal arrow gives you signal strength while a digital readout gives you the distance in meters. The M2 transmits for 300 hours on 2 AA batteries and is ergonomically shaped (fits comfortably against your abdomen). This beacon guides you along a direct search path to the buried avalanche victim. Ortovox has an excellent track record in avalanche rescue and this new beacon lives up to that reputation.
