Why settle for anything but the best when your life is on the line? The ORTOVOX S1+ was the first avalanche beacon on the market to use patented Smart-Antenna Technology to keep rescue times as fast as possible, and now it's backed up with Recco technology for even greater effectiveness.

• Patented Smart-Antenna-Technology detects the position of the buried victim and switches to the optimal transmission antenna
• World's first 3-antenna avalanche transceiver to indicate relative position and distance to victims
• Real-time display offers relative location and clear directions to locate your target
• Recco reflector inside as backup—Recco technology allows professional rescuers to quickly find avalanche victims and is used by more than 700 ski areas and rescue teams around the world
• Precise partner/group tests check transmitter frequency, pulse duration, and transmission period
• Patented circular display and intuitive tendency indicator
• Automatic location of the strongest transmission signal
• Optimized search acoustics are now louder and even more intuitive
• Professional mode for multiple burials (4+); searchers can flag victims in a multiple burial scenario
• Motion sensor automatically switches the beacon back to transmit mode in case rescuers are caught by an additional avalanche
• Intuitive design: fold open = search; fold closed = transmit; permanent monitoring of the transmitter in transmission mode
• Special “deep burial” mode
• Maximum range of up to 55 m (180 ft); search strip width of up to 50 m (164 ft)
• Device is updateable so it always remains on the cutting edge of technology
• Two AAA batteries provide up to 250 hours of transmission time
• Includes comfortable carrying bag with elastic strap
