Ortovox S1+ Beacon

Item #ORT0132 | 47 in Stock
4 Star Rating

Bells and Whistles

By Ranked #118 - Avalanche Beacons April 13, 2010

This is a great beacon. great. I have used this among other pieps and bca beacons. It is very easy to use, minimal spiking, easy to use, even for beginners , multiple burial locators. Unfortunately it cost a bit more, and other beacons with triple antennas are out for 100 dollars less. My recommendations would be the BCA tracker 2 or the Pieps dsp. Save the difference in money for a new pair of skins or avalung!
