The Titley Ranger is the newest passive bat detector from Titley Scientific with acoustic recording, built-in GPS and class leading battery life

The Ranger has an incredible battery life, recording for over 100 nights* ultrasonic, or 700 hours acoustic, on 8 convenient and readily available AA batteries, or use the external power option. Record full spectrum ultrasonic files with sample rates up to 500 kHz* and/or acoustic files, all in the one device. A built-in GPS saves the location in the metadata of every file you save, and can also be used to log tracks for mobile transects. 2 SD card slots provide ample data storage capacity up to 2 x 1TB. All in an easy to deploy, compact, lightweight design.
*Ultrasonic battery life estimations based on 10% bat activity at 25°C and 10 hour nights recording at 320ksps using 8 alkaline AA batteries. Acoustic battery life estimations based on continuous mono recording at 32ksps using 8 alkaline AA batteries.

Features:
Record acoustic (stereo or mono) and ultrasonic simultaneously
Easy to use stand-alone recorder, no phone required for setup
Automatic schedules for easy deployment, or create your own custom schedule using the colour touchscreen or using Toolbox in Insight
Weatherproof, robust, camouflaged, tripod mountable housing
You can choose from our range of microphones to suit your needs, all of which are weatherproof and user-replaceable
Power with 4 or 8 AA batteries, or external power with solar panel options
Lasts for 100 nights (full spectrum ultrasonic) or 700 hours recording time (acoustic) on 8 AA batteries*
Built-in GPS with transect mode available

You have the choice between the user-replaceable acoustic and ultrasonic microphones. The Ranger has three channels, so you can customise your microphone setup to record:
Mono (1 channel) acoustic. Low-profile side-mounted or extension-mount.
Stereo (2 channels) acoustic. Low-profile side-mounted.
Mono (1 channel) ultrasonic. Front-mounted, omnidirectional or directional options.
Or any combination of the above simultaneously, or on a custom schedule.
 
All microphones feature a high-performance microphone element, with built-in low noise preamplifiers, low noise floor and are weather resistant.
