The PIEPS iProbe BT 220 Avalanche Probe is a state-of-the-art electronic probe designed to enhance and accelerate avalanche rescue operations. It provides both acoustic (beeping) and visual (LED light) hit indications when it approaches a transmitting avalanche beacon, guiding rescuers precisely to the burial site. The probe supports Bluetooth connectivity, allowing wireless device management and firmware updates via the PIEPS app.
The probe extends to a length of 220 cm with 5 tubular aluminum sections, each 12.5 mm in diameter, and has a total length of 270 cm including the handle. It weighs approximately 380 grams, making it lightweight and easy to carry. The probe features a quick-release fastener for rapid assembly and tensioning, as well as elastic closure straps that ensure secure packing and transportation. A centimeter scale along the probe aids in measuring burial depth and snow profiles.
With a battery life exceeding 100 hours and operational temperature ranging from -20°C to +45°C, the iProbe BT 220 is reliable for long interventions in varying weather conditions. It also includes multiple burial support by managing the signal interference between different beacons, enhancing efficiency during complex rescue scenarios. This tool is essential for alpine backcountry users committed to safety and efficient avalanche rescue.
