  • Built-in timer: allows you to play sounds (for the BatLure) whenever needed
  • The BatLure can be permanently mounted in the cabinet

The BatLure is suited for: The luring of bats using recordings of social- and echolocation bat calls in order to catch them for research purposes To draw the attention of bats to a new potential roost to hasten its colonization. For example: bat boxes, newly constructed hibernacula as well as new summer- and maternity-roosts The playback of bat calls during training and bat-detector courses The testing of bat detectors and sound recording devices The localization of mating roosts through playback of male song/vocalizations and observation of responding territorial males What’s in the box 1 Apodemus BatLure 1 Carrying case with sufficient room for accessories 1 External power cable for a 12V power input 8 Rechargeable AA Batteries 1 SD-card with several pre-recorded sounds* 1 Manual *Recordings have been provided by Michel Barataud [http://ecologieacoustique.fr/] and Guido Pfalzer.

BatCounter Large
The BatCounter is an electronic device developed to use in field applications for counting bats, birds or other small animals passing through its rectangular or square shaped aluminium frame. The aluminium frame of the BatCounter has had a black anodized surface treatment that protects the BatCounter in the outdoor making it a rugged and reliable partner. When using the BatCounter for less than two days, you can rely on electrical power via the 8 AA batteries that are in the box. To enable longer runs, hook the BatCounter up to an external battery of 12V using the external power cable that is included. The BatCounter detects and counts the different passings of bats and stores all the information on the SD Card. Not only will the collected data be available on the SD Card, external communication of this data is possible. Reports stating results and default information can be send by email and or SMS text messages at set intervals. This additional feature will provide you with results without the need to be physically present at the site and it will give the reassurance that the system is operating smoothly on a constant basis. Simultaneously with detecting bats passing through its frame, the BatCounter is able to trigger your DSLR camera (Nikon or Canon) using an external cable or through infrared signal. The camera cable is not included but can be ordered separately. Mail us for the possibilities.
