Are you using the BatLure or BatCounter? Mains power is not available at every location. Apodemus has developed the Solar Powerkit 60Wp especially to meet this need: a source of electricity that works anytime, anywhere where there is sun.

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

Time expansion bat detectors such as the Petterson D240x need an external recording device to record bat sounds. The Tascam DR-05X is very suitable for this and is therefore an essential part of your equipment.
The Tascam DR-05X is connected to the D240x by means of a 3.5 mm audio jack cable. The bat sounds are saved to a micro SD card in .WAV format. The recorded sounds can be replayed and analysed on the computer, for example with the BatSound analysis software.
The 3.5mm jack cable and SD card are not included.
The Tascam DR-05X was originally not designed for bat research but for recording music, but this audio recorder is an excellent addition to your bat research.
