Manual of product Recon BT
Editorial note
The Black Diamond Recon BT stands out with its impressive battery life of 200 hours thanks to its AAA battery, allowing for extended use without interruptions. Its ergonomic design with a T-shaped and telescopic handle offers optimal comfort, although it may not suit all users depending on their ergonomic preferences. In terms of performance, the search system, with a bandwidth of 60 m and three antennas, ensures good reception and connectivity. However, it is worth noting that this range may prove insufficient in certain emergency situations, where a wider search radius would be desirable. The materials used, such as aluminum for the probe, ensure durability and longevity, but the combined weight of accessories like the probe and shovel can be a drawback for users looking to lighten their gear during long hikes. Finally, the price of the Black Diamond Recon BT could be a barrier for some consumers, especially in comparison to other options on the market that offer similar features at a lower cost. In summary, the Recon BT is a quality product, but it is important to consider its limitations in terms of weight and price before making a choice.Score details
