 Poster: A snowHead
|
Looking to get either the Zoom+ or 3+ as a package (shovel and probe included), anyone know of any good deals on at the moment? The best I can seem to find is £189 for the Zoom or £259 for the 3, both on Snowsafe.
Thanks in advance!

@someblokecalledjack, I bought mine from Tim and Snow Sheppard - He is a great guy and worth phoning. I would also say make sure the shovel isnt plastic.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

I have a 3+ and it is good. However, in a recent test (EOSB) I was amazed at how much better the Mammut pulse Barryvox was. In my hands and others, the Ortovox had a few redirections (only a few seconds each). Everyone that tried the Mammut was amazed at how it locked on and you could run round the lines and get right to the buried casualty/pack.
You may want to consider that as well.
Good shovel are essential and if possible get the longer 3m probe.
All of the above is just my personal experience and I'm no transceiver expert.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Couldn't find much cheaper, other than refurbished on eBay, when I was looking a month or two ago. I decided to sit it out a bit longer to see if any special offers came up!

@GlasgowCyclops, I'm with you on the Mammut Barryvox Pulse, I've had one for a few years. I've had more than one guide accuse me of cheating when performing a Transceiver search test before heading out, as I effectively walked straight to the buried Transceiver.
I did some field testing with the Barryvox Pulse, Pipes DSP Pro, BCA Tracker 3 and Ortovox S1+, and found the Pulse to be easiest to use and most consistent.
@manicpb, I would wait and see if anything comes up in the Black Friday sales next week.
