stuarth, I assume you've tried doing a web search?
We got ours at www.facewest.co.uk but they seem to have stopped stocking them. Google returned http://www.outside.co.uk but I think we paid a bit less (we bought in small (x5?) bulk).

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

MEC in Vancouver, Escape Route if you're in Whistler. Used to be quite popular in snowboard shops IIRC Burton rebadged it as a RED product.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Cheers guys. Unfortunately (or fortunately actually!) I need it before I get out to Whistler this year so can't get one from Escape Route (though I'm not sure they still do them as I only noticed DTS trackers last year).
Did do a google on them but didn't find any uk suppliers, I'll give the ones mentioned above a try.

JT,
Yep seen those. Not sure I really want/need to spend the extra on a Pulse though, the normal one should do just fine - if I can find one to buy!

PhillipStanton, great link... if you have used them, did you get stung a lot for tax/customs?

I've not used them stoatsbrother, but I have a friend who has and was very happy with the service.
They also do special offers on www.ebay.com - although they don't have any at the moment.
It's always best to factor in tax / customs and treat it as a bonus if you don't pay it. I've no objective basis for saying this, but I do think that I used to get away without paying tax / customs a lot more than I do now.
You should also factor in a £10-£15 customs handling fee at this end, which the carrier will charge.

Escape Route did stock them, but didn't see any last season. However Whistler Heli Ski shop (next to Roots in the Crystal Lodge) have plenty of units for sale behind the counter.
