Intro
One of the lightest, most compact models on the market (just 214 g / 7.5 oz. including batteries), it has an extensive search strip width of up to 80 m / 262 feet in digital mode and 90 m / 295 feet in analog, as well as Bluetooth connectivity and app for software updates. It's small and easy to handle—except the group test button, which is a little unwieldy with thick gloves on. The lock button to stop it accidentally switching from search to send is very useful.
