Maximum quantity available reached.

What's in the Grab and Go Acoustic Survey Kit? This kit is the same setup BCM uses for professional surveys and training workshop events. It includes

  • Your detector version of choice Standard for passive monitoring only,  or Special Edition FD version for active monitoring as well
  • (1)- 16GB SanDisk Gold compact flash card
  • external microphone with preamp
  • Protective microphone capsule by BCM
  • Manual
  • (1) 25' external microphone DMX extension cable
  • (1) 24'' Looped Gear Tie
  • (1) weather resistant plastic storage box (holds all of the above including a 20 Ah external battery (obtain locally) in storage, travel, and deployment.) Keep in mind if anyone really wants your bat detector, they will take it regardless of any theft deterrent.

If you just need the "accessories only", this includes the plastic (non-locking) storage/deployment case, 35' cord, microphone protection capsule, and gear tie. This option -does not- include a detector, microphone, or CF card (items that come with every D500X).

 

The D500X is a full spectrum "direct recording" ultrasound recording unit intended for long-term, unattended recording of bat and other high frequency animal calls. Designed to be deployed for weeks or months, this device detects full-spectrum ultrasound and records in real time using the highest quality, highest signal-to-noise ratio microphone presently available on any passive bat detector today. More information and specifications of the D500x can be found on the D500x product page.

The Special BCM Edition FD is a new option requested by our biologists who wanted an easier method to record voucher calls and other active monitoring tasks. Live frequency-division output is available using user-supplied standard headphones and allows you to make full spectrum manual recordings for as long as the bat of interest can be heard.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Ask BCM a Question
  • Does the Grab N Go kit come with the external battery cable and does the battery cable have a two-pin quick disconnect?

    Hello Shay- No external power cable is included in that kit, because no external battery is included. The cable we make is this that ends in a SAE 2 pin quick connect that is very common with many battey charger/solar accessories: https://batmanagement.com/collections/cables-adapters/products/pettersson-d500x-external-power-cable

    If you want to use D cells, then use this battery pack, and it does include the connector cable: https://batmanagement.com/collections/cables-adapters/products/pettersson-d500x-extended-battery-pack-1

  • I'm interested in a product D500X Grab and Go Kit. Could you please tell me the difference between the standard and special edition FD. Best regards.

    Hello- the Special Edition is a special request made for BCM. It contains a frequency-division chip and headphone jack for live monitoring of the bat activity. The intended use of this is when doing manual recording of specific bats or events...such as only the really "good" passes, or when collecting voucher calls from known bats. You listen with the headphones and press the manual record to simply start+stop, recording at any length of time. Our success rate in capturing voucher calls...and multiple voucher calls... went up exponentially using this tool. We would keep a notepad on the back of the D500x to record what file number went with which species, then cleaned up these records in post processing, throwing out the duds. 

    This system has been now superceeded with the SonoBatLIVE app which makes everything even faster by doing all the note taking on the tablet, thereby reducing the post processing even further. The D500x SE is still a great option for those wanting a passive detector that can also make manual recordings on a whim. The FD chip does use slightly more power, so if you have no need to ever make manual recordings, get the standard version as the battery will last slightly longer.

  • Do you offer any bundle discounts for ordering detectors and sonobat software?

    Hi Jon we do not have a product setup for such a package but could provide a quote. Email jchenger@batmanagement.com with the number of Grab and Go Kits you need and SonoBat licenses. The SonoBat license is per use on multiple devices, includes free incremential updates, and now has a ZC version. The D500x has truly stood the test of time; it still has the best sound quality among devices in it's price range, uses locally sourced microphone and external power cables, has cables that can be seperated from the microphone, and has a decent noise rejection system. 

  • What are the dimensions of the Grab N Go Kit Box? Thank you

    The dimensions of the ammo box are 15.75L x 8W x 10H in inches.

  • Is the Standard Grab and Go up-gradable to the special edition FD? Looking for passive monitoring system, but might need active monitoring at some time in the future. Thanks.

    No they are not upgradable. You can use the standard for active monitoring; simply use a low cost detector that outputs sound in real time with headphones, such as the Baton or BatScanner. When you hear the sequence you want, you start and stop the D500x manually for a high end recording. 

    The SE D500x simply has this live audible output built in. For making live, active recordings, we suggest using an M500-384 microphone recording directly into a PC running SonoBatLIVE or BatSound Touch; this gives you far more control over recordings, filenaming schemes, & metadata. Thanks- JC
