The Pieps Set Pro BT includes the Pro BT beacon, 720 C shovel, and Aluminum 300 probe, which are essential safety tools designed for mountain professionals and serious backcountry skiers and splitboarders. First on the docket is the Pro BT. As Pieps' highest level beacon, it's ideal for backcountry professionals and avid backcountry travelers who need full features and reliable performance.

It also has the capability to pick up the signal from Pieps' TX600 transmitter, which is designed for dogs and transmits outside of the standard frequency that human beacons use.
