The Magenta Mk4 Bat Detector
The Magenta Mk4 Bat Detector
'Listen to the ultrasonic echo-locating 'chirps' 'smacks' and 'clicks' from these amazing creatures.
Sold Out - Sorry

  • High level Audio output
  • Built in front-facing weatherproof speaker
  • Murata Miniature Microphone
  • 20 to 130 kHz frequency range
  • Advanced low noise IC pre amplifier stage
  • Improved, highly stable heterodyne oscillator
  • New 'active filter' audio stage
  • Increased gain and sensitivity
  • Convenient side mounted Headphone socket
  • Extra low level output Tape Recorder socket
  • Built-in LED torch
  • All new circuit board construction and assembly
  • 2-year manufacturer guarantee

The detector circuit is a 'heterodyne' type. The incoming ultrasound is filtered to remove ordinary audio frequencies and then mixed with the signal from a tuneable 'local oscillator' to translate the frequency into the audible range. Frequencies from 20 to 130 kHz are converted using a high quality 'double balanced mixer' IC giving excellent stability and low noise performance with low current drain.
Power is provided from a 4x AAA battery (not supplied) Alkaline cells. The microphone is the latest Murata (Japanese) type, and the loudspeaker is a super low profile unit with a weatherproof Mylar cone. The circuit is constructed using surface mounted components and is compact stable and reliable.

This design is used by amateurs and professionals alike, and is earning a good reputation for performance, quality and reliability. Not just for Bats! The detector has been used and highly recommended for listening to ultrasound from Rats, and Crickets, (it also locates bicycle punctures very efficiently!) It is simple to use - even by absolute beginners.
