The Batlogger M has my 60 day 100% Satisfaction Guarantee & extra year's warranty
For anything on a wildlife theme: Ask Martin!
Hi there,
What can I say about the Elekon Batlogger M?
If you're looking for a hand-held full spectrum recorder, the Elekon Batlogger M is the one to get if you don't need a sonogram display; otherwise check out the Anabat Walkabout and the Wildlife Acoustics Echo Meter Touch 2. The Batlogger M2 is a cheaper version of the Batlogger M, with a sonogram display!
Personally, I'd choose the Batlogger M if you want a simple, efficient and easy to use hand-held bat recorder, but if you want to save some cash the Batlogger M2 or Anabat Scout should give you comparable results.
With all of these units (except the EM Touch 2 and Scout) you'll also get a free bat calls book worth £35: either British Bat Calls by Jon Russ, Social Calls of the Bats of Britain and Ireland (first edition) by Neil Middleton et al, Social Calls of the Bats of Britain and Ireland (second edition) by Neil Middleton et al, Bats of Britain & Europe by Christian Dietz & Andreas Kiefer, Identifying Bats of Britain and Ireland by James Shipman, Is That a Bat? by Neil Middleton or a £35 voucher.
I want you to be 100% happy, so call me on 0333 9000 927 for advice.
Warm Regards,
Martin.
Free extra year's warranty with all bat detectors!
Warranty: 2 years (3 years from me)
The Elekon Batlogger M is the 'bench-mark' for hand-held full spectrum ultrasonic recorders, with extreme sensitivity allowing detection of bats up to 30m away (depending on species).
​
Recorded signals, as well as a number of additional meta-information (GPS-Position, temperature, time, ...), are saved on SDHC-cards.
​
The BATLOGGER is an appealing solution for professional bat monitoring and all people interested in bat protection alike.
Included: 1 BATLOGGER M device; 1 Microphone FG black; 1 SD-Card 16GB; 1 Power supply 100-240V; 1 Case; 1 Instruction manual; BATPARS Editor Software (Windows/Mac); BatExplorer Software (Windows).
The BATLOGGER M is an advanced bat detector and recording system for bat calls. It is a compact and versatile tool with a lot of features for scientists and all people interested in bat protection.
The ultrasonic sounds of the bats are recorded unaltered and in best audio quality (real-time, full spectrum). The BATLOGGER M can be used for active acoustic monitoring and as bat detector. The integrated live monitoring (heterodyne, with automatic tuning) with speaker or headphones simplify work.
​
Advanced bat detector
Due to this sophisticated tool the work of the bat observer is made much easier. The built-in live monitoring (mixer, resp. superheterodyne) tunes to the different call frequencies automatically. On detected bat activity the recording can be started automatically or manually and the most important informations are displayed directly and clearly.
​
Individually adjustable
Different observation situations require different recording settings. Scheduled recording, permanent recording, instant recording and different triggers (for call identification) can be set up. Charts and statistics summarize the recorded data clearly and concisely and can be exported for further processing.

With BATPARS Editor Software it is easy and user-friendly to create and customize the BATLOGGER M settings with your computer (Windows and Mac). So it is a breeze to adjust all parameters according to your wishes, even without searching the manual for the correct values.
​
Open data formats
We believe the data belongs to the user. Therefore the recordings and metadata are stored in open formats such as WAV and XML. Thus you do not need special software to use the data and can, besides our software, also use other popular audio and bioacoustics programs.

Bat Explorer Tutorial
Comment from a client:
"My bat detector microphone failed during a dawn survey and knew that I had a group of dusk surveys starting in two days time. I was not in a good place as I did not have a spare, but my equipment was less than a year old.
After my survey I contacted Martin by email and he called me back on the same day, a few hours later, after a quick nap. He told me he did not have a part in stock, but had already contacted the supplier on my behalf.
The next day I received a replacement part, free of charge and express delivered from Switzerland. I thought it was amazing, and could not believe it was resolved so quickly.
Due to Martin's exceptional service I was good to go with the surveys, and I really would like to thank Martin and Wildlife Countryside Services for making the dusk surveys happen."
