PTT-100 18 gram—Pico PTT

The 18 gram solar PTTs are now available. These tiny PTTs use a small solar array to charge an internal battery, under microprocessor control, that can power the PTT even in the dark.

As in our other solar powered PTTs, the lifetime limitation of a lithium battery is eliminated by the solar power source. Some of our larger solar powered units have now been running continuously for over five years!

It is now over a year since the prototypes of our new 18 gram solar PTT were deployed. They are still transmitting, one having successfully tracked a Swallow-tailed Kite from Florida to Brazil and back.

Features

• Up to three years operating lifetime

• Micro-processor controlled battery charging

• Sensors: Temperature, Activity and Battery Voltage standard

• Hermetically sealed in rugged housing with harness mounting loops

Our commitment to continually stretch the technology to its limits, and to invest in the equipment necessary to design, build and test such devices in-house has led to this tiny PTT.
