Ultrasonic recording × IP67 waterproof × long-life power supply | Standard device for bat surveys Song Meter SM5BAT
The Song Meter SM5BAT is an outdoor long-term field recorder that can accurately record bat ultrasonic sounds (echolocation). Based on the field technology of Wildlife Acoustics, this model significantly enhances environmental resistance, power performance, and recording quality. With support for ultrasonic microphones, it captures a wide range of bat sounds with high precision. Additionally, features such as an IP67 waterproof housing, GPS synchronization, Bluetooth configuration, and multiple power options (alkaline/lithium/external power/solar) enable stable long-term operation even in harsh survey environments like forests, riverbanks, and near caves. It is ideal for surveys requiring long-term and wideband recording, such as environmental assessments in wind power projects, bat habitat monitoring, and nighttime behavior analysis. **Main Research Areas:** - Animal Behavior (especially bat behavior) - Bioacoustics - Ecology - Conservation Biology - Environmental Assessment (bat surveys)
