100% Made in France. Thanks to its wide search strip width and improved features, the NEO Pro avalanche transceiver is the ideal compromise for regular users and mountain guides.
The NEO BT Pro is a new evolution of the NEO series with even better performance and more features. Already with the NEO+ and the Neo Pro, a new stage in terms of search performance has been reached.
Thanks to a new hardware base and an optimization of the software, the search strip width has been increased to 80 m for the NEO devices. The new version is also equipped with a motion sensor for automatic return to transmit mode and features a new type of carrying system that allows the device to be worn even in search mode. The system ensures a secure hold of the device when worn and includes a special concept for protecting the activation button to increase the level of safety in transmit mode. The NEO BT PRO is the new top model of the ARVA brand. It has all the "expert" features that are essential for professional rescue.
80M SEARCH BANDWIDTH
The search strip width corresponds to the width of the area "scanned" by the device in search mode. The larger the search strip width, the larger the search area covered by the device. It is often used to compare the performance of different devices.

80m search strip width Bandwith
The search strip width corresponds to the area “scanned” by the searching device. The larger the search strip width, the greater the area covered by the device. This feature is often used to compare beacon Performance
Autotest
When turning on your device it conducts an auto-check. This verifies battery levels, that the device is functioning properly, and signals any problems.
Group check
The group-check function allows you to easily verify if each member of your group has their beacon in transmit mode. The group-check function enables the device to conduct a fine search, allowing you to individually check the members of your group at a one-meter distance.
Revert-to-transmit
During a search, in the event of a secondary avalanche, the revert-to-transmit feature allows the device to automatically switch back to transmit mode. This switch is activated either by a timer after a certain period of time of user inactivity, or by a motion detector after a certain amount of time where the device has not moved. Configure these timeframes in your beacon’s settings menu.
Interference Management
Interference management maximizes the device’s performance in search mode in an environment “overrun” by electromagnetic interference. To accomplish this, the device in search mode automatically reduces the bandwidth and ignores all other frequencies to focus solely on the beacon being tracked. This feature can be deactivated by the user.
Marking function
Once a victim is found, the marking function allows you to ignore their signal to focus on searching for other victims. The “marked” victim’s signal is no longer indicated during the rest of the search.
Standby mode
A device in standby mode is neither searching nor transmitting. This function allows the user to work the avalanche without their device interfering with the ongoing search. In the event of a secondary avalanche, the revert-to- transmit function automatically switches the device back to transmit mode.
Scrolling function
The scrolling function allows you to more efficiently organize rescue operations by selecting a specific victim to track and dividing search responsibilities between rescuers. Although the victim’s identity is not displayed, a list of victims is generated in order of proximity, allowing you to select a victim based on their distance from you.
Bluetooth Technology range
The new companion to BT range Avalanche transceivers. Configure your avalanche transceiver directly from your smartphone,thanks to the ARVA app. The configuration includes, for example, the choice of fine search distance or standby time. Intuitive, fast and easy to use, setting up your device is child’s play.

who knows me, knows, that I sell exclusively PIEPS LVS for many years. This has nothing to do with the fact that I am a special friend of the company - but because PIEPS started small about 15 years ago. At that time they were simply far superior to the current "top dog" Ortovox, but very few on the market knew that.
Since then I invest a lot of time every year to test new LVS products. During the season or also in own test rows in the summer months.
Often other LVS devices are worse than PIEPS or max. similarly good. The ARVA NEO+ in the season 18/19 noticed that the participants of my camps or splitboard courses found it remarkably easy to use the device intuitively. Often participants had outdated devices of their own, with which they didn't get a good search result. The ARVA NEO+ always produced good to very good results. In a direct comparison of devices, the ARVA NEO+ was usually even ahead in terms of range.
Reason enough to expand my range to include the French manufacturer from Annecy.
In addition comes still 100% Made in France! Not even the company Pieps, which produces in Asia, manages that.
