The ALU 240 is the no frills, entry level probe for all weight conscious winter sports enthusiasts. Weighing in at 200 grams, it collapses and fits easy into your touring backpack, but can be deployed and ready to use in just seconds thanks to the quick-lock assembly system. The optimized adjusting screw quickly and easily sets the tension while the large probe tip ensures improved penetration. The color coded, intuitive visual guide system provides you with quick and clear information about the victim‘s depth so you can adapt your shoveling strategy and save rescue time.  The contrasting depth scale, colorful segments, and neon orange bottom segment indicate when you are approaching the victim.
