The Elekon BATLOGGER M is an advanced full-spectrum bat detector designed for active bat monitoring, transect surveys and bat walks. Combining high-quality ultrasonic recording, integrated GPS tracking and real-time live monitoring, the BATLOGGER M provides a compact and versatile solution for professional bat survey work.
The detector records ultrasonic bat calls in real-time full-spectrum audio, preserving amplitude and harmonic detail for detailed analysis. Every recording is automatically geotagged using the integrated GPS, allowing survey routes and bat activity to be mapped accurately.

Designed for Active Bat Surveys
The BATLOGGER M is designed specifically for mobile bat monitoring and transect work. Its integrated GPS automatically assigns location data to every recording, making it easy to map activity and review survey routes later in software such as Google Earth or GIS platforms.
The built-in heterodyne live monitoring system automatically tunes to bat calls as activity is detected, allowing surveyors to monitor bats in real time through the internal speaker or headphones.
Flexible Recording Modes
The BATLOGGER M supports a range of recording modes to suit different survey situations, including:
- Scheduled recording
- Permanent recording
- Instant recording
- Custom trigger thresholds for call identification
Recordings and metadata are stored in open WAV and XML formats, allowing compatibility with a wide range of bioacoustic software packages.
BATPARS Editor Software
The included BATPARS Editor Software allows users to configure and customise detector settings on both Windows and Mac computers. Recording parameters, schedules and trigger settings can be adjusted quickly and exported to the detector.
