The Cheap Beep Project has had several requests for hack (long run time) transmitters recently. I will be doing a batch of MAXI transmitters programmed for lower output and longer run time (8 weeks max). 7.5 grams. $35 per includes spare heat shrink, spare antennas and on/off magnet tool. Use CR2032 batteries (same as Marshall Scout).

Also have some pre-built 434 MHz MICRO transmitters available. $25 with accessories.

See previous post for other available items. Kits for all sizes and 433 or 434 MHz available as usual.

Regards,
