The Anabat Swift is a lightweight passive detector from Titley Scientific with built-in GPS and class leading battery life.

The Swift has an incredible battery life, recording full spectrum for up to 100 nights* on 8 convenient and readily available AA batteries. You can choose to use 4 or 8 AA batteries depending on your required deployment time to reduce battery wastage, or use the external power option. Record bats in full spectrum with sample rates up to 500 ksps or in the memory efficient zero crossing format, all in the one device. Lower sample rates and customized scheduling allow you to record audible wildlife with the acoustic microphone. A built-in GPS saves the location in the metadata of every file you save, and can also be used to log tracks for mobile transects. 2 SD card slots provide ample data storage capacity. All in an easy to deploy, compact, lightweight design.
