    This is very helpful, thank you! I'm wondering why you use both detectors, and not just the Anabat? Is the sound better on the Pettersson unit?

    I have recently purchased a magenta bat 4 detector. Easy to use. However, I'd like to know what the output socket can be attached to and how.

    Can I attract pipistrelle bats into my garden by attracting insects at night using a UV floodlight ? I noticed that my neighbours have pips routinely flying across their gardens, and the pips also come towards my windows at night feeding on moths attracted by internal light but not into my garden yet it contains much mature foliage.

    smart phone radiation is very hazardous to bats - 5 seconds within 20ft will result in serious DNA fragmentation = genetic disease ad infertility, dementia and behavioural problems of any bat born to mothers exposed to even brief periods of radiation. You guys are a major threat to bat conservation smart meters wifi etc will end all bat populations associated with human habitats
