Mini IPS
Compact avalanche victim detector -
The Mini IPS from the brand Pieps is an ultra-compact avalanche transceiver designed to offer maximum safety without compromising on performance, catering to both novices and experts who prioritise lightness and high technology.
Its very compact size and featherweight of 158 g including batteries make it easy to carry in your pocket. This transceiver is equipped with the Interference Protection System (IPS), an innovative system that ensures maximum signal stability during transmission and protects the device from interference, guaranteeing optimal power to maximise the chances of being located. This technology complements the excellent signal processing quality, which delivers reliable and consistent directional indications even in critical situations. The adjustable dynamic bandwidth (50, 35, and 20 metres) offers a maximum range of 50 metres for initial probing.
The Mini IPS is also equipped with Auto Search-to-Send (Auto-Revert), which automatically switches the transceiver to transmission mode after a period of inactivity thanks to a motion sensor. The Ghost Signal Elimination function filters out spurious signals from non-transceiver sources to facilitate the search. The user experience is optimised by the Search Assist Plus feature, a visual aid displayed at the top of the screen indicating the correct search speed. This pictographic guidance shows whether to accelerate, slow down in a controlled manner, or lower the device towards the snow, ensuring the correct pace is maintained both during the initial search phase and the precise final search phase.
The device also includes a fast and reliable group check function, allowing all transceivers in the group to be tested before departure, with an adjustable verification distance of 3 metres via the PIEPS app. Power is supplied by two AAA batteries (minimum battery life of 300 hours with alkaline batteries and 400 hours with lithium batteries). Additionally, thanks to Bluetooth® connectivity and the PIEPS app, software updates can be installed, individual settings managed, and full device control performed, ensuring the Mini IPS is always up to date and ready to use. Additional features, such as the power-off reminder and the switch lock mechanism, enhance the operational reliability of this ultra-compact and sophisticated transceiver.

| Interference Protection System (IPS) | Unique technology that compensates for the influence of electronic and metallic interference on the transmitting device by analysing and adapting to the interference source. Ensures maximum signal stability and reliably protects against electronic interference in transmit mode. Compensates for a large part of the interference, but a minimum distance from potential interference sources is recommended: 20 cm in transmit mode and 50 cm in search mode. |
| Search Assist Plus | Visual aid with pictographic instructions to choose the correct search speed. A small figure icon on the screen indicates the movement speed (accelerate, slow down in a controlled manner, or lower the device). Makes the search more intuitive, smooth and controlled, helping both beginners and professionals maintain the pace. |
