Disc Beeper says this about the Disc Beeper: The Disc Beeper is an electronic device that is centrally placed underneath a Disc or Frisbee that allows players to easily find their Disc or Frisbee especially during the sport "Disc Golf." This device only weighs 6 grams and shows absolutely no noticeable effect on disc flight. Disc Beeper also has a waterproof design. It has 3 distinct modes that allows up to 3 players to play at once. Disc Beeper has a push-button to turn it on requiring 550 grams of force to engage. Once the Disc Beeper is turned on, there is a 45 second delay to allow launch and attempted retrieval, allowing the user to throw it and will beep every 3 seconds until you turn it off. Disc Beeper is rechargeable via included micro usb cord. It holds up to 7-8 hours under 1 charge of 1 hour.
For anyone who plays the game Disc Golf (Frisbee Golf), You have probably lost one of your discs. This is frustrating because these discs typically cost around $20. Disc Beeper is a new product that attaches to the disc of your choice and produces an audible beeping sound that can be heard from over 200 feet away allowing you to find you disc every time!
Disc Beeper is the size of a US quarter and weighs 6 grams so it will not effect the flight of your disc (confirmed by many professional Disc Golf Players). It is waterproof, rechargeable (via micro-USB), and lasts for 6 hours on a single charge. It attaches to your disc with some of the strongest adhesive tape in the world (3M VHB) so it will not come off even after hard tree-strikes.
Each Disc Beeper Includes: Disc Beeper, Alcohol Swab, Primer Pen, Usb Cable and Sticker. (hide)
I think I may just skip on this one...my curiosity for how effective this device is growing on me, however.
Eh, I will try it and post a review. You never know.
play a course that is prone to eat discs for an accurate review :thmbup:
As I understand it, you can't remove the Disc Beeper w/o destroying the disc, but I have been wondering if you couldn't manage to get it off with a razor blade since the adhesive pad seems to have enough thickness for the blade.
