Plug in PengyBAT
Connect the little detector to your compatible Android phone.
I have. And it's fascinating!
It's also why PengyBAT exists. And why I want to share it with you.
Bats are out there, hunting and calling to each other in sounds we can't hear. PengyBAT lets you listen, see their calls on your Android phone, and find out what might be flying past.
The whole lot. VAT and UK delivery included.
No knobs, no specialist training, and absolutely no need to understand what a kilohertz is.
Connect the little detector to your compatible Android phone.
See bat calls as they happen, listen to them, and save the interesting ones.
Discover when bats turn up and explore what species they might be.
Bat detectors aren't new. They've been around for years — and many are expensive specialist instruments.
I thought more people should be able to enjoy this extraordinary little world. So I made PengyBAT.
I'm not trying to turn you into a bat expert. I just want you to experience the same delight I get when the garden suddenly comes alive.
Everything you need to discover bats.
Except the bats.
Including VAT. Delivered anywhere in the UK.
* Depending on weather, acts of God, and the postman turning up.

PengyBAT is designed for Android phones with suitable USB connectivity. Not every Android phone is guaranteed to work. A free, pre-purchase phone-check feature is planned; we'll explain compatibility clearly before orders open.
Yes — the software is free to use with a compatible ultrasonic USB microphone. It must support the format and sample rate the app expects; an ordinary USB voice microphone won't do the job.
It can help suggest an identification from recorded calls, but bat calls vary and some species are difficult to tell apart. Think of it as a knowledgeable companion, not an infallible bat oracle.
Afraid not. They're in charge of their own timetable.
