Safety Alert: Mammut issues recall for Barryvox 2 and S2 avalanche beacons

Mammut is voluntarily recalling its Barryvox 2 and Barryvox S2 avalanche beacons from the Winter 2024-25 season after discovering a potential defect in the power switch. The Swiss outdoor equipment company noted that lateral pressure on the switch may inadvertently toggle the device from “Send” to “Search” mode or even turn it off, posing a safety risk.

The issue, traced to an assembly flaw, affects only new avalanche beacons Barryvox 2 and Barryvox S2 from the Winter 24/25 season, while older versions remain unaffected. Mammut urges customers to return their devices for a free inspection and, if necessary, a repair or replacement.

Affected users are asked to submit their details via Mammut’s online return form. Customers can expect inspected or replacement devices to be returned within seven business days.

More information from Mammut on the issue.
