Made for ski patrollers, guides, and those planning long tours and overnights, the Backcountry Access Float E2-45 avalanche airbag pack offers plenty of space plus reliable performance in cold temps.
- Alpride E2 supercapacitor system with 162-liter airbag; supercapacitor system stores energy that powers the compressor upon deployment
- Supercapacitors store and release energy based on electromechanical properties rather than a chemical reaction like in rechargeable batteries
- This makes supercapacitor performance much more reliable in cold temperatures, and the energy stored in a supercapacitor releases faster when activated for deployment
- You can install 2 AA batteries to allow for additional deployments in the field; batteries also help keep the supercapacitor at full charge when not in use
- 2 AA alkaline batteries allow for 1 additional deployment and are capable of keeping the system charged for up to 3 months of normal use
- 2 AA lithium batteries allow for 3 additional deployments and are capable of keeping the system charged for up to 5 months of normal use
- E2 engine is 40% smaller and 25% lighter than the Alpride E1 system and is TSA-approved for hassle-free airline travel
- Burly 45-liter pack with waterproof coated nylon
- Molded Cooling Fin back panel for ventilation
- Side Stash pocket and Back Stash zip make it easy to hydrate or swap hat, gloves, eyewear or skins while you’re on the go
- Top quick-cinch closure/lid
- Expandable internal roll-top design
- Dedicated shovel/probe/snowsaw compartment
- Curved side access zipper
- A-frame and diagonal ski carry
- Vertical snowboard carry
- BC Link radio- and hydration system-compatible (radio and hydration system not included)
- Removable compression straps
- Removable helmet/gear carry
- Hipbelt pocket and tool loop
- External loops for ice axe carry
- YKK zippers with durable water repellent (DWR) coating
- Made with PFAS chemicals
- Note: An avalanche airbag system does not guarantee survival in an avalanche; educate yourself, make good decisions and know before you go
