The Mammut Element was released in 2011 and discontinued in 2017.
The Mammut Element can be updated using a special wireless link. The ability to update your beacon is important, because it allows you to get enhancements and new features without purchasing a new avalanche transceiver. (Learn how to update other transceivers.)
The Element displays the version number in the upper-left corner of the display during startup.
It costs $30us to update the Element. The update can be done at about a dozen retail locations in the US and Canada as well as at the Mammut service centers in Vermont and British Columbia. Visit the Mammut dealer locator to find a dealer in your area. (Here is a list of dealers that were recently offering the update in the United States.)
