I have done some research and came to find that the ARVA EVO3+ is one of the best out there for the cheapest price.
Anybody have any downside to this beacon in particular?

Just find something you like and can learn to use effectively for exampleI have the tracker 2, its not to exspensive and super easy to use.

id say tracker 2 hands down. But like said above, something you are comfortable using. I use the really old ortovox f1 focus and i love it. it is simple and really reliable and i know exactly what im doing

The Tracker and Tracker 2 are hands down the best for ease of use... They're simply foolproof and reliable and worth the money.

As ^^ have said the tracker 2 is the way to go. I've had one for a while, it's incredibly reliable and easy to use.
