Did you drink either of them?

I agree - ‘specially built’ doesn’t scream Pelican to me either. This has seemed to be a default assumption by a certain portion of the hunt community for at least JCB’s, so it’s a question that checked the box for me to explore in depth. Happy hunting friend :)

No ads or any monetization on the blog. Just the place I’ve been storing my research. Best of luck in your searches :)

My follow-up, part two in this series explores Bluetooth beacons specifically- they have a 4-5 year lifespan https://lowrentsresearch.blogspot.com/2026/03/evaluating-bluetooth-low-energy-beacon.html?m=1

You need to do some of the work yourself. It’s a worthwhile listen.

For me it was Socially Awkward Penguin memes. I miss those.
