The Simplex Lite shares that frequency and rating with a smaller 9.5 x 6-inch SX24 coil. Both current models list sensitivity in 30 levels, against 6 levels on the Simplex+.
For more than one frequency, Nokta's Score runs Multi, or single 15 kHz at 2.6 lb. Nokta's warranty was 2 years on the Simplex+. It is 3 years on the Lite and Ultra.
