Yeah, who knows that i didn't :v Anyway i recognized it in a split second 'cause i recently watched A View to a kill and was trying to enjoy the movie ....LOL , but was also trying to make something out of this credit card gadget.
Any ideas Ed?? or better pics?
BR,
Teppo

Sorry got distracted whilst typing this and a flood more posts came in
OK, just to explain in real world terms what an Avalanche tranceiver is and does. All skiers, when skiing off piste SHOULD wear one. It is set to permanently transmit it's homing signal whilst you are out skiing. If an avalanche occurs and one of your party is caught in it, all other members then set their transceivers to receive and then using a grid search pattern, home in on the one tranceiver that is still transmitting ie the victim. Hope that helps as far as the explanation goes.
Nice quiz item Ed, do you have one? The tranceiver not the Thermos
Nope...don't have one.
I photographed the one in the pic at the SpyFest convention on the premiere of Goldeneye. Dave Worall had it on display and was nice enough to let me take pics.

I do believe that this one is the detonator used to ignite the Dentonite around Sanchez's window in Licence to Kill?
