Handbarcodescanner Newland BS80 Piranha II 1D/2D CMOS bedraad draadloos

The Newland BS80 Piranha II is a lightweight handheld barcode reader available in 1D or 1D+2D variants with a CMOS scanning engine. Both versions read barcodes from paper and screens; the 2D model includes a red laser aimer for faster target acquisition. The device supports wired and wireless connectivity (USB-C and Bluetooth 4.0) and offers up to 50 meters wireless range, a built-in lithium-ion battery, and an IP42 drop-resistant design for everyday use.

Advantages

The BS80 Piranha II provides reliable barcode capture for a wide range of 1D and 2D codes, simple Bluetooth pairing with Android, iOS and Windows hosts, and dual-mode operation for real-time transfer or offline batch collection. It includes a fast USB-C port for charging and data transfer, pogo-pin cradle charging, and optional multi-bay cradles that can be daisy-chained to charge multiple scanners from a single power supply. The unit is compact and lightweight (approx. 63 g) for extended handheld use.

How to use

Power on the scanner and pair it to your host device via Bluetooth 4.0 or connect with a USB-C cable. Aim the scanner at the barcode, using the red laser aimer on 2D models to align the code, then press the scan button to capture. For real-time mode, scanned data transmits immediately to the connected host. To collect data offline, switch to batch mode; the built-in 1 MB memory stores scans for later download over Bluetooth or USB. Use the Delete button to remove the last entry and the Function button to present a virtual keyboard for manual input when needed.

Recommendations

For stable wireless operation keep the host device within the typical Bluetooth range (up to 50 m in open areas) and use the USB-C connection or cradle when charging or transferring large batches of stored data. Use the optional multi-bay cradle configuration to charge multiple scanners efficiently in shared workspaces.
