I found a used spot locator beacon - other than re registering it, are there any other considerations? ( besides getting the right batteries)
Is there a way to test it?

For a SPOT (which is not a PLB) Which version? Do not buy the first Gen. Second is adequate, but wouldn't personally take anything less than 3rd Gen. (current version).
Just have to register it. Takes regular batteries.
As to an actual PLB, unless it's real cheap and fairly new, not worth it. Cost to replace a battery is generally more than half the cost of a new one.
