Talos SFD1000R White Round with 20ft Cable
Model: 1525If you frequently spend time out on the water on your boat, jet ski, or kayak, then you need to learn about the TALOS lightning detector for boats and watercraft. Set sail and leave your worries behind knowing the TALOS lightning detector is on hand tracking when potentially dangerous lightning is in the area.
The TALOS lightning detector for boats and watercraft alerts users of lightning strikes up to 25 miles away from a storm. If your boat or watercraft is the only one in the vicinity when lightning strikes, the odds of being struck go way up. Most strikes occur between noon and 6 pm. Keeping the TALOS(R) lightning detector on board, will keep you aware when lightning is in the area.
When lightning is first detected (up to 25 miles), the detector will flash all 8 LEDs for 5 minutes. To save battery life, after 5 minutes of lightning detection, the detector switches to blinking every other LED for the remaining time that lightning is detected (red, blue, or green depending on distance of lightning).
The Talos SFD1000R is a flush-mount lightning detector designed for marine and outdoor applications. This device provides real-time alerts for lightning strikes up to 25 miles away, utilizing technology similar to that found in professional weather stations. It is suitable for businesses managing fleets of boats, jet skis, or kayaks, as well as facilities with outdoor operations where early lightning detection is critical for safety. The detector uses three distinct LED colors�green for 25 miles, blue for 16 miles, and red for 6 miles�to indicate the storm front's distance, alongside three audible beeps per detection. Its IP-67 waterproof rating and low power consumption ensure reliable performance in various weather conditions. The compact, round design allows for a clean installation, addressing the need for discreet yet effective environmental monitoring. This model, part number 1525, helps mitigate risks associated with lightning exposure by providing timely warnings.
