Set sail and leave your worries behind knowing the TALOS lightning detector is on hand tracking when potentially dangerous lightning is in the area.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 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 lightning detector on board will keep you aware when lightning is in the area.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMounting the Device:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp id=\"isPasted\"\u003eThe lightning detector detects low-level signals from lightning and must be mounted a minimum of 3 feet away from cell phones, wearables, or any other devices emitting electrical noise. If the detector goes through a sequence of all colors, this indicates that it is detecting electrical noise.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow it Works:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp id=\"isPasted\"\u003eWhen 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 the distance of the lightning).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlerts up to 25-mile range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe BRIGHTEST visual alerts: 3 colors to indicate the distance of approaching or departing storms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreen: 25 miles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlue: 16 miles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRed: 6 miles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe LOUDEST audible alerts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 beep forGreen: 25 miles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 beeps forBlue: 16 miles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3 beeps forRed: 6 miles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAuto sleep functionality**\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1-year battery life (*based on average usage)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAntenna auto tuning  increases efficiency\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe same technology is used in expensive weather stations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBattery powered: requires 4 AA batteries (lithium recommended)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e**When the unit is first turned on, the unit is in Normal Mode and will actively listen for lightning\/storm activity.

This advanced device provides early warning of lightning activity within a 25-mile radius, allowing you to take swift action and avoid dangerous storms while enjoying your watercraft adventures. Its compact design makes it easy to install and operate, giving you peace of mind during your outings. The lightning detector features bright visual alerts using three distinct colors—green, blue, and red—to indicate the proximity of approaching storms, accompanied by corresponding audible beeps for quick recognition. When lightning strikes are detected, the device initially flashes all eight LEDs for five minutes, then switches to blinking LEDs to conserve battery life. With an auto-tuning antenna and efficient power management, the TALOS lightning detector offers up to one year of battery life when using four lithium batteries, making it reliable for extended use. Easy to mount at least three feet away from electrical noise sources such as cell phones and wearables, this device ensures accurate detection and alerts without interference. The unit includes a mounting base and user guide, simplifying installation and setup. It also features an auto sleep mode that conserves batteries when storm activity subsides, and prompts for battery replacement when needed. This weather-ready device employs technology used in high-end weather stations, providing dependable storm tracking for watercraft enthusiasts. Keep your crew safe and enjoy worry-free excursions with the TALOS lightning detector, a vital safety accessory for anyone spending time on the water. Please note, per Prop 65, this product meets safety standards for consumer protection. Proper battery maintenance is critical; the device will beep twice and flash the LEDs when batteries are low, and batteries should be removed when not in use to prolong device lifespan.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eAlerts up to 25-mile storm detection range\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eBright visual alerts with three color indicators: Green (25 miles), Blue (16 miles), Red (6 miles)\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eAudible alert system with one, two, or three beeps corresponding to storm proximity\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eCompact, lightweight design for easy installation on boats and watercraft\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eAuto tuning antenna enhances detection accuracy and efficiency\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eAuto sleep mode conserves battery when storm activity is low or inactive\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eBattery life of up to 1 year with four lithium AA batteries\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eIncludes mounting base and comprehensive user guide for straightforward setup\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eAdvanced lightning detection technology used in professional weather stations\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eProp 65 compliant for safety and health standards\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cstyle\u003etable.productattributes, .productattributes td { border-bottom: 1px solid #ddd; border-collapse: collapse; padding: 2px; text-align: left; }\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"productattributes\"\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eTruck Freight: No\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eOversized: No\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eOwners Manual Url: https:\/\/productimageserver.com\/literature\/ownersManual\/106788OM.pdf\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"TALOS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44253920821337,"sku":"106788","price":159.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0623\/1818\/2489\/files\/106788XL.jpg?v=1785362631","url":"https:\/\/www.marinepartsonly.com\/products\/talos-in-motion-lightning-detector-for-boats-and-watercraft-with-mounting-base","provider":"Marine Parts Only","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
