TALOS SFD-1000-P Standard Lightning Detector for Pools and Spas with Mounting Base

Standard Lightning Detector for Pools Spas with Mounting Base

Enjoy your leisure time at the pool while knowing the TALOS pool lightning detector will keep you aware of approaching lightning or storms. Lightning commonly strikes water, and since water conducts electricity, a nearby lightning strike could kill or seriously injure a swimmer. Dont be caught off guard while having fun in the pool, spa, or hot tub!

Mounting the Device:

Mount the lightning detector a minimum of 3 feet away from cell phones, wearables, or other devices emitting electrical noise. The detector will go through a sequence of all colors when it detects electrical noise interference. If this happens, relocate the detector.

How it Works:

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 the distance of the lightning).

Features:

• Up to 25 miles range
• Waterproof
• The BRIGHTEST visual alerts: 3 colors to indicate the distance of approaching or departing storms
• Green: 25 miles
• Blue: 16 miles

Note:It is necessary to replace batteries as soon as the lightning detector indicates the batteries are almost dead. The detector will beep and flash the LED twice indicating that batteries need to be replaced. This alert is given every 10 seconds. If you are not using the lightning detector, make sure you remove the batteries prior to storing the detector.
