A Lightning Detector can detect a thunderstorm from 120KM away, track it to the boater and give estimated time of arrival!

 

This technology is here and already in use by government, militairy, utilities, schools, universities and other sports enthusiasts. It is 21st century technology that is a self-contained, personal weather warning system.

 

The Lightning Detector will tell you how much time you have before you are within the striking range of lightning. Boaters no longer need to worry about the threat of inclement weather, because now you can have a Lightning Detector aboard to provide the information you need to protect you and your passengers.

 

Most importantly, it gives you the time you need to head for a safe haven and know when it is safe to resume your boating activities!

 

WHAT BOATERS NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THUNDERSTORMS.

 

Lightning can strike out of a clear blue sky with no visual or audible warning. That’s because the warnings can be too far away to be seen or heard. Trees, hills and mountainous terrain can block the sound of thunder and cloud-cover can hide approaching storm activity.

 

Thunder can only be heard up to 6 kilometers away. However, lightning can strike from 16 kilometers away…. too soon to ever hear thunder. When you hear thunder, lightning has already happened and you are very close.

 

Believing that you can count the seconds between the lightning stroke and thunder is one of the most dangerous mistakes boaters make. A boater should never take a chance, believing that what you can’t see or hear won’t hurt you!
