Product Description

Knowing the average lightning strike is 6 miles long and that thunder can generally be heard over a distance of 3-4 miles it isn't very difficult to understand why many lightning deaths and injuries occur with clear skies overhead. The compact SkyScan detector uses a fully digital microprocessor enclosed in a weather-resistant ABS Case to scan for the electronic traces of a lightning storm. By using separate audible and visual alerts the SkyScan detector is able to give you the approximate distance of an existing storm in miles (0-3 3-8 8-20 20-40). By recognizing the progression of the storm distances you can tell if the storm is approaching directly or just passing by.
