Uwatec NEVERLOST

Uwatec®NeverLost is a personal diving instrument that allows a diver to determine the direction and calculate the distance to the boat or other point from which the dive originates. All direction calculations are computer controlled in real time and displayed to the diver by way of an easy to read LCD. Distance information is computer calculated and displayed on the same LCD, on demand. This information further improves diver safety, and allows for a more relaxed return to the entry point. The Uwatec® NeverLost consists of two instruments; a stationery "home" instrument that-s placed in the water at the entry point and a roving "diver" instrument, that is carried by the diver. The Uwatec® NeverLost utilises a patented algorithm that controls the relaying of coded ultrasonic signals between the two devices, while simultaneously performing all direction and distance calculations. With an operating distance of up to 300 meters (1000 ft) the Uwatec® NeverLost is suitable for most open water diving applications. The ultrasonic signals cannot be heard by divers and should not interfere with sealife. Uwatec® NeverLost is ideal for both the individual diver or large dive boat operator, with the capacity for up to 30 receivers to be linked with an individual home instrument. Uwatec® NeverLost is compact and easily carried in a dive bag. The diver instrument is equipped with a lanyard and fits snugly into a BCD pocket. The home instrument contains a strong line for easy attachment to the boat, anchor line or other underwater structure. The instruments can be purchased together or separately to meet the needs of the individual diver or charter operator.
