Finding your way underwater is a skill we all should have, but sometimes we need a little help. Wreck divers have long since known the benefits of having a marker light attached to the shot line at the bottom, especially when extended decompression is required. Finding your way back to the shot line, the safety of the group, decompression station and boat cover with drop bottles should not be a matter of luck or yours might run out quickly. Simply attach the Pathfinder about 10-15ft above the wreck using the supplied locking clip and find your way back to safety.
STROBE CLIPPED TO SHOT LINE.
The problem with strobes commercially available at the moment is despite their claims of depth capability, they flood. Regularly. They also flash too slowly to be of use when your looking round for the marker, you can turn your head and miss it. We built the Pathfinder because we needed it, now you can benefit from that and have one too.
We can state with confidence that there is no other strobe for underwater use that exceeds the performance of the Pathfinder. What sets us apart from other strobes is our personal guarantee that this one won’t let you down. We offer the purchaser a two year warranty against failure due to flooding and no user requirements for maintenance apart from charging it and rinsing it . Just what you expect from Narked at 90. Built without compromise
The Pathfinder strobe is activated with a twist of the collar and has a NiMh rechargeable battery inside that gives extremely long burn times between charging. There are no seals or caps to remove to charge, simply connect to the external connections to charge. The charger is included and operates from 100-250Vac. and has connections for world wide use
We firmly believe it will save lives or at the very least, give you confidence that support will never be far away.

STROBE DIVING PROCEDURE
When diving very deep wrecks, or engaging in extended decompression there are significant risks involved to the divers. To name but a few, drifting long distances in currents and getting lost, insufficient gas in the event of a failure or even which set of divers the skipper/boat should follow. In light of these and many other risks, it is essential that the divers return to the decompression station via the shot line.
The usual procedure is the skipper will shot the wreck with a fixed line. The first set of divers will tie what is commonly known as a "waster" to the wreck and detach the anchor to be sent up by lift bag. A decompression station will be clipped to the main shot by a 'lazy' and each diver will apply a name tag to that clip. As each diver reaches near the wreck, they position a Pathfinder to the shot line above the wreck where it can be seen from a distance. In low visibility or darkness, the diver can find his way back to the shot. On ascent, each diver will remove his name tag and when only the last name tag remains, the last diver will detach the station so all the divers drift effortlessly with the decompression station. Low stress, maximum safety.
