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 distance of lightning).

Where to Mount the Sign

Mount the sign a minimum of 3 feet away from any devices emitting electrical noise to avoid false positive signals. The sign can be placed on any nonmetallic flat service.

Battery Instructions & Installation

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.

SFD-1000-G TALOS Lightning Detector
Why does my lightning detector say a storm is near, when the closest storm is over 25 miles away? What is occurring is a phenomenon called “ducting”.  This is something that is more common with higher frequencies, but can also occur at 500KHz (where we listen for lightning).  Ducting occurs when there is a thunderstorm or hurricane that creates a channel of moist warm air between cooler air above and below due to upward […]
