Understanding Water Sensor Functionality On React Boats

how does the water senor work on the react boat

The Pro Boat React RC Boat is a dynamic self-righting 17-inch Deep-V that comes with a range of impressive features, including a water sensor. The water sensor is designed to monitor the water presence in the bilge and prevent the boat from sinking. It does this by using a robust marine-grade float switch, which has to be held in an upward position for at least 30 seconds to avoid false alarms. If the sensor detects high water levels, it will alert the boat owner and all additional emergency contacts via voice call, SMS, email and push notifications.

The Pro Boat React RC Boat is a self-righting boat that can be rocked back and forth to get it back to a race-ready position

The React RC Boat is a great choice for racing as it is fast and manoeuvrable. It can be used in both saltwater and freshwater, and its self-righting feature means you can quickly get back into the race if you capsize. The boat comes ready to run out of the box, with a transmitter, receiver, battery and charger included.

One owner of the React RC Boat noted that the self-righting feature took a little practice to master, but that it was well worth it for the performance of the boat. They also noted that the boat was very fast and could be used in both a pool and a bay.

The self-righting feature of the Pro Boat React RC Boat is an important safety feature that helps to prevent the boat from sinking. The boat has a water sensor that continuously monitors the presence of water in the bilge, and a high water alarm that will alert the owner if the boat is taking on water. This helps to prevent not only a rapid sinking but also damage from stale rainwater that has accumulated in the bilge over time.

The Water Detect Plus Sensor will alert you if water reaches a certain level and a sump pump isn't on

The sensor works in tandem with a Vibration Meter, which is placed on a sump pump's tubing to sense that it's running. You can easily monitor the sensor on your smartphone, tablet, or computer.

The Water Detect Plus Sensor is also useful for building basement pits and across marinas in boat bilges. It can be used to monitor the water presence in the bilge and prevent a rapid sinking of your boat, as well as damage from stale rainwater accumulated in your bilge over time.

The Pro Boat React RC Boat is a dynamic self-righting 17-inch Deep-V that will never leave you "up a creek without a paddle". If you push the boat past its limit and go belly up, getting it back to a race-ready position is as simple as "rocking the boat" by hammering the throttle backward and forward.

The sensor performs a self-check every 24 hours and reports its health status

The React boat is equipped with a water sensor that performs a self-check every 24 hours and reports its health status. This sensor continuously monitors the water presence in the bilge and prevents not only a rapid sinking of your boat, but also damage from the stale rainwater accumulated in your bilge over time. The water detection is performed via a robust marine-grade float switch, which has to be held in an upward position for at least 30 seconds to avoid possible false alarms. The high water alarm will be delivered to the boat owner and all additional emergency contacts via an automated voice call, SMS, email and push notifications. The email and push messages will be repeated every three hours until the issue is resolved. The alert can also be forwarded to the selected Proactive Boat Care providers (marina, yacht service), enabling them to swiftly react and prevent potential disaster.
