THE WAIT IS ALMOST OVER – GET READY FOR THE FREEDOM8 SHARK DETERRENT
If you spend your life in the water, you’re already familiar with the inherent risks. We love the ocean, respect it and share it with some of the planet’s most powerful apex predators. Whether you’re spearfishing off the coast logging hours on a commercial dive or simply enjoying the surf that lingering “what if” feeling is completely natural.
At Sentinel Ocean Systems, we believe you shouldn’t have to compromise your passion for the water for peace of mind. That’s why we’ve been working tirelessly behind the scenes – Freedom8 shark deterrent is officially coming soon.
What Makes the Freedom8 Different?
When lives are on the line, gimmicks aren’t our concern. The Freedom8 is grounded in rigorous peer-reviewed science and employs proven SharkShield electrical field technology to create a three-dimensional protective shield around you.
Sharks hunt using highly sensitive electroreceptors called Ampullae of Lorenzini located on their snouts. Approaching the Freedom8’s field causes them immense discomfort, compelling them to turn away long before they reach a dangerous proximity. This makes it an incredibly effective safety measure while ensuring no permanent harm is done to the animal.
Built for the Real World
We know that safety gear only works if you actually want to wear it. The Freedom8 is designed to be as unobtrusive as it is powerful:
- Deep Dives: Rated for a maximum operating depth of 50 meters (164 feet), making it perfect for serious divers and spearfishers.
- All-Day Power: The rechargeable lithium-ion battery delivers a massive 6 to 7 hours of continuous protection on a single charge.
- Tough Design: Featuring a rugged, braided antenna designed to trail naturally in the water without getting in your way.
