The unique battery system utilizes a long-life, heavy-duty Hawker Cyclon 12 volt, rechargeable 6-cell battery pack. It is charged from the front panel using the 90 to 240 volt battery charger (internal). There is no need to open the housing to charge the battery pack. Further more, you don't have to worry about finding and installing 6-volt spring-type batteries, which is normally the case with older style intercoms.

The voltage level indicator is green when the batteries are fully charged. The yellow LED illuminates at 8.0 Volts giving you approximately 30 minutes of use. The red LED along with an intermittent tone alerts you that approximately 10 minutes are remaining (at 7.0 volts). The tone continues and the red LED will start flashing when the batteries are about to shut the system down.

 
 The Heavy Duty housing is rugged and made to endure the harsh marine environment. Plenty of rubber bumpers are located in convenient places. The robust handle make it easy to carry the package.

 
The top storage cover can be removed and stored in a convenient place when it is not necessary to have it attached. The upper housing is o-ring sealed. When the housing is closed and firmly locked in place, the o-ring helps keep out moisture.

 

The top storage lid is an ideal place to store a headset with boom microphone or hand-held microphone, spare parts, or small items you would need on a dive site.

Dimensions of the inside of the storage area: height: 5", depth: 10", width: 13"
