The Latest Lightning Detection System I'll Be Reviewing - XkyFire!

Some exciting news!

I'll be reviewing one of the most advanced Lightning Detection Systems out there!

The system was shipped to me, (from the Canadian wilderness) last week! I was a bit surprised, to see that the hardware used (delivered) was a Boltek system. For whatever reason, I suppose I was expecting a different branded system.
Well, the Boltek system I received is none other than The LRX-1 - This high-end Boltek system is a high accuracy, precision system.

This hardware/software combination, is a networked system. It is very thorough and it will be running XkyFire

Not only is it used by VIP client facilities, and places such as large resorts around North America...But also by NASA!
The system is based on The Boltek LRX-1.

The folks who are responsible for this lightning radar system, also do serious, real-life rescues in conjunction with the damaging storms! --- Lifeskill Rescue Services
I'll be updating the blog: as things progress… 

Also, although Part 1 and 2 of The Boltek LD-350 have been posted - I'm not 100% finished with Part 2 - I plan to add a bit more to it...

For now, I'll share a photo I took today, upon it's arrival:

Many more pics to follow!

Until next post,
Have fun tracking those lightning strikes!
