Product Description
La Crosse Technology UV100 Ultraviolet Watch: Home & Kitchen. Designed for rugged outdoor use, this plastic-encased watch is water-resistant up to 50 meters and has a backlit screen for use once the sun has gone down. A great gadget for skiers, surfers, kayakers, or anyone doing physical activity in the sun, this ultraviolet watch monitors the current levels of UV radiation and warns against over-exposure. A powerful UV sensor on top of the watch detects radiation using the UV Index--a spectrum adopted by the International Commission on Illumination (CIE) that measures the intensity of UV rays at the Earths surface as it relates to the average skin response. In UV Index mode, the watch reports the UV Index range numerically (with 2 or lower being the lowest level of exposure and 11 or higher indicating extreme levels of exposure), and via a color-coded chart along the watch face top. Two UV Index alarms can be set to signal when radiation levels move above a determined low level to a set maximum level. The main LCD screen has the usual watch features of a watch: it displays the current time in hours, minutes, and seconds; the numeric date; and the day of the week. Additionally, the UV Index color-coded chart shows along the top of the screen. In this mode, the watch can be programmed to chime hourly and sound an alarm at each date change and/or a set time. Other functions of the watch include a 24-hour countdown timer and a chronograph that measures elapsed time, accumulative elapsed time, or time for one lap. The chronograph calculates time in hours, minutes, seconds, 1/100 second, and has a maximum counting range of 9 hours, 59 minutes, and 59.99 seconds. La Crosse Technology covers the UV100 under a one-year warranty.
