Tools and Hardware Reviews of A100 Aqua Alert Water Activated Safety Band, White/Blue
Customer Review: The description might be misleading
Summary: 4 Stars
For under $5, this device seems like a good water alarm detector. Upon receiving the unit, I took it apart to see how it works. Turns out the device appears to work by shorting electrodes together. There are 4 pairs of electrodes on the top side where the Aqua Alert logo is. I haven't thoroughly test out the circuit, but it seems that you could activate the alarm by either pressing the test button or short any of the electrode pins. The wristband doesn't connect to the alarm circuit at all. That's why it's really misleading when the package says "Alarm is activated when wristband gets wet". I don't think the alarm would go off at all if the only wristband is submerged in water. You would need the entire unit to be under water in order for the alarm to go off since water would act as a shorting medium between the electrode pins. Maybe the word "wristband" is just a poor choice of word. With some minor modification, this will make an excellent water leak detector since it's quite small and the unit is water proof.
