Compact lifebuoy for travelling
The OneUP Pocket is a handy rescue throwing device the size of a 0.5 litre can and weighs just 370 grams. It is a practical addition to equipment for leisure activities on or near the water. On contact with water, the ring inflates automatically and provides 110 newtons of buoyancy, which is equivalent to around 11 kilograms of buoyancy. The eye-catching yellow colour ensures good visibility. Suitable for boats, camping, beach visits or fishing trips - wherever quick help is needed in an emergency. Please note: The approved OneUP Nautic Pro version is required for use on Swiss waters, including Lake Constance

Corrosion-free ball valve
The hull diffusers and seacocks from Truedesign have one major advantage: they are made of plastic and are therefore not susceptible to corrosion. However, there is also a disadvantage: with the same internal diameter, the nylon composite ball valves have larger dimensions than comparable valves made of brass or bronze. Truedesign now also offers a version in a compact design. The ball valves in 1/2 and 3/4 inch can therefore also be used in tight spaces. The clear difference in size can be seen in the sketch.

Loaded and secured
The Scanstrut Aura SC-CW-12F wireless charging cradle offers a practical solution for charging smartphones on board. The waterproof device combines inductive charging with a secure holder for use at sea. The phone remains reliably fixed in place when the boat moves. The Aura charging cradle works with an input voltage of 10 to 30 volts and is therefore suitable for standard 12 and 24 volt vehicle electrical systems. The charger delivers up to 2 amps of output current with a charging power of 10 watts. The IPX6 certification confirms its waterproofness. Drainage openings allow water to run off.
