Long Life Battery

When you’re sailing hard, the last thing you want to have to think about is the battery in your compass. That’s why we gave the Atlas 2 the longest battery life in the business, BY FAR. Over 100 hours on a wireless charge. Forget your charging pad? Use any Qi compatible charging pad, like the one you might use for your phone. And if you ever run low, you can get a full day of battery life while charging during breakfast. Even better, we sourced a battery so capable that we could design the Atlas 2 to never drain the battery to near empty, or charge fully. This scheme maximizes the battery longevity of your Atlas 2. You’ll never have to worry about it. Ever. One of the ways we ensure the longevity of the battery is by making it so the charging pad will not recognize the Atlas as charging if the battery is above 90%.

Dual Waterproof Speakers

Often the Atlas 2 will want to get your attention when you’re not looking. And the best way to do that is sound. Lots of it. So the Atlas 2 has a pair of loudspeakers built into the bottom of the case, protected by a clever waterproof membrane. Sound can get out, but water cannot get it. Volume and sounds are customizable in the Connect app, naturally. Look for more sound options in future versions of Vakaros Connect.

High Visibility Screen

The 4.4 inch (diagonal) transflective LCD screen is by far the easiest screen to read on the water. It is bonded to the latest generation Gorilla Glass outer screen for maximum protection. While small, the key to its legibility is its very high contrast ratio and high (91) pixel per inch count. By customizing the display layout, we have crews use the Atlas on boats in the 35-50 foot range. And due to its advanced technology, the brighter the sun, the easier the Atlas is to read. Sailing at night? Turn on the backlight with the Vakaros Connect app or enable automatic backlight to turn on when the ambient light drops below a user configurable level.
