Hi Paula, thank you for your question on the Shark Banz 2. A shark has something known as a "sixth sense" called the Ampullae of Lorenzini. It works as an electroreceptor which is similar to a dolphin or bat's echolocation but even more extreme. When a fish swims, or even moves its gills, it creates a change in the surrounding geomagnetic field that sharks can detect with the sixth sense. Since the shark is tuned to be looking for very weak electromagnetic signals from its prey (heartbeats, muscle movements), this organ is highly sensitive. When encountered in the wild, the Shark banz field is exponentially greater than anything the animal will have experienced before and highly unpleasant. This only works because of the large magnet inside the band. I hope this has answered your question! Please let us know if you have anymore and thank you for choosing Divers Supply!
