You may return most new, unopened items within 30 days of delivery for a full refund. We'll also pay the return shipping costs if the return is a result of our error (you received an incorrect or defective item, etc.).
You should expect to receive your refund within four weeks of giving your package to the return shipper, however, in many cases you will receive a refund more quickly. This time period includes the transit time for us to receive your return from the shipper (5 to 10 business days), the time it takes us to process your return once we receive it (3 to 5 business days), and the time it takes your bank to process our refund request (5 to 10 business days).
If you need to return an item, simply login to your account, view the order using the "Complete Orders" link under the My Account menu and click the Return Item(s) button. We'll notify you via e-mail of your refund once we've received and processed the returned item.
Developed in response to operational requirements identified by the London Fire Brigade, the LithMag Guardian-8 is an ultra-low water volume, high-pressure misting system designed to provide continuous cooling of electric vehicle battery packs during rescue and recovery operations.
Unlike conventional firefighting equipment, the Guardian-8 is intended for thermal management rather than fire suppression. It delivers an evenly distributed, high-efficiency cooling mist beneath the vehicle, reducing battery temperatures while firefighters conduct casualty extrication or prepare for tactical intervention.
By using a finely atomised water mist, the Guardian-8 achieves exceptional cooling performance while dramatically reducing water consumption and limiting the spread of contaminated run-off.
The LithMag doctrine recognises that excessive water application can generate significant volumes of contaminated run-off requiring environmental management.
The Guardian-8 supports a different approach.
Its eight precision nozzles generate a dense cooling mist that maximises heat absorption while using only a fraction of the water required by traditional hose streams. This allows responders to maintain battery cooling with greatly reduced environmental impact.
The low-profile design allows the Guardian-8 to be positioned beneath an electric vehicle where it continuously cools the battery enclosure while rescue teams perform occupant extraction.
Where thermal runaway gases are venting from inside the passenger compartment, the Guardian-8 may also be deployed through an open or broken window to create a high-density cooling mist inside the vehicle, helping reduce internal temperatures while maintaining a safe stand-off distance.
Each Guardian-8 is precision manufactured in the United Kingdom by Rotec Aerospace using high-quality aerospace engineering practices and materials.
The robust Steel construction and precision-machined manifold are designed for demanding operational environments where reliability is essential.
Features include:
✓ Rapid thermal reduction
✓ Ultra-low water consumption
✓ Reduced contaminated run-off
✓ Wide-area cooling coverage
✓ Supports firefighter safety during rescue operations
✓ Rugged aerospace-quality construction
✓ Compatible with high-pressure water supplies
Cooling System: High-pressure water mist
Nozzles: 8 precision misting nozzles
Construction: Precision-machined aluminium
Manufacture: United Kingdom
Engineering Partner: Rotec Aerospace
