Cyclops smartbatten Load Sensors
Smartbatten monitors compressive loads on sail battens for precise shape control, installed between the batten and tightener. Lightweight at 22g with 1% accuracy, it offers 80-day battery life (extendable in napping mode) and syncs real-time data to apps or yacht electronics wirelessly. Ideal for data-driven sail adjustments in racing or cruising.

Cyclops’ New Sail Shape Control Technology
- Ensure Optimal Sail Performance
- Accurately monitor the load in the sail battens.
- Helps sailors hit fast, repeatable settings more precisely
- Gives live compressive load data
- Can be re-charged in less than one hour
How it works…
Despite advancements in sail technology, the traditional visual determination of batten compression settings often results in inaccuracies. in response, Cyclops Marine developed a smart solution placed between the batten and ‘rocket’ tightener, providing real-time compressive load data. This ensures sailing teams consistently achieve optimal settings.

- Precise control of sail shape
- Size 1 based on compressive load limits of 100kg to 400kg
- Smartbatten system includes sensor, adaptor and rocket/compression block with stud.
- Adaptor designed for integration into a C-Tech CT22 batten, other adaptor sizes available on request.
- Nett weight of system approximately 44g (including total system weight minus removed batten section)
- On/off button and remote app on/off
- Lightweight printed adapter
- Wireless charging
- Fully charged in 1 hour
- Up to 80 days battery life
- Data log for analysis stored in the smartfittings app
