Any way to add a timer to the pump? When the water current stops,
time to get out.
An underwater light that goes off or comes on at the end of a timer
cycle would probably work as well. Or unless pool is in full sunlight
all the time, perhaps a waterproof strobe light above the splash
zone, which could be completely separate from the existing pool
setup. Looking at a dive watch would break the swimming rhythm, and a
clock on the bottom would have to be awful big to be easily readable.
If all he is trying to do is telling himself when to get out (not
interested in lap times, etc), then all he really would need to do is
set an alarm clock for however long he wanted to swim and then get out
when it went off. Battery operated or even a cell phone.
Not so sure that will work due to noise of the water, both the pumping
and his splashing as he swims.
Not to mention, how do you do timed laps in a wave pool? You are not
actually moving relative to the edges of the pool, as I understand it.
Duration of the session is about the only thing you can time.
