Is this device worth the money?

In the fishing and seafood sector, every penny counts. Between diesel prices, staff costs and the expense of nets, you want to get your money’s worth for every penny you spend. So, it’s only natural to ask:
‘Is it really worth spending this money on the DOLPINGER acoustic deterrent device?’ Without beating about the bush, without hiding behind fancy words, let’s answer directly in the language of seafarers and with maths: Yes, it’s worth every penny. Why? Let’s work it out together.
1. You’re Actually Paying
for a ‘Tear-Resistant Net’, Not the Device Itself ✅ The cost of the net twine and lead/cork weights you spend every time the net tears,
✅ the hours and labour your crew spend repairing the net,
✅ and, most importantly, the days you lose because you can’t go out to sea whilst the net is being repaired.
✅ We don’t think there’s any need to explain the stress and frustration you endure.
DOLPINGER protects your net from tearing, saving you tens of thousands of lira in these hidden costs every season. You pay for the device once, but you’re spared the hassle of net repairs every month.
2. The Cost of Lost Catch Exceeds
the Price of the Device ✅ You’re not heading out to sea to take a gamble, but to earn your livelihood. When fish strike your net and dolphins swoop down to eat them, one of two things happens: either they eat the fish directly, or the sounds they emit scare off the school of fish, causing them to escape the net.
Consider the financial value of the fish you lose per trip due to dolphins. DOLPINGER creates an invisible barrier around your net with its variable sound in the 5–400 kHz range. It keeps dolphins at a safe distance, leaving the fish in the net. The catch you save in just a few trips alone will pay for the device itself.
3. You’re
Not Taking a Gamble by Buying an Imported Device You may come across cheaper or more expensive imported (foreign) pinger devices on the market. However, there are two major risks with those devices:
✅ Habituation Effect: As they emit a fixed-frequency sound, dolphins become accustomed to the sound after one month and return to the net. Your money goes to waste. DOLPINGER, on the other hand, uses adaptive (variable) frequencies, making it biologically impossible for dolphins to get used to the sound.
✅ Customs and Service Headaches: If an imported device takes on water or breaks down, you’ll have no one to turn to; even if you do find someone, you’ll be stuck waiting at customs for weeks, and your fishing season will be over. DOLPINGER is 100 per cent locally manufactured. It comes with a one-year one-to-one replacement guarantee. If it breaks down, your season won’t be cut short; you’ll have direct access to the manufacturer’s engineers.

In summary: Not an Expense, but a Self-Funding Investment
DOLPINGER is not an expense. From the moment you purchase it, it prevents net damage and lost catch, so it pays for itself completely within an average of 1 to 3 months.Once the device has paid for itself, all the profit it generates for your boat or facility for the remainder of the season goes straight into your pocket. Do you want to leave your hard work and earnings at sea to chance, or secure them with technology? The choice is yours.
