Easy to Use: Simple activation, even with wet or gloved hands, for reliable performance in critical moments. Long-Distance Visibility: Visible from 3 to 6 nautical miles, increasing your chances of being spotted by rescuers. SOS Signal: Automatically outputs an SOS signal within its flash pattern for enhanced emergency communication. Battery Flexibility: Uses 4 user-replaceable batteries (L91 Lithium or AA Alkaline); 4 Lithium batteries included for immediate use.

Location Based Liverpool, but ail anywhere in UK
Excellent alternative to the pyrotechnic handheld pinpoint red flare for "final mile" location, with none of the serious problems and limitations and indeed serious dangers of pyrotechnics. Not as bright as the pyrotechnic flare, but perfectly adequate for "final mile" location, and with a vastly longer "burn time". However despite the SOS code within the signal I do not believe it is effective for initially raising the alert, and that is much more reliably done by VHF, with the backup of EPIRB or PLB if unable to raise the alert by VHF. In terms of operation it is a close competitor to the ODEO Mk 3, and also to the Ocean Signal product, all at about the same price, and I am not convinced that there is anything to choose between any of them. However it does have a different size and geometry to the other two, and which one prefers is entirely a matter of preference - and perhaps also of any constraints on where it will be stowed.
