Electronic SOS Beacon Locator Kit

USCG-Compliant Signaling for Day & Night Emergencies: The Electronic SOS Beacon Locator Kit

When an emergency happens on the water, being visible to rescuers is critical regardless of the time of day. The Electronic SOS Beacon Locator Kit combines an electronic nighttime distress beacon with a USCG-approved daytime distress flag, providing dedicated signaling options for both conditions. The beacon automatically flashes the internationally recognized SOS pattern in Morse code and can be floated, carried, or suspended depending on the situation.

Thoughtful Emergency Design

Automatic SOS Signal: The electronic beacon flashes the SOS distress pattern in Morse code, providing a recognizable emergency signal without requiring you to manually operate the light continuously.

Nighttime USCG Compliance: The beacon complies with U.S. Coast Guard requirements for Night Visual Distress Signals under 46 CFR 161.013.

USCG-Approved Daytime Flag: The included orange distress flag complies with U.S. Coast Guard daytime signaling requirements under 33 CFR 175.130.

Day & Night Preparedness: Combining electronic nighttime signaling with a highly visible daytime flag provides dedicated distress signaling across changing light conditions.

Performance You Can Rely On

Extended Signal Duration: The beacon is designed to flash for twice the continuous runtime required by USCG standards.

Sustained Light Intensity: Maintains constant light intensity for 2.5 times longer than the applicable USCG requirement.

Elevated Light Source: When deployed in the water, the light extends approximately 4 inches above the waterline to improve visibility.

SOLAS-Grade Reflective Tape: Reflective material positioned at the waterline adds another high-visibility element to the beacon.

Built for Marine Emergencies

Multiple Deployment Options: The beacon can float independently, be held by hand, or be suspended depending on your location and emergency situation.

Waterproof On/Off Switch: A straightforward control is designed for intuitive operation in wet marine environments.

Double O-Ring Closure: Dual sealing provides additional protection for the beacon's internal components.

High-Visibility Construction: Bright orange ABS plastic makes the unit easier to locate among other marine and emergency equipment.

High-Impact Unibody Design: Rugged construction is engineered to withstand the demanding conditions associated with marine use.

Smart, Dependable Electronics

Low-Battery Indicator: When switched on, the beacon quickly flashes for five seconds if the batteries need to be replaced.

Encapsulated Microprocessor Electronics: Internal electronics are protected for greater reliability in demanding environments.

Replaceable Battery Power: Operates using two D-cell batteries, allowing fresh batteries to be installed without relying on access to a charger.

Independent Testing: The beacon has been independently tested by a U.S. Coast Guard-approved laboratory.
