Ocean Signal RescueMe EDF1
Ocean Signal RescueME EDF1, Electronic Distress Flare
A reusable, LED-powered alternative to a traditional flare.
Overview
The Ocean Signal RescueME EDF1 is a super-bright, reusable hand-held signalling device suited to a wide range of outdoor activities, from marine use like boating, fishing, and kayaking, to land-based activities including hunting, hiking, and tramping.
Unlike traditional pyrotechnic flares, the EDF1 uses advanced ultra-intensive LED lighting, powered by long-life replaceable batteries. It's compact, waterproof to IP67 standard, and very easy to operate, and because it's battery powered, it can be used multiple times rather than once.
Key Features
- Ultra-intensive LED lighting means it's safe to use even where total fire bans are in place.
- Up to 6 hours constant light output means genuine endurance in an emergency.
- Reusable, replaceable batteries means it can be used multiple times, not just once like a pyrotechnic flare.
- Three modes plus SOS signalling means flexible use depending on the situation.
- Up to 7 mile range with 360-degree visibility means strong visibility for both air and sea-based search and rescue teams.
- Waterproof to IP67 means it holds up in rain, drizzle, or splashing.
- Compact and lightweight means just 187mm high, 42mm wide, and 155g.
Applications
- Boating, fishing, and kayaking
- Hunting, hiking, and tramping
