Description
Ocean Signal rescueME EPIRB2 Pro Cat I w/RLS & NFC is a compact, high-performance emergency position indicating radio beacon (EPIRB) designed for both recreational and commercial marine use. It is approximately 30% smaller than competing models and includes a Category I auto-release float-free bracket, which automatically deploys the device if the vessel sinks.
Key Features
- Return Link Service (RLS): Provides a blue flashing light confirmation once the distress signal is received and your location is detected by the Galileo satellite network, reducing user stress during emergencies.
- Near Field Communication (NFC): Allows you to access beacon data (battery life, test history, and activation time) directly on your smartphone via the Ocean Signal Product App by simply placing the phone near the device.
- Global Coverage: Utilizes the Cospas-Sarsat satellite network (406 MHz) and includes a 72-channel GNSS receiver (GPS, Galileo, Glonass) for position accuracy within 100 meters.
- Battery & Operation: Features a 10-year battery life and provides at least 48 hours of operational life even at extreme temperatures
- Visibility: Equipped with both high-intensity white and infrared strobes to aid search and rescue teams in low-light or night conditions.
