ResQFlare
Product Description
The ResQFlare is a USCG-approved electronic boat flare kit that facilitates rescue by emitting the flash characteristic for the International Morse Code for S-O-S. The ResQFlare’s high-efficiency electronics allow it to maintain the USCG required 75 cd peak equivalent fixed intensity for over 20 hours (more than 3 times longer than the USCG requirement for maintaining this level of light intensity). With its user-replaceable battery power source (2 C Batteries), the ResQFlare provides years of service. As a result, boats are safer by negating the common inconveniences of pyrotechnic boat flares including their expiry dates and stringent mandatory disposal requirements.
ResQFlare Benefits vs. Traditional Pyrotechnic Boat Flares:
No expiration date
Family safe (no burning flame)
Easy to operate (so even your kids and first-time boaters can operate it in the event of an emergency)
No issues with the existing stringent mandatory disposal requirements for pyrotechnic flares (legally considered as hazardous materials)
Waterproof and Buoyant
One-time purchase (less cost over the life of the product)
