The rescueME PLB1 OverviewWherever you are at sea or on land, the rescueME PLB1 provides the reassurance that emergency services can be alerted by the press of a button. The rescueME PLB 1 works with the only officially recognized worldwide dedicated search and rescue satellite network (operated by Cospas-Sarsat). As this is funded by governments there are NO CHARGES to use this service. |
How it WorksWhen activated, the rescueME PLB1 transmits your position and your unique ID to a Rescue Coordination Center via satellite. Rescue services are promptly notified of your emergency and regularly advised of your current location. To assist with search and rescue, a homing signal is transmitted on 121.5MHz, which is received by equipment fitted to both sea and airborne rescue craft. The integrated strobe light ensures maximum visibility. |
Simple ActivationThe rescueME PLB 1 can be operated with a single hand in even the most challenging situations. A simple spring loaded flap covers the activation button preventing inadvertent use. |
Versatile Mounting OptionsThe rescueME PLB1 comes with a unique cradle mounting system that can be easily fitted into your lifejacket or onto a belt or backpack taking up minimal space and ensuring it is easily accessible. |
