Product Description
Meeting the requirements of RTCM 13200.00, the buoyant EDF2 electronic flare is classified as an Electronic Visual Distress Signal Device (eVDSD) and utilises multi-colour SOS distress signalling to produce greater luminosity with substantially better light distribution. The use of red orange and cyan LEDs allows for enhanced visibility on the water while the addition of an infrared (IR) component leads to even greater visibility when night vision equipment is in use by search and rescue.
