Other retailers may offer similar, cheaper units, but nobody can match the service at Johnny Appleseed GPS, with friendly support and honest advice. You can trust Johnny Appleseed. Why go anywhere else?

At 100m GPS position accuracy (the optimum allowed by COSPASSARSAT) and notification to Search and Rescue can be as little as 3 minutes, the GlobalFix 406 EPIRB with GPS gives fast, accurate data to the emeregency services that could save your life.

To be sure your EPIRB is ready to go in an emergency, you can perform a fully functional self test of internal circuitry, battery voltage and GPS aquisition. Single, three-position switch for easy test of battery, EPIRB and GPS operation. Steady green LED indicates unit has passed full functional EPIRB test. Flashing red LED indicates unit is "ON".

The GlobalFix 406 EPIRB with GPS has a battery life in excess of 48 hours, so the signal will transmit well into the optimal rescue period and can update position every 20 mins so emergency servies will know exactly where to target at all times.

Lanyard coil retained with all around cover for non-tangling deployment. There's also a built in strobe light to aid your rescue in poor visibility.

EPIRB can be manually activated, or will activate automatically when out of bracket and in water.
