Wherever you are, at sea, on land, the rescueME PLB1
provides the reassurance that global emergency services can be alerted by the
press of a button.
The rescueMe PLB1 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.
RescueME PLB1 works with the only officially recognised
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.
When activated the rescueME PLB1 transmits your position and
your ID to a Rescue Coordination Center via satellite link. Rescue services
nearest to your are promptly notified of your emergency and regularly advised of
your current location to assist prompt rescue.
