## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is anyone using rechargeable batteries with this? How long is it flashing for you then, please? Thank you.**
A: Rechargable batteries do not last as long as top quality alkaline's nor do they hold a charge as long.   Plus, are you going to remember to recharge them often?   Throw some Duracell's in and be done.   Lithium if you want some Overkill.  If the alkaline's wear out I've been in the water way to long.

**Q: Does this meet the uscg 161.013 requirements for nighttime distress signal??**
A: It is too small and weak to serve as the vessel nighttime distress light, it is really meant to locate an individual who has fallen overboard at night.

**Q: What type of batteries does this strobe require?**
A: AA

**Q: Visibility range**
A: It's about 3 miles.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great, understanding it is manually activated
*by  on Reviewed in the United States September 9, 2025*

Good product. Bright but small enough to not encumber the life jacket (or donut throw). This is turned on manually. Have not tested in real life or death situation but I am confirmable with the quality. The one on the donut sits outside all the time and I periodically twist it to make sure it comes on. No failures.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Personal locator beacon.
*by  on Reviewed in the United States May 15, 2026*

Just what the title says. A personal life jacket locator beacon. Manual operation only which is what I wanted as a kayaker gets wet more often than needing to get located. This is NOT a Coast Guard Approved Emergency Flair with 3 mile visibility and a SOS signal

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product- easy to attach to inflatable life jackets.
*by  on Reviewed in the United States June 10, 2025*

Great product - easily seen at night. Very easily attached to oral inflation tube inside inflatable life jacket with whistle. As someone who has fallen overboard without a whistle or light - This is a lifesaver!
