So much better than flares...
Our marina mandated safety inspections for all boats that included flares. Two year old boat failed because flares were 3 years old. I still had 6 from the past two times I bought new ones (got 3 of them wet by over zealous spraying/washing). Now I just need to pop extra C batteries in. Will definitely save some money. This thing is so bright - very impressive. Feels very sturdy and is a breeze to use.

This is a much better option for me instead of worrying about flares. Seems to be well made and the strobe is super bright.

Safety First
Great safety addition to the boat. Not worried about out of date flares. Packs easy in boat compartments. Appears to be very durable. Not sure on battery life, I hope I don't have to find out. Good value in my book.

Good quality safety products. Replaces the need for flares. I'd definitely recommend this product.

Nice alternative to conventional flares
Boight this to replace flares that seem to expire way to quickly. This device serves the purpose of conventional flares, without the fire risk, and it never expires. When you think of it, holding a lit ball of fire on the deck of a floating gas station is a bit risky, at best. This is a much better option, to me.

Grandchildren friendly, great replacement for flares!
The Sirius Signal C-1003 SOS LED Distress Signal shipped fast with overnight shipping. Very durable and easy to operate. The light is extremely bright. I had flares in my boat that had expired. No brainer to get this battery operated flair. It will pay for itself by not having to purchase flares every time they expire. No danger in teaching my grandchildren how to use this. Totally recommend!

Highly Recommended – Safe, Bright, and Reliable SOS Signal!
Highly Recommended – Safe, Bright, and Reliable SOS Signal! I purchased the Sirius Signal C-1003 SOS LED Distress Signal for my boat, and I’m extremely impressed. The setup was super easy, and I love that it’s USCG-approved, so I know I’m covered for safety requirements. The LED signal is incredibly bright and it stays on for hours without needing a replacement. It’s reassuring to know the device floats and the SOS signal remains above water, just in case. The day flag and whistle are nice bonuses and make me feel prepared for any situation. The product shipped quickly, and the quality feels great right out of the box. If you want a worry-free, eco-friendly flare alternative, I definitely recommend this. I feel much more confident on the water with it onboard!

No more expired flares on my boat.
It seems every time I checked my flares they were expired or about to expire. Not anymore, with the Coast Guard approved Sirius Signal C-1003, expired flares are a thing of the past on my boat. I'm no longer anxious when the Coast Guard does a safety check on my vessel because the Sirius Signal never expires. I keep fresh batteries and I'm good to go. The size of the device makes it easy to stow, it doesn't take up much room. The device is super easy to use, and you can't beat the price. Quality and durability are about equal. I see the device lasting a long, long time. Thank you Sirius Signal.

Good value!
Seems a great device. Tried it out at home and its very bright. (Hopefully I won't need it when on the water!) Thankfully regs have changed (in Tasmania, Australia) to allow an EVDS instead of flares - no more replacing them every 3 years. The Sirius unit was a good price and represents good value. (bit of no-brainer really to get one when your flares expire). Shipping/delivery was amazingly fast.

Electronic Marine Flare Review
This device solves the expensive dilemma of replacing flares every four years and struggling to find a place to legally dispose of the expired pyrotechnics. It lasts much longer than flares and cartridges and does not present a hazard to the user when employed. Safer, less expensive, long duration and easy to use in an emergency. A win all around.

Sécurité avec la seule obligation de changer les batteries .
Bon choix de signaux urgence approuvés par la garde côte US en remplacement des fusées que l'on doit renouveler au trois ans. Très satisfait.
