While I am confident with a map and compass, do not extend myself beyond my capabilities and am careful of where I venture if the weather is inclement accidents can happen. I enjoy the peace and solitude of being on my own in the wilds but that does come with risks.

The way to look at it is that it is a small price to pay for the peace of mind that it provides.

Incorrect warnings threaten life and cause expensive disruptions for search and rescue services. This PLB should only be used in grave situations and unstanding food hazard.Simply insert the antenna, pull on the tamper evident seal and press the ON button. Even in extreme conditions and situations, the FastFind 220 is easily activated. PLBs have been tested, tested and tested under some of the most remote locations and treacherous conditions in the world.In the absence of this information, it may take longer for a search and rescue process. Registration is very important because if your beep is ever activated, it is like search and rescue teams know who you are, and contacts may provide information about your specific travel plans. The registration of your personal locator light is legally required in most countries.
