Ocean Signal RescueME PLB1 Personal Locator Beacon

The Ocean Signal RescueME PLB1 Personal Locator Beacon is a compact, high-performance safety device designed to provide a reliable lifeline in emergency situations—whether at sea or on land. As one of the smallest personal locator beacons available, it fits easily onto a life jacket, ensuring it’s always within reach when needed.

When activated, the PLB1 transmits your unique ID and precise GPS location via the global Cospas-Sarsat satellite network, alerting rescue services within minutes. A powerful strobe light and 121.5 MHz homing signal then guide rescuers directly to your position for a faster recovery.

Designed for ease of use even in extreme conditions, the beacon can be operated single-handedly. A spring-loaded protective flap prevents accidental activation, while the retractable antenna deploys quickly when required.
