Orion LED SOS beacon kit

Post by digitroll (ron) »

This SOS kit replaces those hand held flares you have to buy new every 3 years due to an expiration date. Needed for NY water from Champlain or Lake Ontario. Set for life after this one time purchase. $89 at Cabelas.

I like that thought Ron.
And you don't have to keep igniting flares when the last one burns out.

I got 2 flare guns and over a dozen flares from gifts from folks who have appreciated fishing. One of the flare guns I have aboard is a 10guage Winchester antique all metal Gun that I really want to try.... it has both 10 gauge flares and a adapter to fire 12 gauge too...

Thinking of trying the flares out walleye fishin some nite....

You just need the distress flag to go with it for daytime use.

This Beacon kit comes with a daytime distress flag as well. I purchased one for my boat since my flares 3 year expiration date is up in Jan of 2019.
