That's why we're presenting you with electronic accessories whose reliability is beyond question. While flares, flare guns and smoke generators are all tried-and-tested products, the big advantage of flares lies in their ability to be used for long hours, without fire or short-lived pyrotechnic signals. When a rocket has dissipated its red signal, what remains is the light of your electronic distress signal, visible from several miles away.
