SPOT Personal Tracker Right now
This is a TOY. The technical data on this unit is sub standard when compared to units that really work.
If you are going to buy a self rescue device (PLB) then spend a few more dollars and get a unit that works. DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH, AND I MEAN RESEARCH IT, VERY THOROUGHLY! Google AQUALINK or SARLINK, that is a good place to start. Look at the technical data and then decide. You WILL see a difference.
ANY ¨Pay¨ service is a for profit company. A TRUE ¨PLB¨ should cost you the price of the unit and nothing more. No monthly fee's, NOTHING, end of story. A TRUE PLB is required to be registered with the Govt with all your data, since that is who gets the signal, DIRECTLY.
HONESTLY PEOPLE, if you are wanting something that WILL SAVE YOUR LIFE, this is NOT the device you want in a do or die situation.
And YES, I have tested this unit AND the companies newer model. Unfortunately, I know people who purchased them and after the tests, back to the store they went. These are toys, clear and simple.
I own the SARLINK and I DO trust that unit with my life. It does cost more, but how much is YOUR life worth? So give up fast food for a month or two and invest that money in a device you know will work if your life is in danger.
Hope the info helps. Get more detail about SPOT Personal Tracker.
