EPIRB & SART SERVICE

Due to changes by the Federal Government in January 2008, older generation EPIRBS are now considered Dangerous Goods for transportation which makes them very difficult for the average individual to ship. Because of this change we are no longer stocking replacement batteries for any brand other than Kannad. If you are not located in the Tacoma, WA area your best bet might be purchasing a new EPIRB.

Batteries are not available for most of the first generation 406 EPIRBS including: ACR RLB-23, Koden 948, Litton 948, McMurdo, Graesby, Avmar, Furuno, and Lokata. Many manufacturers have also instituted policies that do not allow for the service on units over 12 years old. Use the pictures below to identify your EPIRB or SART and then go to the table that follows to check battery availability. FAQ's on EPIRB servicing. For information regarding the phase out of 121.5/243 units click here.

 

Effective 1/1/08 existing EPIRBS will be considered Dangerous Goods (hazardous material) for shipment. DO NOT ship any EPIRB to us after 12/31/2007. We will be forced to turn the shipment over to the Department of Transportation for action (fines).
