rescueME EPIRB2 Pro Cat I with RLS & NFC

With the Return Link Service (RLS) technology and Near Field Communication (NFC) capabilities, the EPIRB2 Pro provides significant advantages over its predecessors. RLS comforts those who activate the beacon by confirming that their distress message has been received and the inclusion of NFC capability allows the use of a smartphone app to monitor the EPIRB’s battery and other functions ensuring it is working properly. 

The innovative features of the EPIRB2 Pro and the included auto-release float-free bracket make it an excellent choice for a wide variety of marine applications specific to both recreational and commercial vessels.

In developing the EPIRB2 Pro, Ocean Signal has drawn on its substantial experience in designing and producing high-quality, feature-packed EPIRBs utilizing a conveniently compact form factor. Employing multiple levels of integrated signaling technology including 406 MHz, GNSS (GPS, Galileo, Glonass) positioning, and a 121.5 MHz homing signal, the EPIRB2 Pro effortlessly guides search and rescue forces to your location. The addition of Return Link Service (RLS) technology and Near Field Communication capability round out the impressive feature set of the EPIRB2 Pro.

Smartphone Connectivity Utilizing Near-Field Communication

The integration of NFC technology provides users with the ability to conveniently access beacon data from their mobile phones. The simple act of placing a phone near the beacon automatically opens the Ocean Signal Product App and provides access to a wealth of usage data including current battery life, the number of self-tests completed, the number of GNSS tests completed, and if applicable, the amount of time that the beacon has been activated.

Detailed information on each self-test and GNSS test performed by the beacon is also available. Information that is accessible for each successful GNSS test includes access to a map showing exactly where the test was performed, the date and time of the test, the time it took the beacon to get a GNSS coordinate fix, the number of satellites the beacon used to obtain that fix, and the accuracy of the location.

Global Coverage via the Cospas-Sarsat Satellite Network

Harnessing the global reach of the Cospas-Sarsat Satellite Network, the EPIRB2 Pro can be activated anywhere, at any time, and will transmit your 406 MHz distress message. The distress transmission includes beacon coordinates that are derived from the EPIRB’s integrated GNSS receiver and are accurate to within 100 meters.    

RLS provides reassurance for users by sending a return signal through the Galileo satellite network directly back to the beacon to confirm that the distress message has been received and the beacon location has been detected. User confirmation is distinctly indicated by a flashing blue light.

Return Link Service (RLS)

The inherent stress associated with a maritime emergency situation is a challenging symptom that all boaters, unfortunately, have to deal with should they find themselves in a distress scenario. Fortunately, the inclusion of the RLS feature in the EPIRB2 Pro provides a means of minimizing the stress in such situations. RLS provides a direct-to-beacon confirmation letting the user know that their distress message has been received and their location detected. The indication of RLS functionality is represented by a distinctive blue light, making it simple for users to ascertain exactly when the RLS confirmation is received.

Mounting Bracket

The EPIRB2 Pro comes complete with a Category I auto-release float-free mounting bracket. This bracket securely stores the EPIRB2 Pro for the duration of your trip regardless of the conditions experienced throughout. It also provides the best chance of deployment in distress situations where it is difficult for a crew member to reach the EPIRB.

Ocean Signal prides itself on continuing to offer new and exciting features such as RLS and NFC as it maintains its goal of offering the highest quality innovative safety products. Regardless of the reason for your next voyage, or your chosen destination, guarantee your safety with the carriage of the EPIRB2 Pro.

Customer photo review of Ferntree Mini Excavator Forestry Mulcher | Model FF-L Series | 22"-30" Cutting Width | Machine Size 2.5- 6 Ton | For Mini Excavator

easy buying process and great communication. Mulcher works great, easily clears overgrown brush and even mulched a 5" thick mulberry tree fairly easily. running it off of my old 331 bobcat with no problem powering the drum at all. Only small issue which isn't a big deal is that the supplied hoses are about 16" too short to operate a full range of motion.

Ferntree Mini Excavator Forestry Mulcher | Model FF-L Series | 22"-30" Cutting Width | Machine Size 2.5- 6 Ton | For Mini Excavator

Over all built well. I like it is all cast iron and metal and not plastic. Had to modify fertilizer disc mount to fit correctly, nothing major, a little grinding. I modified the center link hitch point to accommodate my John Deere quick hitch. Have yet to plant with it but I’m sure it will work perfect. Love the grease fittings everywhere. Reminds me of the old farm equipment I grew up on, and still use periodically.

Cole 12 MX Multiflex Planter | Model B46-664A / 0120103 | Width 13" | Size: One Row | 3PT Hitch Planter Attachment | Horsepower 25–45 HP | For Tractor

My firminator RT was delivered in good condition in ND. I will be using it next week. I have a 45 HP John Deere tractor that is supposed to lift 2000 lb but really struggles to lift this 6 foot firminator RT. I will just have to use in as a two pass operation for now. I do wish there was a better operating manual for this unit. Maybe that is something you can work on. I will give you an update once I start using it in a few days.

Put this on Kubota 900 with winch hookup. This thing is a beast (within reason). I named it ‘Homie”, cause Homie don’t play. It will take care of stuff up to about 2” in diameter. You still have to remember that this is NOT like the ones on a bobcat or larger machinery. It does have its limits. But all in all I am very satisfied with it. Now on to the good part! The staff at Ripping It are outstanding! Especially Kayla in the office. She has gone above and beyond on making sure everything went right, from ordering to questions about installation. This young lady would be of great value at ANY company ! Her knowledge and personality are like over the top. This is my first experience with Ripping It Outdoors and I can only say positive things about them. With all that being said, I do fill out reviews on things I buy, AND I give a honest review. If it’s bad then you will know it. But if it’s good, well I tell the truth ! Again Kayla, from the bottom of my heart, a great big THANK YOU for all your help and just talking to you. I feel like we’ve know each other for years!

Hi, my name is Ken. I’ve had a great experience with Ripping It Outdoors. I purchased a Forax Hp40 Mulcher for my mini excavator. Kayla Patterson is who I dealt with from the beginning until I received it at my house. She has been wonderful to work with and looking forward to working with her with any other orders I purchase. Kayla answered any questions I had and kept me updated throughout the whole process, can’t say it enough just a wonderful person to work with!!

Forax Ultralight Mulcher | Model HP40 | Cutting Width 40" | Carrier 2-4-Ton | For Excavators

These are great feeders if you don’t have any feral hogs but if the hogs tear off the wiring harness from the timer to the feeder motor, you’re disabled. Then, if you ask for help from Outback, they refer you to the dealer but really you’re on your own for parts and repairs. I have three Outback feeders that work as designed. They’re 13 years old and have always served well but this feeder misses the mark by a very high margin. I’d NEVER buy this product again. Feeders need to be dependable and this unit is not.
