Review: Highly Recommended – Safe, Bright, and Reliable SOS Signal! - Highly Recommended – Safe, Bright, and Reliable SOS Signal! I purchased the Sirius Signal C-1003 SOS LED Distress Signal for my boat, and I’m extremely impressed. The setup was super easy, and I love that it’s USCG-approved, so I know I’m covered for safety requirements. The LED signal is incredibly bright and it stays on for hours without needing a replacement. It’s reassuring to know the device floats and the SOS signal remains above water, just in case. The day flag and whistle are nice bonuses and make me feel prepared for any situation. The product shipped quickly, and the quality feels great right out of the box. If you want a worry-free, eco-friendly flare alternative, I definitely recommend this. I feel much more confident on the water with it onboard!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is an SOS eVDSD?**
A: An "Electronic Visual Distress Signal Device" (eVDSD) is used to indicate distress or an emergency situation visually, often in boating or maritime contexts. Designed to enhance safety by signaling for help or drawing attention to a vessel in need.

**Q: Why should you replace your flares with an SOS eVDSD?**
A: USCG approved, SOS eVDSDs are Family Safe, Never Expire and reduce toxic waste from pyrotechnic flares. Please note that regulations and specific devices may vary by region and type of vessel.

**Q: What is the difference between an SOS eVDSD distress light and a strobe light?**

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great electronic LED flare.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ USCG Approved For Life! No more money spent on flares that expired.
*by L***B on April 9, 2023*

To date I concur with the 5 star rating from “hood” and the 4 star rating from “ Clemens”. To add to their reviews I would say that although this product is expensive it will in the long run save me money by not having to continually buy flares that expire not to mention that if not handled properly a flare can start a fire in your boat and burn your hands etc. I do however still keep an orange smoke flare on board for insurance. This product made in the USA was Sirius’s mid range offering and I decided this upgrade because of the additional capabilities it has over their basic model. I keep it on board my 17’ Triumph Skiff for both day and night fishing/hunting. Notes: it’s yellow-bright and floats, instructions on how to use are stamped on the light, was packaged nicely, batteries were already inside the light and worked right out of the package, it came with a whistle-distress flag and mount. The distress flag is of high quality-I attached the enclosed strings immediately so as not to worry about doing this step when out in the water and wind when time is of the essence! Remember to display the flag when needed with the (Square over the Dot), I marked the flag on both sides with a sharpie showing (Up and Down) so others would know if they aren’t aware. The mount is heavy duty but the light fits in it loosely? I may use another option for the mount or just find a container to keep the light in to protect it from damage as it appears somewhat fragile. Keep this light in reach as you don’t want to be digging for it while it’s in some storage locker. The whistle is so so but meets USCG requirements. I would suggest replacing the light batteries every year before you set sail and maybe keep some extras on board as well. Overall I like this light and It was worth the investment in my opinion. Highly Recommended!
