Product Details

The ACR Electronics 2228 RES-Q Whistle is a USCG-approved emergency signaling device designed for marine safety applications. This rugged safety whistle produces a loud, shrill dual-tone sound that can be heard from great distances, making it an essential piece of safety equipment for boaters and mariners.

Key Features:

  • Meets United States Coast Guard requirements and SOLAS 83 regulations
  • Dual-tone design creates a distinctive, attention-grabbing sound
  • Unique flat profile prevents water accumulation for reliable operation when wet
  • Rugged construction withstands harsh marine environments
  • Compact and lightweight design for easy attachment
  • Ideal for attachment to life jackets, life rafts, and foul weather gear

The RES-Q Whistle's flat design is a critical safety feature that ensures the whistle remains functional even after submersion. Unlike traditional cylindrical whistles that can trap water and become unusable, the flat design allows water to drain immediately. This reliable emergency signaling device is required equipment under SOLAS (Safety of Life at Sea) 83 regulations and should be considered essential safety gear for any vessel.

checkout was problematic

Excellent service, incredibly fast shipping and delivery. Would DEFINITELY do business with again.

I shoped all over the internet , the price ad presentation of the item on Autoplicity sight was second to none ,several emails from them kept me posted about the shipment , it arrived on time and was as described.I will be going bck for all my future needs.Thanks , Kenny Anet , Dallas TX.

It doesn't get much easier. I liked the PayPal and Amazon check out option. Tracking shipping information was very vague, not having any tracking number or any exact dates around shipping and expected deliver date (other than a window of dates). Overal

Great

Good so far

Nice website, easy to use.

Really easy Internet shopping from my smartphone

Was easy to purchase online as long as it IS actually in stock. Shipping price does seem a little high for such a small and light weight package.
