Ocean Signal GMDSS Emergency Radio V100 VHF with Test Battery & Charger

Ocean Signal SafeSea V100 GMDSS handheld VHF radio - With everyday use and test Lithium Polymer rechargeable battery and charging kit

The Ocean Signal SafeSea V100 survival craft hand portable emergency GMDSS VHF meets all the requirements of the IMO for carriage on SOLAS ships. Designed to be ultra-rugged and easy to use, both on-board and in distress situations, the V100 is the ideal choice for mandatory and voluntary carriage.

The novel battery protection tab means the primary battery can be permanently attached to the radio without fear of losing its charge. The radio will always be available for use in times of emergency without the need to remove protective labels or the like before use. Simply break off the red protective tab and the radio will be immediately ready to turn on.

For everyday use, Ocean Signal offers a lithium polymer rechargeable battery (RB5V) option is available. The quick release rapid charger provides the ideal solution for keeping the batteries fully charged.

For routine testing of the V100 an alkaline, non-rechargeable, battery (TB6V) is available.  This battery has limited life for testing only and not suitable for operational use.
