High Performance Flashing LED Lights For Life Jackets

A life jacket can obviously make a huge difference to someone’s chances of survival. At night, the addition of a light makes their chances much higher.

Famously, on the Titanic- a ship that’s famous for being one of the worst sea disasters in history- there weren’t enough life jackets or lifeboats which led to the death of 1,500 people, including 53 children. 

Most of us have seen the scene in the 1997 film about Titanic which shows people using the whistles on their lifejackets to try and bring the boats back at night. 

Fortunately, life jackets and their accessories have never been more sophisticated, providing sailors with a far greater chance of surviving. In particular, powerful flashing LED lights help to ensure rescue teams find those stranded in the sea. 

AquaSpec has a number of high performance lights designed for use with lifejackets, including:

• AQ40L Lifejacket Light which has an ultra-bright and powerful white flashing LED dome. It can work by manual or automatic water activation by sensor lead. With its functional and simple design, it’s easy to use in all weather conditions. 

• AQ8A Lifejacket Light, an alkaline battery-powered emergency light designed to be installed on every type of lifejacket. This compact design is tamper proof and maintenance-free with a five year battery life. 

We also have lights for use with life rafts and life buoy lights.
