>>1613587I recommend ones with an actual track record of helping to save people in emergency situations. Don't just look at a few retarded amazon reviews that amount to, "wow it looks great! hope I never need it! 5 stars!!!" Basically, see which ones are recommended by emergency rescuers whose job it is to actually go out and find the people via the beacons. Try contacting a few of these organizations that relate to where you'd be going and see what they recommend. Don't skimp on the expense of PLB/PEBs.

>>1613616People who do more than simple car camping and playing online games on their cellphones before going to sleep in their tents. Also, in some locations near oceans or mountains the weather forecast can't predict everything. Weather can change at the drop of a hat from 75F to -5F with white out blizzard conditions or calm seas can turn deadly in only a few moments despite what original weather forecasts had predicted.
