SPOT Satellite Messenger (2008)

SPOT Satellite Messenger (2008)

Personal locator beacons, those gadgets that transmit distress signals to search and rescue teams, used to be your best bet for dangerous situations. But now there's something even better (and a lot more affordable): The SPOT satellite messenger. This handheld device works where cell phones don't (because it uses regular satellite technology), and communicates like GPS units can't. Say you're out in the wilderness and you need help. You can push the Help or the 9-1-1 button to send your exact GPS coordinates, complete with a Google Maps link, to emergency personnel or family and friends. The OK button lets people track your movements and lets people know you're alive. The SPOT even floats. It runs on 2 AA batteries, costs less than most high-tech sleeping bags, and is worth every penny because it could save your life.
