How we calculate scores →About this gear
AquaFix covers the discontinued PLB-200/201 personal beacon family. These are surface emergency devices with satellite distress transmission and a homing signal, rather than underwater communication equipment.
Consider before buying
GPS capability depends on the exact version. ACR specifically identifies internal GPS on part 2797.4NH; do not apply that specification to every AquaFix advertised online. Battery age and available service matter more than the original brochure.
Our take
We would choose a current ResQLink for a new kit. If you already own an AquaFix, identify its part number and obtain an authorised service assessment before relying on it. The newer 400 is the simpler option; the View adds a display.
