Stay In The Light

Afraid of the dark? C-Light and C-Strobe won't keep you there in emergencies.

March 1, 2003

Afraid of the dark? C-Light and C-Strobe won't keep you there in emergencies. ACR Electronics reintroduces the duo, both of which feature an extending mounting pin assembly to ensure that the top of the light won't come flying off when everything else seems to hit the fan. The C-Light fits securely on a life vest with lash loops and a Velcro strap. The C-Strobe can beam for more than eight hours in almost below-freezing temperatures. According to ACR, both items are visible for up to two miles, depending on weather circumstances, and can take operational pressure depth of 200 feet. They have twist "On-Off" controls for gloved hands and quick use. Prices for the C-Light start at $7.99, and prices for the C-Strobe begin at $19.99.
