Hi All,
I need to replace the battery in my McMurdo Rescue 406 EPIRB.
I am in Manningtree on the Essex/Suffolk borders.
Any idea who does the replacement and the cost?

It seems that I can buy a new Kannard Solo Personal Location Beacon (406/121) with Gps for £209 which would seem safer in that I would carry it in my oily jacket.

Any thoughts or advice please guys?

Brendan

I had mine done at SARTECH in Redhill I think.

Did it while I went shopping took about 1 hour and cheaper than McMurdo and better service IMHO.

Be prepared for a shock. I have a Tron which is now well past its expiry date. The best price for a battery I could find was £148. For £200 I can get a McMurdo PLB with GPS.
