The 911 button sends your coordinates to North American authorities every five minutes until the alert is canceled. The unit's HELP button sends a personalized note, current location coordinates and a link to a Google Map™ to up to five cell phone numbers and e-mail addresses if you need assistance, but don't require emergency services or immediate rescue. The TEST/OK button verifies that the unit works or sends an "all is well" message.
SPOT works in North and South America, Europe, Russia, Australia and hundreds of miles offshore independently of cell phone systems. Included AA lithium batteries last up to 14 days in tracking mode, seven days in 911 mode and supply power to send upwards of 1,900 messages.
