I purchased this product to track my kid while swimming. However, I think it would be great if it was available with a waterproof case for better durability. Nevertheless, the buoy has an impressive LED light that illuminates the area.

What makes this buoy unique is the fact that it can be tracked using GPS. However, the device could use a rechargeable battery for longer usage?

How does this buoy differ from the other similar products on the market? Also, what are the long-term effects of using it under direct sunlight?

Thank you for your review, Chew Hock Huay! We’re glad to hear that you’re pleased with the Mares Tech Torpedo Buoy. To answer your questions, the Mares Tech Torpedo Buoy differs from other similar products on the market in several ways. Firstly, it features a unique design that is both durable and resistant to corrosion, making it ideal for long-term use in harsh marine environments. Additionally, our buoy is made from high-quality materials that are resistant to fading and degradation, ensuring that it retains its vibrant color and buoyancy even after prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. In terms of long-term effects, we’ve conducted rigorous testing to ensure that our buoy meets the highest standards of performance and safety. However, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight may cause minor discoloration. To minimize this effect, we recommend storing the buoy in a shaded area when not in use. We’re constantly striving to improve our products and appreciate your feedback. Would you like to share any further thoughts or suggestions?
