These distress signals are widely used in water sports and shipping. Initially, this type of signal was also commonly referred to as a \u2018ship\u2019s signal\u2019, due to the SOLAS<\/a> Maritime certification. The only difference between this type of hand-held flare and the standard SOLAS hand-held flares <\/a>is that it is more compact due to a \u2018telescopic\u2019 design. The advantage of this is that it is easier to carry (in terms of space), and there is an additional benefit: the handle is sturdier and many times larger than that of the standard SOLAS hand-held flare. The flare burns slightly brighter than the standard hand-held flare<\/a>. With a luminous intensity of 10,000 candelas, you are clearly visible from thousands of metres away! At the same time, this type of flare also produces a huge amount of white smoke. This smoke ensures even greater visibility. The SOLAS flare burns for 60 seconds. <\/p>\n
