The Environmental Cost of Traditional Marine Flares
Expired Flares Are An Explosive, Hazardous Waste
Proper disposal of pyrotechnic marine flare is restricted and extremely expensive. A single unburned flare — improperly disposed of — can contaminate up to 240,000 gallons of water according to a Coast Guard 2014 Report on Expired Flares on expired flares.

How Hot Do Flares Burn? The Silent Hazards On Board
How Hot Do Marine Flares Burn? Marine pyrotechnic flares burn hot enough to melt aluminum and damage fiberglass hulls. This extreme heat creates serious fire hazards during emergencies. Coast Guard-approved LED boat flares, such as those from Sirius Signal, eliminate combustion heat entirely and are a safer, longer-lasting replacement for traditional flares. A standard marine pyrotechnic flare burns at somewhere between 2,000°F and well over 3,000°F. To put that in perspective, aluminum melts at 1,220°F. Many types of glass begin to soften and distort in the 2,500°F to 2,900°F range. The...

When paired with a USCG-approved orange distress flag, these devices satisfy the visual distress signal requirements for most recreational...
