Empirical Testing: Real-World Performance Validation
- Ultraflare Daylight was extensively tested in the day against pyrotechnic flares, orange smoke signals, and conventional EVDS models to validate its effectiveness in real-world scenarios.
- EVDS Comparison – Traditional EVDS devices were barely visible beyond very close range (200m), while Ultraflare Daylight remained highly visible beyond 3 nautical miles.
- Smoke Signal Comparison – Orange smoke signals dissipated rapidly in 20-knot winds, while Ultraflare Daylight provided a stable and continuous distress signal.
- Search & Rescue Recognition – A commercial pilot with SAR experience confirmed from a search aircraft that Ultraflare Daylight was clearly visible beyond 3 nautical miles, exceeding necessary visibility thresholds.
- Pyrotechnic Flare Safety Assessment – During testing, traditional flares burned through protective gloves and caused an accidental fire, whereas Ultraflare Daylight provided comparable brightness without these
