MANILA, Philippines - The recent flooding in many areas due to heavy rainfall in Luzon has, more than ever, made disaster preparedness a must.
Aside from being aware of flood-prone locations, it is important to have life-saving skills in any environment. Emergencies can happen anytime, anywhere, and there is a real need to be well prepared. When disaster strikes, much depends on survival skills and communication is a tool of extreme importance.
How many times has one been caught in a typhoon or similar disaster where there is no power and no way to recharge cellphones? A hurried text saying “low batt” seems not to bring relief or calm the fear of the person receiving the message. On the contrary, it tends to add anxiety. The SpareOne phone is the simple solution to this dilemma. It is the only phone in the world with a battery that will last for up to 15 years if unused. Take note that ordinary cellphone batteries lose their charge over time even if they are powered off. Not so with the SpareOne phone. It is powered by one battery, the Energizer Ultimate Lithium L91 (included in the package).
For 15 years, one can keep the phone in your car’s glove compartment, in a kitchen drawer, or any other accessible place in an emergency, and it will be ready for use. Once the phone is used, it provides 10 hours of talk time, which can last a long trip on one battery.
The SpareOne Plus emergency phone is simple yet packed with all the features needed for a backup phone. It is contained in a waterproof bag that is floatable and submersible, with talk-through containment and extreme temperature operation, providing you a communication lifeline when all else is potentially destroyed.
It has a LED torchlight (flashlight) which provides up to 24 hours of continuous light, as well as an SOS torchlight that will flash in Morse code to show a call for help in times of distress.
The SpareOne phone has a panic siren that will aid in attracting attention. It is location and alert services-capable. Through a Web interface, the user can locate the SpareOne Plus and emit an alert by e-mail and/or text message to designated recipients.
Its one-touch, large emergency services button is ideal for daily emergency and medical situations, and no SIM is required for emergency numbers. With a SIM, one can also pre-program up to nine numbers of family and friends.
Emergency preparedness has to be simple yet functional. This is where technology plays a critical role through life-saving devices. The SpareOne phone is simple, easy to use, and has many features that make it several tools in one. When all else fails, you can depend on the SpareOne phone to be your communication lifeline to the world.
