The U.S. Coast Guard issued a Safety Alert advising that it has discovered defective lifejacket lights made by PROSAR Technologies. It has also learned that PROSAR Technologies is no longer in business. The Coast Guard is canceling all approvals for PROSAR Technologies lifesaving equipment because quality control cannot be verified. PROSAR Technology equipment currently in use should be replaced as soon as practicable with approved equipment. (HK Law).
