Mine has an Artex ME406. I bought my airplane from a commercial operator, and Canada already requires 406 ELTs in commercial aircraft. The requirement for 406s in private aircraft has been passed, but not yet brought into force.
My last airplane had an ACK 406 in it, and we had nothing but problems with it. Had to go back to the factory for repair, they screwed up the repair so it didn't work when we got it back. Sent us a replacement part, sent the wrong part. Had to go back to the factory again. Seems there's a reason they're priced cheap.
