Ack
I just installed the ACK E-04. Decision to go ACK was partly price and my history with brand. I have installed ACK's in other aircraft in the past and they have stood up well, easy to install and batteries are not expensive. Testing is all done in the field. I have heard that they may not be as high quality, but I have never had issue with them, and personally, I only have an ELT to be legal. I think ELT's are useless pieces of kit; majority of accidents they become disconnected from antenna (the brackets for all of them are useless), are consumed by fire or go underwater. I know I might be stirring a hornets nest here, but I have done years of research on them and lost friends to accidents where the ELT did not function. Save your money on the purchase of your ELT, and invest the money you save in a satellite tracking device for emergencies and flight following.
