Anyone know where to have a battery replaced in an epirb. It is a global fix 406.

I think they are in mt pleasant
it will probably need to be tested (the epirb) when its done
If you don’t want a fancy certification, Batteries Plus.
If you want that certification, Air Sea Safety:

Word of caution: my one experience with the above wasn’t good. They quoted me approximately $400 to re-pack a Zodiak life raft…ended up costing me almost $650 after adding in a couple of items they failed to mention on the phone. It was cheaper than buying a new one, though.
“Never argue with an idiot…he will drag you down to his level and beat you with experience.”
I have the same EPIRB and will probably need to replace the battery in the next year or so. Never new Batteries Plus replaced them, not something to mess around with tho.
Post up when you get it replaced please.
As Chris said, test it when battery is replaced, but also once a month or at least before going offshore.
Thanks,

Do you have an Interstate Battery down there? The one in Columbia seems to be able to find just about any kind of battery.

I used these guys a few years ago. They’re in Jacksonville, Fla. Good, fast service.
Ask for Terry if he is there, tell him to give you my discount. Ha Ha
