Emergency beaconSource Technology Guide pg. 44 Price 900 gp Slot none; Weight 10 lbs. Capacity 30; Usage 1 chargeDescriptionAn emergency beacon is a small, pod-shaped device that emits a bright red flash from a dome on its top once every 6 seconds when activated. The beacon also transmits its location. Any device capable of receiving signals of any sort can pick up a beacon’s signal, which can then be tracked back to the source with a successful DC 15 Knowledge (engineering) or Survival check. A beacon’s transmissions have a range of 100 miles over flat terrain, but this range is halved in forests or hills, and quartered in mountainous terrain or through water.ConstructionCraft DC 25; Cost 450 gp Craft Technological Item, production lab
