As some of the comments about them maybe getting bumped while in the truck and coming on. these units will only come on once you turn on the air valve. we dont have any turn off for the hud (ours is only led no voice amplifiers ) once you turn off the air bottle then bleed the pressure from the regulator and push the button on the side of the pass twice we get beeps then read out says off and hud lights blink and go out.
I also agree we used to have scott and some survive air packs. just plane old AIR PACKS (turn them on /strap them on your back/and go) and hopefully you remember to turn your pass on before you entered.
And sure even if they happen to be dead or dye out on you while in use they will still work fine (except for the pass alarm) which is the most important thing needed if and when S*** happens. the buddy breathing hook ups and or quick fill (rit) is great If you know where or can find a downed man
it just makes me mad as H** that everyone is going to all this electronic crap (or being forced to have it) when it is not reliable. sure some things are great that they are coming out with (instant pass on when pak pressurizd)
it sure seems not only on this site that there is some issues with these packs. we talked about maybe going back to the old clip on pass system for a back up ??? as we gave all our old ones along with the paks to a dept. on our county that was in need of upgadeing theres. kind of wish we had them back @ times.
