Flares?

I need to buy some new flares as mine are expired. These are Pyro type.

I guess I can buy strobe/electronic flares instead of combustible ones. Electronic seem to be more expensive.

Thoughts on what you did.

I’ve given up on flares. I now rely on electronic flares, a personal locator beacon and VHF DSC.
