Return an Item

Return Policy and RA Request Form

Our goal is to ensure that you receive the correct item to meet your needs. If you need to return an item, please follow these guidelines so that we can obtain a prompt refund and assist you in finding the correct item.

Requesting a Return Authorization is as simple as submitting a request at the bottom of this page.

Please Read This Important Information:
  • RA (Return Authorization) Request Deadline: The request for RA must be initiated within 30 days from the date of shipment of your item to be authorized.  In rare situations where an RA is requested 30 days after the date of shipment and might be considered, the product will be subject to a 20% restock fee and will be store credit only.
  • Refusal of Shipment: Once an item has left our warehouse, we are not able to cancel the order. If you change your mind about an item, you still need to request an RA to guarantee credit back to your account. Refusal of a shipment may incur a 20% restock fee.
  • Return Without Authorization: If you return an item without obtaining a return authorization, it may be returned to you, which could incur the shipping cost and a 20% restocking fee.
  • Special Orders:  Special Orders are not returnable.  Please take care in making sure you are getting exactly what you need before ordering.

Return Situations Which Require Special Handling:
  • Damaged in Transit:  For items damaged in transit, please contact us immediately for assistance with special handling and filing of required paperwork to have your item replaced. Disputes of damaged products have to be reported to the carrier for resolution.
  • Incorrectly Shipped Items:  For items you received that did not match your original order specifications, please contact us for return and replacement handling.
  • Warranty Issues:  We will assist our customers with any warranty issues on products purchased through First Choice Marine, but we do not express or imply any warranty beyond that of the manufacturer. All defective products will observe manufacturer-specific policies.
  • Free Freight Orders:  Orders shipped within our Free Shipping Program that are returned, either partially or in whole, are subject to a restocking fee to reimburse outgoing freight.  Free Freight Orders are shipped free based on a completed sale.  We are happy to work with you on returns of those items (that fall under our other guidelines), but are not able to absorb freight for returned orders. 

Return Process Policies (after Requesting Return Authorization):
  • Return deadlines: Once RA is sent to you, the item must be returned within ten days. Items not returned within 10 days of receipt of RA are subject to a 20% restock fee.
  • Return location: Be sure and follow return authorization instructions carefully, including the location to return your item.  Failure to return the item as instructed can result in additional shipping charges deducted from your credit.
  • Condition of return items: Items returned for credit must be returned in new, unused, uninstalled, and saleable condition, including any retail packaging.  Open any packaging with care when receiving your order so as not to damage it, should you need to return the product. Items returned that do not meet this requirement are subject to a 20% restock fee.
  • Packaging, insuring, and tracking: You must send the return package signature required and insured at your expense (unless it is defective or the result of our error in shipment). Packaging of the returned item is very important. Obtaining tracking is a good idea and if you do, please email or call us with that number so we can expect your return.
  • Original manufacturer boxes/packaging: Items must be returned in original packaging, including any manufacturer boxes. Please return these inside another box or wrapped and do not apply stickers, stamps, or labels to manufacturer boxes, i.e. prop boxes.  This may void your RA and incur a 20% restock fee.
  • Damaged return package: In the case of a returned item that is damaged in return shipment, you will be notified, and if you insured the package, you should be reimbursed by the shipper of the product. They retain the right to pick up the package for inspection. Although at that time it is no longer our responsibility, we will do everything possible to assist you in your damage claim. With proper packaging of your return item, this should not be an issue.
  • Checkout+: If you opted in to Checkout+, your return shipping label is included, allowing you to return any item(s) in your order for a refund or exchange for free! Return requests should be submitted through our customer portal. If you opted out of Checkout+, no worries! You are still able to submit your return through our portal.

Please feel free to contact us for assistance in placing your order to ensure you get the correct item prior to ordering.

Description

ACR Electronics EXPOLASCORE Personal Worklight

OLAS Exposure Series Core

The Core is a compact, portable overboard alarm and emergency light system. It reacts within 2 seconds of a person falling overboard and can easily be switched between vessels without the time and cost of wired installation. The Core can connect with up to 25 OLAS transmitters and cover a vessel up to 50ft.

What it does

The Core wirelessly tracks OLAS transmitters around the vessel. When a person wearing a transmitter falls overboard, the in-built alarm is triggered, and a high-power emergency red light gives a visual indication and illuminates the surrounding area, all within 4 seconds.

As well as triggering the alarm, the Core connects with the free OLAS mobile application, providing an easy-to-read arrow back to the alert position plus essential MOB last known position information and auto-populated VHF prompt screens to support the crew during the stress of a recovery operation.

Why use the OLAS CORE

The Core gives skippers complete confidence that in the event of a MOB incident, the entire crew is alerted instantly and can take immediate recovery actions.

Losing a crew member overboard is every sailor’s worst nightmare. The larger the boat, the more difficult it can be to know immediately that a MOB incident has occurred, especially in the dark with crew members forward of the mast.

It can happen all too easily, even in benign conditions. Wearing a physical tether, whilst advisable, is not always practical, and indeed, falling overboard on a tether has been proven to be no guarantee of survival if the boat is at full speed and the skipper is not immediately aware of the incident.

Who is it for?

The Core connects to 25 crew members via wearable OLAS tag transmitters, creating a virtual lifeline. Larger vessels can be fitted with an OLAS Extender which increases the range from 50ft to 100ft. Suitable for anyone heading out on the water looking for added security and peace of mind. The OLAS tags are compact, lightweight, and have user-replaceable batteries, suitable for adults, children, pets, or important items that may fall overboard. The T2 OLAS transmitter has a rechargeable battery.

CORE Advantages

OLAS Integration

Any OLAS transmitting devices (OLAS Tags or OLAS Float-On LED Lights) within range can be tracked by the CORE, allowing freedom for the crew to move around the deck with total confidence that an early warning system will alert them instantly of a MOB incident, so a swift recovery can be actioned.

Connects to 25 OLAS Transmitters (OLAS T2 or Tag or OLAS Float-On LED Lights)

Connecting up to 15 OLAS transmitters allows the CORE to be used onboard larger vessels. OLAS transmitters are not only relevant to tracking crew members; simply by attaching a transmitter to objects such as MOB flotation devices, the dog, or a yacht tender, users can always be aware if something has gone missing. 

Portable/low power consumption – 5V USB

The OLAS CORE is a portable base station that is powered by a 5V USB power supply, enabling it to be used on different vessels without requiring hard wiring.

Audible and Visual Alarms

An 85db alarm will sound to indicate an OLAS transmitter has gone out of range, and a high-power emergency red light will illuminate, offering a clear visual indication of a MOB alert, whilst also acting as a light to illuminate the area to aid with recovery at night. The CORE can also be linked up with the OLAS app so that alarms can be placed in multiple locations on the vessel.

Integrates with the OLAS Mobile App data and monitoring

  • Instantly records the GPS location of the MOB alert position, guides the user back to the location with clear directional screens, and advises on the correct mayday call procedure.
  • Monitors all OLAS Transmitters that are being tracked and enables customized ID names for easy identification
  • Monitors battery level of all connected OLAS Tags
  • Enables users to add/remove OLAS Tags and Float-Ons from the system
  • Provides the option to manually activate/deactivate the alarm system

Expand the OLAS CORE Coverage Area

An OLAS Extender can be used with the OLAS CORE to cover areas where the Transmitter signal may be blocked. This allows use on larger vessels up to 80ft and the ability to scale the system up as required.

System Feedback

The CORE indicates how many OLAS transmitters are connected during the setup process.

Transmitters can be added/removed from the system either using the mobile app or through a simple integrated switching process. 

Mobile App Features

The Core is easily operated via the OLAS App, free to download from the App Store for iOS and the Google Play Store for Android. The OLAS app requires a device running a minimum of IOS11 or Android 5.1 to work. The OLAS App is a powerful tool for controlling the Core functions and for aiding in fast rescue. The app offers the following functionality:

  • Monitor all OLAS transmitters that are being tracked
  • Customize OLAS transmitter Names making them easy to allocate
  • Check battery status for OLAS transmitters
  • Add OLAS transmitters to the system
  • Adjust the time before the Core reacts to an overboard transmitter between 2 seconds to 15 seconds, allowing more freedom around larger vessels
  • External alarm mode activates the inbuilt switch until it is manually canceled. This allows external, high power, alarms to be connected in series
  • Pause the alarm state
  • Sounding the external alarm if a Tag wearer is out of range on both the Core and mobile device
  • Adjust the time before the cut-off switch or alarm is triggered – offering greater freedom
  • Maximum volume alarm and vibration on a mobile phone, synchronized with the Core
  • Indication of which transmitter has triggered the alarm
  • Record the GPS location of where the alarm was triggered
  • Clear guidance back to the GPS location where the alarm was triggered
  • Clear display of the time and GPS location of where the alarm was triggered and the user's current location
