The Solar-Powered Navigation Buoy with GPS/GPRS and Amber Warning Light is a self-contained solar navigation buoy: a sealed red float disc carries a solar panel, charge controller and battery on the inside, with a GPS/GPRS antenna and a high-visibility amber warning light on top. It marks channels, work zones and monitoring stations without shore power or scheduled battery swaps, and reports its position over the cellular network.

Structure & Sealing
The electronics bay is arranged under the transparent service lid: the solar panel and charge controller sit opposite the GPS/GPRS antenna, with the amber beacon on the top face. The float shell closes on a full-perimeter gasket with a bolted flange, so the bay can be opened for service and resealed in the field without adhesives.
