Need help identifying object tnet

[1HappyHunter]

Went out this morning for a beach hunt. Got to the beach and it was far more than I expected cuts all over the place sanded in all over the place by the time I left it had completely changed once again. The waves were massive and there were a lot of old green coin's but I found this one random object... green box that I need help identifying. Has anyone seen Or ran into one of the se before? Only writing is on the backside that says if found please call this number and it has a phone number which I've tried to call but it just gives me a sound similar to a fax line. Any thoughts on what it could possibly be? Seems the little black thing is kind of a button that you can press in and out. Any help or suggestions is greatly appreciated.

I'm going to say flood sensor. When water touches the contacts it emits an alarm sound. My guess! Probably in a sailboat which sank!

Other possibility, a beeper for something like a weather balloon... just an audible locator so when it goes down you can find it.

Last possibility, prototype North Korean EMP bomb. I suggest replacing the batteries at which point it will destroy itself.

that fact it has a Call if Found Number manufactured into it . Not a sticker.
I'm thinking Government or environmental use.
if sold to the public, they would prefer they buy a new one if lost.

Could it be a siren warning speaker from the nuke plant?
I know the ones in Crystal River area, when they went off, sure had me wondering where my friends had hid the iodine pills.
Maybe it's the siren part of a burgler alarm system?

Emergency call box or Intercom??

If the number makes a sound like a fax machine....send them a fax.

Figure out how many volts those batteries produce, power it up and push the button.

They look Like D batterie. I think I will probably try to swap them out and see what happens when I do hit that button. No harm no foul I guess lol

Well..based on the o-ring for watertight integrity, the multiple power cells, sealed cone speaker and pcb board with reset switch...I would have to say it's a bilge alarm.
