With a flash that can be seen for up to 100 miles, the StarFlash® Signal Mirror has been called the most underrated tool in a survival kit.
The StarFlashSignal Mirror is the most valuable daytime means of visual signaling. Even on overcast days, this signal mirror can be used effectively to obtain rescue. Every military survival kit is required to include a signal mirror and all personnel are trained to use one.
StarFlash mirror is so far lighter than glass and is virtually indestructible. It floats, which allows you to recover the mirror if you accidentally drop it overboard. Perhaps most important, however, is the trademarked StarFlash technology that enables you to aim the flash as far as the eye can see with pinpoint accuracy.
Best results with the StarFlash Signal Mirror are achieved when the air is clear and the sun is well above the horizon. However, visible signal flashes can be created even on hazy or overcast days. Signal flashes can and may be seen even when you cannot see the aircraft, boat, or other means of rescue. So when signaling and no specific targets are in sight, be sure to continually sweep the horizon to maximize your chances of being seen. At night, flashlights, headlights, and moonlight can produce effective signals with your StarFlash.
While StarFlash is a state-of-the-art mirror, it also is a practical, multipurpose outdoor tool. It is one of the most important pieces of outdoor equipment you can add to your personal gear. Use it around camp for shaving, to apply makeup or camouflage, or for inserting contact lenses. Use it as a silent communications tool to signal an outdoor companion, or for looking around corners or into tight spaces. Attract the attention of another hunter several ridgelines away. Use it for emergency signaling to send a pinpoint flash to a rescue plane, helicopter, vehicle, or distant search party.
