With a flash that can be seen
for up to 100 miles, the signal mirror has been
called the most underrated tool in a survival
kit.
Three men stranded on a frozen
pinnacle of ice were rescued after a passing
ship noticed a flash on the distant horizon - a
flash from a signal mirror hanging from an
unconscious man's neck. From this true story
comes the wisdom, "Never underestimate the value
of a signaling device." This of course includes a signal mirror.
The Star Flash Signal Mirror is
the most valuable daytime means of visual
signaling. Even on overcast days, this signal
mirror can be used effectively to obtain rescue.
You can't be rescued if you can't be found.
Ultimate Survival's Star Flash Signal Mirror can
help you be found, and can save your life.
Every military survival kit is
required to include a signal mirror and all
personnel are trained to use one. The majority of the general public possesses
only limited understanding of the value of a
signal mirror and its ability to save lives.
The Star Flash Signal Mirror is
one of the most versatile pieces of outdoor
equipment you can add to your survival gear.
Whether attracting the attention of another
hunter or rescuer several ridge lines away or applying
camouflage face paint, this mirror offers superior performance.
Survival experts worldwide agree
that no person should ever venture into the
woods, travel off-road, board their
boat or plane, or engage in any other
outdoor activity without a signal mirror and a
whistle.

Why choose the Star Flash
targetable signal mirror when other less
expensive mirrors are available? The U.S. Air
Force asked that very question before deciding
to include The Star Flash Signal Mirror in all of their kits.
This signal mirror is far lighter than
glass and is virtually indestructible. It
floats, which allows you to recover the mirror
if you drop it overboard. Most important is the trademarked Star
Flash technology that enables you to aim the
flash as far as the eye can see with pinpoint
accuracy.
Best results with the Star Flash
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
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
with the signal mirror to maximize your chances of being seen.
At night, flashlights,
headlights, and moonlight can produce effective
signals with your Star Flash.
While Star Flash is a
state-of-the-art mirror, it also is a practical,
multipurpose outdoor tool. 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. Use it for emergency signaling to
send a pinpoint flash to a rescue plane,
helicopter, vehicle, or distant search party. |
