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."

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. Unfortunately, the majority of the general public
possesses only limited understanding of the value of a signal mirror
and its ability to save their life.
The Star Flash Signal Mirror is one of the most versatile pieces
of outdoor equipment you can add to your personal gear. Whether
attracting the attention of another hunter several ridge lines away
or applying makeup, this mirror offers superior performance.
Survival experts worldwide agree that no person should ever venture
into the woods, travel off-road, get on 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 Star Flash in
all of their kits. Our mirror is far lighter than glass and is virtually
indestructible. Perhaps most important, however, 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 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
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.
