Product Description

A classic tool for camping, backpacking, and emergency preparedness, the lightweight ust StarFlash Micro Signal Mirror has a built-in precision aiming system for accurate signaling. In addition to using it for emergency signaling, it’s handy for personal grooming as well. The virtually unbreakable Micro Mirror also features a lanyard hole for convenient attachment to gear, and it works even in overcast conditions or at night with moonlight or other light sources. 1 – Stand facing the sun or other light source in an open area with a clear view of the sky and, if possible, the horizon 2 – Reflect light from the light source onto your hand or other nearby surface making sure to not block the light from the light source to the mirror surface. 3 – Slowly bring the mirror toward your eye until the mirror touches your cheek. Look through the star at the reflected light on your hand (or other surface). A bright glowing spot will show in the star. This is the aim indicator. 4 – Holding the mirror close to your eye, and still looking at the aim indicator, slowly turn and angle the mirror until you “place” the aim indicator directly on the object you wish to flash. If no target is in sight, continually sweep the horizon. NOTE: The StarFlash Micro is NOT a floating mirror.

Be Aware of the SMALL Size
3 out of 5 stars
Be Aware of the SMALL Size
The product is a standard signaling mirror, but it very small (approximately 2" x 1.25 inches). It's plastic and very lightweight. Keeping this as an emergency signal is easy because it is so small and lightweight. However, a larger size (4" x 3") might be a better choice.

    Este espejo para señalar de UST es uno de los mejores productos de la marca. Sugiero que se cubra la superficie reflectaste para que no se dañe y en caso de usarse funcione de la mejor manera posible. Tiene la mirilla de buen tamaño y aunque es "micro" el espejo puede reflejar bastante bien la luz solar o artificial. Este espejo para señalar es compacto y potente, altamente recomendable.

    Very nice, small and lightweight signal mirror for your survival / emergency kits. I like the lanyard hole for attaching a few bits of kit together.
