A survival strobe light is a must for any survival kit designed for a situation that might find you in trouble, in the dark. One of the most important aspects of survival is being found in a timely manner. An emergency strobe light works when your signal mirror or other daytime signaling devices have stopped.

Though flares are a valuable, and necessary addition to any survival kit, they are short lived and designed for signaling when you have spotted emergency rescue.  The MPI Emergency Strobe Light works for long periods of time, even after you may be unable to signal for yourself.
