Signal mirror for your survival kit

A suggestion for Signaling for Help. A CD or DVD make a great signal mirror. I put one in my backpack and camping gear. Remember when AOL would send out free ones I just recycled them to my equipment.

Be aware of that a CD is not as effective as a plastic signal mirror and definitely not if you compare it against higher quality mirrors. Yes, it is free but I would not recommend a CD as your primary survival-signaling device
