Thread: infrared beacons, civilian application?

just cruising online and thought these could be an excellant emergency item..... http://www.cejayengineering.com/Onli...x™-Junior.html

I've got an IR FoF light that I keep with my hunting pack. It's a wide dispersal LED and great if you get lost in the woods. At dawn and dusk just aim it high in the sky and any IR equipped search aircraft can spot you out quite well.
