Tips

Flashlights are very effective at getting someone's attention, or directing traffic.

Use this simple code to communicate:  

• 1 Flash for "YES",
• 2 Flashes for "NO",
• 3 Flashes for "HELP!"

Use flashlights to see AND TO BE SEEN.

A Whistle and Flashlight give anyone their own personal alerting and warning system.

Use a Flashlight for:   

• Being seen/getting attention
• seeing the the dark
• as communication device
• as a Guidance device

Use a Whistle for:   
   

• Calling for Help
• giving a warning
• staying in communication
• and a signaling device

A Whistle is also a valuable communication tool. The same code works for whistles:

• 1 Blow for "YES",
• 2 Blows for "NO",
• 3 Blows for "HELP!" 

A whistle's sound will carry much further than your voice, and it will last longer.  Use a whistle as a warning signal.
