I am thinking to build electronics beacons for both outdoor and traveling.
After seeing James Kim and the Mt. Hood climbers unable to let searchers
locate them. I wonder what I can build some simple electronics light and
electronic signal beacons so that searchers can find us - once we are in
trouble and scream for help. Obviously, these beacons must be cheap and
small and light to carry.

Any suggestions are welcome.




How about carrying extra batteries for your gps enabled cellphone?


A lot of good that will do if you're out of range of a cell phone tower.
