Daylight signalling lamps are used primarily in maritime environments to signal distress or for navigation during daylight hours. These lamps emit a strong, visible light that can be seen over long distances, even in bright sunlight. They are often equipped with strobe or flashing modes to increase visibility, especially in emergency situations. Daylight signalling lamps are typically powered by rechargeable batteries or solar power and are commonly used on boats, life rafts, and rescue operations. Their bright, high-visibility output ensures they are effective in attracting attention when help is needed.
