Signaller’s device weighing practically nothing? (4,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

very light

This clue is a double definition.

'signaller's device' is the first definition.
(Very light is a type of flare)

'weighing practically nothing?' is the second definition.
(something light does not weigh much)

(Other definitions for very light that I've seen before include "Gun-fired flare" , "Pistol flare" , "not at all difficult to carry" , "Warning signal" , "Signaller's item" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
