The SnapLight is so bright it can be seen from up to a mile away – more than enough light for rooms, hallways, stairwells or your walk back to camp. SnapLight is waterproof, non-toxic and non-flammable. The light stick has a hook and hole top for hanging, attaching or stringing the lights together. To activate SnapLight, simply bend, snap and shake for immediate illumination. Each SnapLight measures 6” long, 10 sticks per pack. Every light stick is individually foil-wrapped for protection from light and moisture.

Review: Great illumination depending on your needs - I recently purchased these red chemlights for various outdoor activities, and I must say, I'm thoroughly impressed. Here's why: 1. Exceptional Brightness: The intensity of the red glow is impressive, providing ample visibility without being overly harsh on the eyes. Whether used for signaling or enhancing visibility in low-light conditions, these chemlights deliver. 2. Long-lasting Glow: I appreciate the extended glow duration. These chemlights have proven to be reliable for extended periods, making them ideal for camping trips, night hikes, or emergency situations. 3. Sturdy Construction: The build quality is commendable. They are durable and can withstand a bit of rough handling without compromising their functionality. The outer casing is tough enough to endure outdoor adventures. 4. Easy Activation: The activation process is straightforward, making these chemlights user-friendly. A simple snap, shake, and you're greeted with a vibrant red glow. It's hassle-free, even in low-visibility situations. 5. Versatile Applications: From marking trails to creating a visible perimeter around a campsite, these red chemlights are versatile. They're a must-have for any outdoor enthusiast, providing both safety and convenience. 6. Well-packaged: The packaging ensures that the chemlights remain in top condition until you're ready to use them. Compact and lightweight, they're easy to carry in your backpack without taking up much space. Overall, I highly recommend these red chemlights for anyone in need of a reliable and bright light source in various outdoor scenarios. They've certainly earned their place in my adventure gear, and I'll be restocking when needed.
Review: NOT A FLASHLIGHT REPLACEMENT - I knew exactly what i was looking for with the intended purpose of these light sticks. The price listed from this seller is on par with local retailers, perhaps a few cents more expensive. once i placed the order (of which i purchased two boxes), it was a short two day wait until they arrived. No fancy packaging here, just a box shaped like a pencil box with ten individually wrapped light sticks in side. My package arrived with obvious bends in the box, i wouldn't say crushed, perhaps "stressed". Despite the exterior however, all ten light sticks in the first box i opened to test were in perfect condition. upon removing one light stick from the box, you will immediately notice how thick and strong the foil they are individually wrapped in is. Absolutely no light or moisture is going to get into this packaging without a puncture. I was particularly interested in this feature, as i intended to keep these around for awhile prior to use. i unwrapped the first stick, which was easily accomplished thanks to the perforated edges of the foil wrapper. The stick itself is bent to activate, i believe breaking a glass tube on the inside and releasing the necessary chemicals to create this chain reaction. When bent to activate, it initially felt like i was going to break the entire stick in half, but after applying enough force, that satisfy snap occurred and the light stick sprang to life with a bright orange light in my hand. Im not sure why these light sticks are labeled as industrial grade, but do not be fooled into thinking your buying a portable torch. they are bright enough to be seen for extremely long distances, but not really bright enough to use as a source of light to do things much more than 5 or 6 inches away from the light itself. If your going to use this for safety in mind, it should fit the billet. I give one to each of my three cousins when we go trick or treating, just in case they start wandering of the sidewalk into some dark yard. Spotting a glowing orange light is much easier than spotting a 7 year old dressed up as a fireman at night. Another useful way i use these lights is to mark where we keep our trash bag while we are camping. usually placing the trash bag outside of our camp (to keep animals from getting too close), we tie one of these up with the plastic hook on top to the bag, and bingo, easy to spot your destination. I imagine you could use them perfectly well for spotting things in the dark, but they aren't what your looking for as a flashlight replacement. The plastic tubes are sturdy, they are not going to accidentally snap, the foil wrapper is well designed and perfectly suitable to protect these light sticks, and the product is fairly priced. If your not fooling yourself into thinking that these sticks will turn night into day, im sure you will be just as satisfied as i was with this purchase.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the life shelf of the unopened Cyalume snaplight?**
A: You all are going to think I'm making up stories, but I found a group of the Cyalume SnapLight sticks that was with some dry first aid materials that goes back to before Y2K.  Perfect experiment,  I thought.  The green ones still glowed very brightly and although not bright were still visible 12 hours later.  These things are really amazing.

**Q: what color is best**
A: Depends on your use... for brightness, without a doubt green. 2 reasons to get technical, first the chemical make up allows that color to glow brightest, and second is that the human eye sees this color better than any other light wavelength. If you're looking for "flares" though and need red, your best bet would be a strobe light. The red snap lights are good for low-light needs (hence using red lens flashlights in the military to read maps as the human eye doesn't pick this light up at low levels), but nowhere near what you would need for safety. Blues and whites are in the middle but don't nearly as long -better off with a LED flashlight. Go green...

**Q: Can they be stored in freezing temps in a car?  Gets Brutal in NY in the winter**
A: they can be stored in the car and they will not freeze

**Q: Will these give enough light to read if you need to find emergency phone numbers in phone book?**
A: I was in a pitch black room door closed and no windows when I tried it out and I was able to find my locker and see the combination numbers on my lock. I thought  it was pretty good. I'm sure you'd be able to see some emergency numbers in your phone book with this product. Hope this helped.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bright, long lasting and sturdy.
*by M***Y on April 15, 2018*

Received these the other day to add into my hiking pack and decided to test one out first. First off, the package arrived intact and dry. No leaks from any of the sticks and they were all intact (not pre-snapped). I cracked a good stick at 6:30pm and shook the scrap out of it. It lit up like, well, a glow stick. If you're expecting to light your house up with one of these you're probably going to be upset, unless you live in a tiny house, then it might. Anyway, went to bed and woke up at 5am for work. The glow stick was still glowing bright without any real difference in brightness. I go to work and get back around 6:15pm and the stick was noticeably dimmer, but still glowing at a pretty good clip. Fast forward to the next morning, the glow stick is still glowing a dull yellow. It wouldn't light up much of anything, but in a dark search and rescue situation, someone might notice it. Overall, I'm incredibly happy with this product, worked like it said and then some. The casing is pretty sturdy. It glows a bit brighter than a candle without the worry of burning your tent down and lasts well past the 12 hours the package claimed.
