Review on Cyalume 9-86000PF Mini ChemLight: Ultra-Bright Military Grade Chemical Light Sticks (4 Hour Duration) - Unmatched Illumination by Nick Moody

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Click and light, Millitary Spec glowsticks.

Have been using it for years, I use these and larger Calum brand lights for all sorts of things, get creative, activate and cut the greens, rub your body and run like a Hulk to imagine at night pretend you have been exposed to toxic waste. Use for outdoor recreation, use indoor for emergencies or for fun. A small stick is good for marking a trail at night, large sticks eliminate a large dark area. I find that green is generally best for lighting purposes and burn time. I often go backcountry with friends in the woods and to mark our trails we nail or tie them to trees to find a safe way back. Their large green and white canes are clearly visible from 500 meters away. We sometimes use them for night fishing with our gear to attract fish when that is of course allowed. I usually get 12 hours of bright light, which means that during this time you can clearly light a normal bedroom or office in your house, it slowly gets darker and by 18 hours it's quite dark. I have hundreds of these - the durability is forever, I have 25 year olds that I use and they work just like new ones.
