Review on 60-Pack Mylar Gusset Bag Bundle (7.5 Mil - 10" X 14") Stand-Up Zipper Pouches With 400Cc Oxygen Absorbers & Labels For Long Term Food Storage Solutions – Matte Black by Lauren Perry

Failed LED light test

I was excited to get these bags in but as I do with all my Mylar I stick a light in them and see if anything shines through. In this case I ordered the black bags with gusset. I opened the bag and used a streamlight inspection light, only 30 lumens and there were pinhole light spots shining through the seam of the gusset. I usually use a 300-500 lumen Olight but this light is what I had to inspect my flour before bagging. If at 30 lumens light is coming through then imaging at 500. I will say all of the side seams were perfect and no light transmission so if you do buy this product don’t get the bags with the gusset. Aside from that the bags are great quality but I am just picky about things like this so they are not for me. I’m sure I am just being paranoid and pinhole light transmission will probably not affect the food inside but I just can’t take the chance with prices and inflation being so high.

Pros
  • They look durable sturdy and easy to use, a very simple product.
Cons
  • Oxygen absorbers may not work as expected
