Review on 🌟 Glow-in-the-Dark Embrite BEACON Morale Patch: 2"x3" Velcro Attachment - Find the Perfect Patch! by Sasha Hsiao

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Shockingly bright. Perfect size.

Excellent. This exceeds the brightness I expected. Plate thickness just right. It's not flexible so if you need it to fit over something it won't unless you melt it. The first photo shows the GITD panel just removed from the envelope it came in. Then I loaded it. First I hit it with one of my UV flashlights, around 365nm (2nd photo). For fast sweep about 30 seconds. Later that evening, after the room went dark, I got a third photo at 365nm for 2 minutes and then again at 395nm, at medium to full power, giving the same brightness. which quickly wore out. It just took longer to charge in the lower nanometer range. I then hit it with a 2w tactical flashlight (set to maximum brightness) for 1 minute in the 4th photo, which gave it a much brighter glow that lasted much longer. I plan to buy a few more of these for my various bags and slings. .When grading he asks to rate the heat?! These things aren't meant to be heated, the chemical reaction that produces light requires very little energy. Want to keep warm in an emergency? Take enough hand warmers with you. You want to read a map, change a tire, look in the trunk for tools that might help you. I would still recommend a little UV light for charging though. As I typed this, the glow faded greatly. I don't see it lasting 8 hours where it could be used.
