Emergency Light Sticks, 6, Lasts 12 Hours, 10/BX, Red

Moins chère en magasin et même qualité.

Satisfait

Red is good for marking different things, but not as bright as other colors. Industrial appeared just as bright as this Military grade one.I compared the six colors in both Military and Industrial, see images for more information. Overall, I did not notice a significant difference between the Military and the Industrial grade. I do like that the wrappers on the Industrial ones show the color clearly, while the Military has only the name of the color. I've found that they last the time advertised, note that the white and blue ones are rated for less time than the others, 8 hours vs. 12. (There are other models with differences in brightness/duration). The brightest ones by my measures, were the Yellow and Green ones, followed by the Orange ones. Red, Blue, and White would not be bright enough to read a map; but are good for marking things in a campsite or elsewhere. Other uses: give each child a different color so you can locate them easier, marking different hiking or skiing trails, or use different color to locate first aid/water/etc..

I just got finished really testing these out for longevity and brightness and I'm not disappointed. First for longevity, For the first 12 hours they stayed consistently bright, and they stayed lit for 2 hours after that before finally dimming. They were still dimly lit 20 hours after I first initiated them. For longevity it definitely gets a 5 for 5. They aren't overly bright, they will light a map or anything you are trying to read but they won't light your immediate surroundings but that's also not what they are meant for. They are meant for reading maps and signaling which they would do great in. Overall, they do what they are meant to do and outlast the 12 hours they are advertised for. There is also a clip at the top to make it easier to attach to packs or anything really so there is a high usefulness as well.

I used these at an advanced firearms training event held through dusk and into the dark of night. They were used to mark the firing lines at various distances, as well as provide just enough illumination to see inside of range bags, diagnose malfunctions etc. without ruining our night vision. I've used other glow sticks that didn't last as long, but these lasted 8+ hours and were still going strong when we wrapped up. The white versions were used for similar purposes and worked equally well.
