12-Hour Chemical Glow Sticks (Pack of 10)

No batteries, no flame: a dim light that works in a drawer for years
£0.99 + £6.00 delivery
Delivery is charged per product because each item ships directly from its supplier, so items can arrive separately. Estimated delivery 10-20 working days. Tracked.

Single-use chemical light sticks, 6 inches long, that glow for about 12 hours when you bend and snap them. They need no batteries, produce no heat and are sealed, which makes them a handy backup in a stair cupboard or go bag.

They give a soft glow, not a torch beam, so use them to mark stairs, doorways, a child's bed or a path in the garden. Each one is single use and can be kept unopened for a couple of years.

Key features

  • About 12 hours glow time (supplier claim)
  • No battery or flame needed
  • 6 inch (150mm) size
  • Waterproof sealed tube
  • Good for marking paths and doors
  • Cheap enough to scatter around the house

How to use it

Bend a glow stick until the inner capsule snaps, shake it, and use it to mark stairs, doors or paths.

  1. Take one glow stick out of its wrapper and hold it in both hands.
  2. Bend it until you feel or hear the inner capsule snap.
  3. Shake it a few times to mix the contents and start the glow.
  4. Put it where you need a marker, such as on stairs, a doorway, beside a child's bed or along a garden path.
  5. Throw it away safely once it has faded, as each one is single use.
Tips
  • They give a soft glow, not a torch beam, so use them for marking.
  • Keep unopened sticks in a stair cupboard or go bag.
Safety and limits
  • Do not cut or open the tube; if it splits, keep the contents away from skin, eyes and mouth and wash with water.
  • Keep them away from young children and pets, who might chew them.
Please note
  • Single use only; contents are not for swallowing and should be kept away from small children
  • Not a replacement for a torch
  • Actual glow time depends on temperature and brand
