Swiss Safe Premium 6" Glow Sticks - Extra Bright, 12+ Hour Duration, Emergency Ready

I purchased Swiss Safe glow sticks not for their intended purpose but for something I’ll be trying in the next few weeks. But first, a few words about the seller, Erick, founder of Swiss Safe Products. I received an email from Erick and his message is a sincere appreciation for my purchase, my full satisfaction of the product and assurance to resolve any issue should something develop. This type of customer service is very much appreciated and confident he’ll uphold his guarantee.The glow sticks are designed and constructed well. They’re capable of standing upright and also equipped with a hole and hook if hanging is desired. The purpose of my purchase is to utilize them for night fishing where a submerged light is used to attract fish. The hole will be used to attach a monofilament line along with a small lead weight to keep it submerged. This idea keeps it simple compared to others who carry burdensome 12V batteries to energize a submersible lamp. I don’t anticipate any setbacks since these glow sticks are water proof and fully submersible and the 12+ hour duration is more than what’s needed. Also, the green glow has been known to attract fish. Taking all into consideration, this particular glow stick is the best choice for my upcoming adventure.

Great product that has a dozen or more uses. These glow sticks/chem-lights are a must have item for campers, preppers, shooters, explorers, anyone needing light for extreme conditions or extra light. Super fast shipping and seller has good communication.

EDITED AT 6 HOURS, ADDED TO BOTTOM.Individually packaged in fairly heavy foil/plastic material, my initial thought was to the immediate feel of quality. These certainly don't strike you as a child's toy. Included with each stick is a 38" length of fairly light-duty elastic string - a nice touch. You'll notice that, yes, as many others point out - the package does state a 6 hour lifespan. I'll follow up once I've seen it at 6 and 12 hours... The internal capsule breaks easily and full brightness is achieved in a few moments with a couple of good shakes. At 12" the brightness was plenty enough to read the fine print on the back of a Tums bottle. At 36" my fire extinguisher was dimly visible. After a few minutes in a pitch black garage my eyes had adjusted and the glow sticks certainly illuminated my immediate area well enough to avoid a stubbed toe, but not much more than that. Overall I'd say these are a good choice for a basic preparedness bag, first aid kit, tool box, etc. I will revise to a five star review if there is still a reasonable light-output at the 12 hour mark.6-HOUR EDIT: I've added an additional image from the 6-hour mark. Sure - it's still glowing - but at a markedly lower brightness. I can hold it close to objects to read or MUCH closer to the ground to walk but the illumination isn't enough that I'd count on it. I'd have cracked another one by now were I in a situation where light was critical. Definitively NOT useful as a 12-hour (or 6-hour) glow stick.I see no reason to follow up at 12-hours. I'd be tossing it before 6. Definitely still worth 4 stars, nothing more, nothing less.

I was most impressed by the ease in ordering, the speed I received it and the quality of the item. The one I tested was very brilliant making it a very useful tool for a car emergency or a kid walking in the dark (Halloween). There is nothing to dislike. p.s. Our cats love this one.

Bought these for Halloween since we’re supposed to socially distance and we wanted other people to see/stay away from us. I started one to test, it was extremely bright, lasted overnight as a “nightlight,” and my 4-year old I was using the Force to make it glow! The only issue is that now my kids keep asking me to light off more...I should have bought more than 6!

I was looking for glow sticks to have in case of an emergency with bad weather and loss of power. These are perfect and they give me peace of mind knowing I have them just in case!

These things are amazing. It was so bright in my room when I cracked one out of curiosity that I was terrified it would wake my 2 year old up and excite him into a psychotic mentally ill frenzy. Absolutely love them and very worthy of their spot in my bug out bag.

Nice bright glow when you activate them- DOES NOT LAST ANYWHERE CLOSE TO ADVERTISED 12 HOURS.Lasted close to 4 hours (very dim)
