Great product, way better then the cheapies at Wally World.,
I’m the kind of person who likes to test their gear before relying on it in the backwoods, so I cracked one of these as soon as I opened the package. I was easily able to navigate around a pitch-black house and yard, without the benefit of any other artificial light. It was brighter than other glow sticks I’ve tried (Coleman brand, for example), and was still putting out enough light to read by a full 12 hours later. The plastic walls are angled instead of round, and are thicker than any others I’ve tried, which means they should hold up well against accidental cracking in the backpack. No lanyards are included, FYI, but I don’t consider that too much of a detriment. Overall: great product, very reasonable price.

|Good product, false picture,
The picture with the “Snaplight” word is not the product that I received. Instead, I received a similar product of the “Mayday” brand with a different packaging.
The Snaplight brand is from Cyalume, a more expensive brand. Even though this seller did not put Cyalume anywhere in the description, the pictures are misleading and false. The Snaplight brand also shows a yellow packaging with yellow light which doesn’t match the green light description.
The product works and glows but not as brightly as Cyalume or other brands. You get what you paid for.

|Not the best,
I bought this set as it came with 10 sticks so i could actually test one before hand. I normally test all my things out before heading into the bush. I set it up at midnight and had it in my room until the next day. Normally with lights its harder to sleep but this light was mediocre at best. It had half strenght light compared to a normal glow stick or other brands/versions like the military grade. If i was trying to signal someone then i would be alright however these should be used as an emergency only type if you do buy them. If i lost my crank light, this would keep me comfort, but dont provide enough light to go wandering with it. At best they get a three out of five mainly for quanity, not quality.
