Once activated, how long do lightsticks last?

There are several factors that must be considered in determining how long a specific lightstick product will last.  These factors include size and temperature.  Our products typically last 6 to 12 hours. Please refer to the Specifications tab located on each product page for more information.

TEMPERATURE: Expect a brighter glow in warmer temperatures.  Also, please expect a decrease in duration of glow in warmer temperatures.  The opposite is true in cooler temperatures. For example: Products used in a climate with a temperature of 50°F will last almost twice as long as a product in climate of 90°F.  Products also emit a brighter glow at 90°F than at 50°F.

SIZE: Larger lightstick products will glow longer than smaller lightstick products.  This is because more chemicals are contained in larger lightstick products versus smaller products.

 


What is the shelf life of your products?

The shelf life of our products is 1 to 3 years, depending upon the product and how it is packaged.  To maximize the shelf life of your products, store in original packaging until ready to use.

 


How do lightsticks work?

The glow process is rather simple; when lightstick products are flexed, a chemical solution reacts with a second solution contained in the plastic casing.  This causes a mixing of two chemical which result in a form of energy that produces visible light.  No noticeable heat is released during this reaction.

 


Can I stop the glow and use it the next night? Maybe. As noted above, duration of the chemical reaction is controlled by temperature.  Therefore, by placing an active lightstick in a freezer, you may be able to extend the life of activity.
