Instant light, anywhere

The Snaplight Safety Lightstick delivers dependable green light exactly when you need it. There is nothing to charge and nothing to switch on: you bend the stick until it snaps, give it a shake, and it glows for up to 12 hours. That simplicity is why chemical lightsticks live in glove boxes, grab bags and chest rigs the world over.

Safe where flames are not

Because the light is a chemical reaction, the stick produces no heat, flame or spark. It is non-toxic and non-flammable, so you can use it around fuel, in a tent, or in any situation where a naked flame or a hot bulb would be a hazard.

Weatherproof and visible

The stick is waterproof and actually floats, so rain and puddles are no problem, and its 360-degree glow can be seen from a long way off. That makes it a reliable marker, path light or signalling aid.

Ready when you are

Each stick is foil-wrapped with a shelf life of up to 5 years, so a handful stashed away will be good to go for seasons to come. A firm favourite for night skirmishes, camping and emergency kit, sitting alongside our wider tactical gear.

Frequently asked questions

How long does the lightstick glow for?

A single stick gives up to 12 hours of steady green light once activated, plenty for a full night of use.

How do I turn it on?

Bend the stick until the inner capsule snaps, then shake it to mix the contents. The glow starts instantly with no batteries or switch.

Is it safe to use indoors or near fuel?

Yes. It is non-toxic, non-flammable and gives off no heat, flame or spark, so it is safe where a naked flame would not be.

Will it work in the rain or water?

It is waterproof and even floats, which makes it useful in wet weather, on the water, or as a marker.

How long can I store them for?

Each stick is individually foil-wrapped and has a shelf life of up to 5 years from manufacture, so they are ideal for a grab bag or emergency kit.
