Comparing Safe Glow Products and Cheap Glow Sticks

Glow sticks are nothing but plastic tubes having specific chemicals that produce glow on combination. Glow sticks are generally available in different sizes ranging from 1.5” to 12”. It is known for most of us that glow sticks are used at rave parties, night clubs, and other entertainment events. However, they are also used for safety and emergencies. Specific industrial safe glow products and cheap glow sticks are available in market which are used for these purposes. However, both of them have certain differences.

Cheap glow sticks are used for recreational purposes at parties. They are available as glow necklaces, glow bracelets, rings and many others. As the parties or concerts last for few hours, cheap glow sticks are better to use which glow only for certain time period. However, the safe glow products glow for about 12 hours.

On occurrence of emergency situations and blackouts, glow sticks can be used in place of flashlights. Unlike flashlights, glow sticks do not need charging by batteries. They even glow for a long time. Hence, safe glow products are preferred for emergencies. Safe glow sticks are generally 6” long. They are also light in weight and compact. Hence they can be carried around, activated and used at any place easily. They are also costlier than the cheap glow sticks.

The other difference between the safe glow products and cheap glow sticks is the brightness of glow. The safe glow products are much brighter than the cheaper ones. They also differ in their colors. Cheap glow sticks are available in eight different colors including yellow, pink, blue, orange, white, red, green, and purple. However, glow products used for safety and emergencies mostly use green and yellow lights as they are more brighter when compared to others. So choose the type of glow sticks based on your purpose of usage.
