The Cyalume SnapLight flare alternative chemical light stick is the flare alternative you didn’t even know you needed! This durable, waterproof signaling device is safer and more reliable than typical pyrotechnic flares thanks to their non-flammable, no-heat generated chemistry. Additionally, these chemical light sticks provide intense, bright red light for up to 2 hours – no matter what condition or environment they are in. They’re the perfect choice as emergency or safety lights and an ideal flare alternative. SnapLight flare alternative lights also come with a metal bipod stand, which prevents rolling and positions each light stick at the optimal angle for visibility.
They’re even safer to store than traditional flares, which is one reason they are Department of Transportation (DOT) Non-Hazardous certified. There’s no need for additional storage permits, and the certification ensures safe use for fleets and mass transit organizations. These flare alternative chemical light sticks are the preferred signaling device for fleet and mass transit departments across the country.
Made in the USA under strict quality guidelines, you can rest easy knowing each flare alternative light will work without issue when you need it most. These chemical light sticks also come with a guaranteed 2-year shelf life.
Cyalume has long been considered a pioneer and world leader in chemical lighting solutions for tactical and safety applications. Trusted by the US Military and government agencies for over 40 years, our products will perform when you need them to – without question

As described. I have not used them yet thankfully … As described. I have not used them yet thankfully. They were purchased to use in an emergency for Oversize Load Transport if something happened on a night move. I can not say how long they last since they have not been used yet. If they do last and are bright then it would be worth 5 stars.
Which color should you get? Because human eyes are much better at seeing shades of color towards the green part of the spectrum, green light sticks will always appear brighter than red, which we see relatively poorly, even though I suspect both light stick colors put off the same amount of absolute brightness. By that reasoning alone, you might be inclined to buy the green version of these, which *seem* much brighter than the red ones. If you’re interested in light to work by in the dark, and don’t have a flashlight…
Highly recommended Fresh pack, definitely lasts for 2 hours – they probably could have marketed these as 4 hours. Temperature of use was 65-75F (18-24C). Visible for over a mile (~1.6km) in moonless clear (no mist/fog) night – using the simple wire stand helps with distance, getting the glow stick up off the ground improves the ability to see it past road surface changes which is important.I have 30 minute flares/fuses and these glow sticks are not as bright as those, but the flare flame is more…
