Tooblite What is a Tooblite? The Tooblite is a reusable glow stick. What makes the Tooblite reusable? The Tooblite absorbs lights (similar to glow-in-the-dark), so it can be recharged from any light source including: sunlight, LEDs, black lights, ambient light, household bulbs, etc. If it is bright enough for you to see the Tooblite is absorbing light. So even on a cloudy overcast day it is absorbing the UV rays. How Much Light Does the Tooblite Give Off? The Tooblite makes a great marker in dark environments. The Tooblite does not have a lot of surface area therefore it does not provide a lot of illumination. If you’re looking for a night light, use a UVPaqlite that’s why it was designed. If you’re trying to locate items in the dark attach a Tooblite or ToobliteMini to them. What is inside the Tooblite? The Tooblite is filled with glow-in-the-dark crystals, made from strontium aluminate. These crystals are suspended in a solid epoxy so it is durable. How many times can it be recharged? The Tooblite can be recharged over and over again forever. It never loses its ability to recharge and it will never expire. That’s what makes it great for emergency kits, bug out bags, or 72 kits. You don’t have to worry about expiration dates. How long will the Tooblite glow? You will be able to see & identify the Tooblite in the dark all night long (+8hrs). The Tooblite uses supercharged glow-in-the-dark so the light diminshes over a 4 day period. For example: If you left a Tooblite in a dark cave for 4 days, you would still be able to see it glowing with your eyes fully adjusted to the dark. It would be very dim but you could identify it. What makes the Tooblite different from tradtional glow sticks? Traditional glow sticks are one time use products that require users to activate the light by shaking or breaking the tube. Traditional glow sticks utilize a chemical reaction whereas our Tooblite uses photoluminescence (glow-in-the-dark). We use enhanced glow-in-the-dark technology that is why our product is bright enough to be a light source all night long. Some traditional glow sticks may intialally be brighter than the Tooblite, but the Tooblite will out last those products because it can be reused/recharged over-and-over again FOREVER. Where can I use the Tooblite? The Tooblite is designed to be durable, waterproof, and glow in any weather condition, so use it anywhere! It is a great addition to emergency kits, bug out bags, and 72 hour kits. Tooblite glow-sticks are used for many purposes. They are waterproof, do not use batteries, generate no heat, and are non-toxic They can tolerate high pressures, such as those found underwater. They are used as light sources and light markers by military forces, campers, search and rescue teams and recreational divers doing night diving. Glow sticks are considered the kind of light source that is safe for use immediately following an earthquake, hurricane,tornado, or other catastrophic emergency situation due to the fact that they do not use any kind of electricity to work and do not create any dangerous sparks. They can also be used for night-time fishing as a lure. Glow sticks providing decor at a party provide an original look and feel to any event. Glowsticking is the use of glow sticks in dancing. This is one of their most widely known uses in popular culture as they are frequently used for entertainment at parties (particularly raves), concerts and dance clubs. They are carried by marching band conductors for night-time performances; furthermore, in Hong Kong glow sticks are widely used during the annual Mid-Autumn Festival, and in Iceland they are commonly seen during New Year’s Eve. Glow sticks carried by trick-or-treaters on Halloween neatly serve multiple functions as toys, readily visible and unusual night-time warnings to motorists, and luminous markings which enable parents to keep their brightly color-coded children in sight. Yet another aesthetic usage is for balloon-carried light effects. Glow sticks are also used to create special effects in low light photography and film.
