Cyalume — Military-Grade Chemical Light Sticks
Cyalume invented the modern chemlight in the 1960s — and remains the supplier of choice for U.S. military, law enforcement, and serious emergency-response applications. 6-hour and 12-hour durations, multiple colors, rated for extreme conditions.
Why Cyalume over generic chemlights
Generic glow sticks are made for parties. Cyalume products are made to military specifications: brighter output, longer duration, broader temperature range, and consistent performance from one stick to the next. The difference is dramatic at -20°F or in a serious emergency.
Use cases
- Marking routes, vehicles, and personnel at night
- Identifying drop zones and helicopter landing sites
- Hands-free lighting in tent or shelter environments
- Signal devices for ground-to-air visibility
