Light Sticks - available at iPrepare.com During an emergency, having a reliable and convenient light source will help ensure your safety. Light sticks are an excellent light source to include in your disaster kits, and are used by the US military and Homeland Security. These light sticks are small and compact – and easy to store in your glove compartment, disaster kit, office drawer, or anywhere you may need quick access to a light source. Lighting a match or candle during a power outage isn’t safe until you are certain there is no leaking gas. Light sticks are an excellent and safe light source to use immediately when the power goes out – since they are non-flammable, you can be confident they will be a safe alternative to help you through any situation. In addition to emergencies, you can enjoy them during your walks at night, on your camping trips, or as fun night lights for the kids! Each light stick is individually wrapped, and has a 2 to 5 year shelf life. They are non-toxic, and safe for the whole family to use. Once activated, these light sticks provide an emergency light source lasting for 12 hours (they are also available in a higher intensity 30-minute version). Less
