Any help?

I have loads of Cyalume lightsticks... the Green ones last for 12 hours and give a good light to about two three metres,... Yellow ones they say they last 30 minutes, but I find they last at least twice as long, and are good light for lighting camp sites or cooking areas,... Blue ones they last 8 hours,..and give a light to about a metre,.. and red ones last 12 hours and dont give a lot of light, but would be enough to move around ground if you took your time

Although you cant see too far with some of the colors,.. the same colors can be seen from quiet a way off,...I know this because they are great for hanging onto tent guy ropes so you can find your tent after a wander off

Nice one. Thanks for the info.

I'm thinking it would only be worth getting some for location/rescue/signalling reasons. Anything else, just use my torch.

Really appreciate all the help guys....yes even you NR.
