you can actually go to the flashlight section in walmart and they have "flashlights" that are just like glowsticks. just with batteries. i've also seen some sick ones that have something like 8 different light patterns you can choose from. they're about 8 or 9 inches long and seem to be really durable. hardxcore plasticsss

Does anyone here want me to make the tutorial for how to make a glowstick out of an LED stick? Seems like everyone wants the durablity of a glowstick but with an LED light. It's easy to do, I can either explain it online or go and make a video when I have some time to tape a video of the way to make them.

its easy enough to just describe how to make em. get your leds i use inovas they can be found at target and shaper image. get some dead glowsticks cut one end off. which end is up to u the bottom feels a lil better but they are more likely to cut off from a low speed impact like arm wraps turn em off like that. the top the balence is a lil off but that can be fixed by adding a penny glued to the bottom of the stick. heat the area u just cut after cleaning out the glow juice and glass to make seat for the light. after the plastic softens mash the light in there it wont stick but it will fit better when u tape it on. there u have it stirng that bad boy up and have some fun


"I refuse to prove that I exist," says God, "for proof denies faith, and without faith I am nothing."
"But," say Man, "the Babel fish is a dead giveaway, isn't it? It could not have evolved by chance. It proves you exist, and so therefore, by your own arguments, you don't. QED."
"Oh dear," says God, "I hadn't though of that" and promply vanishes in a puff of logic.

I just got some glowsticks to praticice with and im going to do that once they die out. Also If you break a new pair to practice with and you dont want to use them any more let say after 30 mins and you feel like its a waste of glowsticks, you can put them in the frezer, thats where my glowsticks are right now (lol) and then use them later and they will still glow altho they wont glow as much but if you run pop them in warm water for a minute or two they will get britter. Also if you have a new pair you can do the same and run them under warm water and they will glow a bit more than they usualy do. But they might not last as long as they do.
