Glo-Toobs

Anybody have any experience with these? I'm thinking for tanks while night diving.

Some places (Bonaire) prohibit their use.

Try a small flashlight instead...

AMP 1L with Cone

Bonus is the integrated bottle opener...

I use one that strobes I think I paid a little less on Amazon though. I like the blink rather than the glow but it was too bright in the bahamas I kept it off for the night dives.

Haven't tried the Glo-Toob, but I like this one using the red flashing LED (it comes with a red flashing LED and a white constant on LED that you can swap):

I love my 200' glo toobs. When I night dive they are bright enough that I often don't even use a dive light. I don't like flashing strobes so these work great for me.

Off topic but I see your from lost causes. I grew up there.

The VIS up here is pretty bad with the amount of silt we have so I'm not worried about it wrecking the night dive vision.

Glo-Toobs are small flashlights. Not the chemical sticks you’re thinking of.

I see one person uses the this glow tube "night light" in place of a flashlight, but for others, how is this helpful? I got one as a free gift with purchase and have never used it. I’m interested to understand how it helps for night dives in the Caribbean or always dark fresh water lakes that are basically night dives.

Not in place of, put on your tank at night especially in low vis conditions so your buddy can see you.

We are using glow sticks right now
