Available in different sizes: Ever since their invention, glow sticks have been useful in various tactical, non-tactical, recreational and other practical operations. They became more functional after being made available in different sizes with additional features. Starting from 1.5 inches, the lengths and the dimensions vary up to 22 inches.

Mini glow sticks (1.5''-3''): These are the smallest ones with length ranging between 1.5 to 3 inches and have a fixed width of 5 mm. They can glow brightly for 1 to 2 hours and with dim light they can glow for several hours. These mini light sticks are widely used as baits in night fishing. Further, they can replace the candles on birthday cakes and can be used to make glow balloons. In Halloween's, they are used to make glow costumes, hair decorations and so on. In games like golf, they are used to light the golf ball and to mark different places in the golf court.
Normal glow sticks (4''-8''): The normal ones vary in length from 4 to 8 inches with a varying width of 5-10 mm. They are used for various purposes. Normal ones with minimum widths are flexible to bend and make glow necklaces, bracelets and rings. Other accessories such as glow garlands and headwear can also be made using connectors. Unlike other sizes, they generally have a hook on the top and a stand at the bottom to make them hang or stand.
6'' light sticks are the brightest of all and can glow brightly up to 12 hours after which the light becomes dim and continue to glow for long time. They are used in various party decorations. They are also used by professionals like rescuers, divers and campers.
