LED glow sticks use light-emitting diodes (LEDs) instead of chemical reactions to produce light. They are reusable and can be switched on and off. LED glow sticks often have multiple color options, flashing modes, and can last longer than traditional glow sticks. They are a great choice if you want a glow stick that can be used multiple times. If you have individuals or pets in your home, we recommend that you buy LED light sticks instead of any kind of chemical glow sticks.
