FAQs
How long do the glow sticks stay bright?
The glow sticks provide maximum intensity for several hours, with a gradual fade over the remainder of the night.
Are these sticks reusable?
No, these are single-use chemical light sticks and cannot be turned off or recharged once activated.
Can I use these underwater?
Yes, the waterproof housing makes them safe for use in wet conditions, including shallow water.
What should I do if the stick leaks?
While the housing is durable, if it leaks, wash the liquid off skin or clothes immediately with soap and water to avoid mild irritation.
How should I store them when not in use?
Store them in their original sealed packaging in a cool, dark, and dry environment to maximize longevity.
Are they safe for children?
They are safe for general use, but they should be kept away from children under 3 years old and used under adult supervision.
Troubleshooting
Stick will not illuminate after bending
Ensure that the internal glass capsule has fully fractured; you should feel it break and see the liquids begin to mix when shaken.
Brightness appears uneven
Shake the glow stick more thoroughly to ensure the two reactive liquids are properly blended along the entire length of the tube.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To activate your Milestone glow stick, firmly bend the plastic tube until you hear the inner glass capsule break, then shake the stick vigorously to mix the contents. For storage, keep the sticks in their original packaging in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the chemical shelf life. Avoid putting excessive pressure on the sticks before use, as premature activation will shorten their lifespan. Once used, the sticks are fully sealed and can be disposed of in standard household waste, though they should not be cut open or ingested under any circumstances.
