• Based on the same remarkable chemistry of a firefly – Cyalume lightbars create instant, safe, reliable light by mixing two safe chemicals in a plastic casing. 1) Oxalate: Fluorescers for color; 2) Activator: To stimulate color. • Oxalate is isolated and sealed in a thin glass ampoule; this tube is placed into a larger, transparent plastic casing (lightstick) which is filled with activator and sealed. When the lightstick is bent, the glass ampoule breaks, chemicals mix and create light – but no heat, flame or spark.
