Streamlight Stylus Pro Review

The Streamlight Stylus Pro is a small pen type flashlight. The small form factor makes it a great addition to your everyday carry kit. At less than six inches it is easily carried in your pocket and it's thin cross section will not disturb your everyday activities.  This is not an extremely bright light at only 48 lumens compared to other lights which provide hundreds of lumens. This is more for the situations where you need a light quick...

It makes sense to do it, after all this is done so you can find your gear easier in low light situations. Many use glow powder and pigments mixed with epoxy or other resins. Although the only disadvantage I see on this is that you need to "charge" the material for it to glow. In that case if you decide to do it, shop arround for the powder that gives...
