I had a chance to test out the Glo-Toob™ FX I grabbed with my last gear purchase. I’m impressed, as I usually am with well-built micro-gadgetry, with the little light’s brightness and obviously solid construction. The Glo-Toob is essentially the battery-powered equivalent of a lightstick, though a bit brighter and far more economical thanks to it’s long battery life (30-80 hours) and comparatively cheap battery (one 23A battery costs about the same as one 8-hour lightstick). Add to that the multiple lighting modes, negative buoyancy (and extreme depth rating), and superior durability and you’ve more than made up for the mere $20 price tag. I find it to be a perfectly sized companion to my slightly larger than normal vehicle key, but most will find the 2.75 by 0.75 inch ‘toob better suited for attachment to a backpack or other gear.
