LED Glow-In-The-Dark Flashlight for Safety & Fun

Get Your Pelican ProGear Flashlight in Time for Halloween!

Now this is brilliant. How many times have the lights gone out and you need a flashlight - but you can't find it? Or maybe you want to keep one by your bed but in the pitch black of night, you still may have a hard time locating it when you need it?

Well, your days of fumbling around in the dark are over. The 3310PL LED Flashlight incorporates photoluminescent technology which emits a bright glow - making it highly visible even in pitch black environments. And, with a run time of 190 hours (low setting), the new 3310PL LED proves itself invaluable in emergency situations.


This is a compact flashlight but it is BRIGHT (when set on high). And it's going to be great for the kids when they are trick or treating around the neighborhood next weekend! They can turn it off when they don't need it, and it will still glow. Plus, it features a removable lanyard so that they can wear the flashlight around their necks - that will come in handy on more than just Halloween. 

Last night one of our dogs "escaped" and decided to tour the new neighborhood. I was so thankful for this flashlight! Not only were the boys (and my husband) able to find the runaway hound, but I could see them from quite a distance since the light is so bright. I could see them coming home from more than two blocks away.

The flashlight is also waterproof (always a bonus) and even better, offers three settings - high, low and flashing. I think there are several uses for the flashing option - one would be as an emergency signal. I've never seen a flashlight do this, so it's a really smart feature. And then of course, flashing can just be fun. In an arena during a concert, outside playing night games in the cul-de-sac (this will bring new meaning to Flashlight Tag).  The boys love it.

I received one of these for review and I am tempted to buy another  - based on our experiences with power outages, I know this would come in very handy in scary situations!

And I just noticed a price drop on Amazon - it is currently available for $29.97. Another reason I love Amazon Prime - free two-day shipping! This is well worth it - it's definitely not your average flashlight!
