Power a Glow Stick with an LED Light [Video]

Power a Glow Stick with an LED Light [Video]:




Glow sticks are fun, and you can even make them yourself, but the light will fade in a few hours. If you'd like to keep your glow stick's glow for longer than that you can attach the casing of a glow stick to a colored LED light to get the same effect but for a much longer duration.
YouTube user DJSickness shares his method of converting a used glow stick into an LED-powered light. You'll want to cut open one end of the glow stick with a utility knife, drain the liquid, and cut two notches to fit around the bulb of the LED light, and secure the light to the housing with electrical tape.
You can pick up the lights pretty inexpensively at places like Harbor Freight or Amazon is happy to sell them to you for under ten bucks.
