Darkniteglow.com,
a subsidiary of glo-net.com, has been dealing with glow in the
dark products, since the mid 90's. Back then, not many were
aware of this technology, leave alone use it. We brought in
the raw material, (Glow Powder)
and from there, developed a wide range of other
products. Details of how we started and progressed are outlined
in our news
page.
We know our products
and its capabilities well. We do not make false claims like
having the brightest or invisible glow products as there is
no such thing. Some of our competitors, like to use MSDS terms
like mcd/m2, to claim that they carry the brightest
glow products in the market. You can read more about this at Glowinfo.com.
While brightness
is measured in mcd/m2, We do not use this to grade
our products because:
1) mcd/m2
is used to measure the product's performance under laboratory
conditions. Under laboratory conditions, the product's performance
can vary, depending on the equipments' used for testing and
the environmental conditions. Testing glow products is not the
same as testing electrical lamps, for example.
2) We prefer to use
terms which a layman can understand, i.e. number of hours the
product can glow, based on what the human eye can see. More
details on our products can be found in our Forum .
