Genius or Hilarious? 9 Glow-In-The-Dark Items For Your Trip

There are times when darkness is our adventure’s enemy, from outages to isolated campsites where the moon is the only source of light. In these situations, you could end up searching for things on the floor like a blind mice or digging your bag to infinity just to find those keys. So before these happen, check out these nine glow-in-the-dark items that you could possibly bring in your travels. Necessary or just plain silly? You decide.

1. ACK Bending Branches Compass

A compass is your best friend when you’re lost and in need of directions. But what if you’re stuck in the middle of the forest with just the moonlight shining half-heartedly to random spaces? Ok that’s not the best scenario to point out its use but all we know is this is perfect to be installed on your bike or kayak for those “Yolo” trails you plan to conquer.

2. Thumbs Up! Glow in The Dark Toilet Paper

There aren’t enough explanations for this toilet paper’s existence, but isn’t this cool? Let’s say you’re camping somewhere at night and suddenly nature calls you. Before you run and look for that safe place to mark your territory, you can just easily find and grab that glowing toilet paper. Now imagine yourself wiping off with relief using that in the middle of darkness. Let’s hope no one’s watching.

3. Arrowhead Equipment Glow Mini Zipper Pulls

Besides using these for your travel bags or pouches, these zipper pulls can also be tied around your tent’s metal pulls so you can easily see that zip when you needed to get out fast with a glow-in-the-dark toilet paper on your right hand. Just kidding!

4. Ultimate UST Portable Camping 30-Day Glo LED Lantern

You’re enjoying the warmness and brightness of campfire and suddenly it’s all gone. Just easily grab this lantern without a fuss and light it up.

5. Farza Glow-in-the-dark Flipflops

You’re in a hostel and you wanna go out a bit to pee or something.

Well, no worries, glow in the dark flip flops are here so you can easily slip in your feet and sneak out. It could be a bit annoying in the dark so just hide it under the bed before sleeping.

6. Dorcy Pocket Flashlight

Curious you enter a cave and as you walk in, it starts to get dim and you know you can’t miss those cave formations and underground creatures. Never waste time digging in your backpack because look, your flashlight is already visible, glowing, and calling you to grab it now.

7. Pure Fix Glow Bikes
