So i started stringing about a year ago, and i started with sticks then i got some LEDs and i use those occasionally but i dont know what is better to use. i like how light the LEDs are and how bright they are but when ever they run into each other they fall appart and the batteries go everywhere. the glowsticks are heavier and dont break unless i swing to fast and it flies off.. what do you guys think?

ive used flo-lights but i think they are to fragile for using on strings.

i use crystal poi from flowtoys been spinnng with the same leds for 7 months or so. and they still work.

i use them every other day and they do run into eachother sometimes.

glowsticks are hard to come by in my country but i have some deads to practice with.
i sorta like them equally sticks for theur lightweight character and crystal poi for the effect and the slightly more weighted character(for antispins)

Basically everyone uses 6 inch glowsticks. If they use LEDs, they don't use them by themselves, they put them inside a stick to create LEDsticks.

I've seen people tape several Inova's on each stick which give's you added weight and a pretty cool effect. But I personally enjoy the Flowlights with the Crystal cases. The crystal cases help make sure you won't lose the batter lid and cushion the blow if the hit eachother, but I have to say that flowlights are pretty F'n durable and I like the fact that you can order new parts for them instead of having to replace the whole darn thing. But I gotta say that absolutely nothing replaces a good 'ol fashion glowstick. I love Em' XD

For practice I like to use my LED sticks but for when I am shooting a video glowsticks are it. I like the weight better and I think the light distribution is better.
