Cynalume is the Brand Name for those "crack and shake" light-sticks which are made by the American Cynamid Company. Basically, they have two chemicals in them which, when mixed, give off cold light...that is, light without any heat. They were originally created for the US Military, but have managed to find their way into everything. They are especially popular in the emergency services as they don't require batteries or any external energy source. They have even managed to find their way into the rave scene (I mean come on, those things look awesome at a club ).

They originally came in only yellow/green, but are now available in Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Purple, White, Ultraviolet and Infra-red. The IR ones work VERY well for night-vision.

(edit: corrected spelling)
