Glow Vest

Common safety vests are only effective when light (from headlights) shines directly on them.  Unfortunately, this is often too late for an oncoming car to swerve out of the way. By creating a glowing garment, a road worker or other person in a street is far more visible from greater distance – so that a driver has the ability to change directions or alter their course.  The glowing property should last at least 3 hours without a recharge.  This would be a perfect companion for those walks around the river or other dark places.

By adding strontium aluminate to a dopium such as europium, a luminance phosphor is created that is offered by CosasPrep as a class of safety products.  Not simply reflective, as is commonly available, these products actually glow.  Whether marking the sides of steps with a glowing strip, roping off an area that might not be easily seen at night, or wearing a safety vest that does not require reflection, these products absorb light and then glow for hours afterwards. While they are best charged by sunlight, other light also charges the luminance of these products.

These are imported products that are manufactured in Canada and we doubt that you can find anything like them locally.
