The Cyalume ChemLight® Mini Infrared (IR) light stick (military) is a compact, battery-free marking tool designed for covert identification and signalling when operating under night vision devices (NVD/NVG).
Infrared output is not intended to be visible to the naked eye, helping teams maintain light discipline while still enabling effective coordination and marking in low-light environments.
With a 1.5 in mini format and an approximate 3-hour IR glow, this pack of 50 is ideal for distributing across kits and teams for repeatable tasks such as equipment identification, lane/route marking, control point indicators, and low-signature training activities.
