**Carrier Pouch Not Included.**

What is the burn time?

Four Hours at maximum output. The Marking Sticks will continue to put out a gradually diminishing amount of light for hours or even days afterwards.

How much does it weigh?

A fully loaded MARCO Dispenser weighs 3.9oz. The Ten-Speed Belt Hanger pouch weighs 1.3oz.

Once opened, how long will they last?

The 2 inch marking sticks will begin degrading the moment the foil bag is opened. Multiple environmental factors make it impossible to give an exact estimate on how long they will maintain maximum efficacy after opening. Things like extreme heat, extreme cold, and exposure to UV light will further shorten their life-span.

What is the shelf life?

Each bag, box, and case is marked with the 'Expires on' date. From the day they are manufactured, the MARCO marking sticks have a guaranteed 4 year shelf life if stored according to manufacturer guidelines.

Are they toxic?

The internal illuminating chemical substance is non-toxic and non-flammable. It is possible that exposure to the chemicals could be a mild irritant for some individuals.

Will they break open if you step on them?

It is highly unlikely that the sticks will burst when stepped on.

WARNING: This product can expose you to chemicals including carbon monoxide, lead and lead components, which is known to the State of California to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov
