A Cold-light Flare is a sealed plastic tube, usually 10cm long. The interior contains two chemicals separated by a plastic or thin glass membrane. When bent and shaken (mixing the chemicals) it starts a bioluminescence chemical reaction producing an intense light in a 15-meter radius for 5 minutes. The light cannot be turned off once started. Once the chemical reaction has run its course, the tube is discarded. Used in situations where Smoke Flares would be inappropriate.
