1 edit | The glow rods that i have are "lime green" in color....i have 4 of them.
You can leave them out in the sunlight so they charge up.
After drilling a hole in the "top plate" of the wall, you run them down between the studs & you can see where they are because they're *glowing* in the wall.
Each glow rod is 4ft in length & they are made of fiberglass....so they can flex.
They each have the little metal screw-on connectors on the tips of them....this way they screw together so they are longer when fishing the walls.
You also attach your coax, phoneline or cat5 cable (whatever you're running) to end of the last glow rod so they pull right through the hole at the bottom of the wall.
