-=OGGY=- Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 By the look of them I think they are rolled into a room/hall/bunker/etc to light it up. No the best idea though cause I would really suck if it stopped rolling pointed down. Link to post Share on other sites

No the best idea though cause I would really suck if it stopped rolling pointed down. they will be weighted on one side to stop that happening Link to post Share on other sites
-=OGGY=- Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 Then they would point at the ceiling. Plus the second you roll one in any enemies in the room will know someone is outside about to come in; it does nothing to stun/impair/make it hard for the enemy at all. Old school breaching is so much more fun anyway. Link to post Share on other sites
fiddlesticks4220 Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 I could see those stop rolling under a couch or in a corner. kinda useless unless it is for shock effect. Link to post Share on other sites
danr Posted July 10, 2009 Report Share Posted July 10, 2009 As they roll, they have a strobe effect, due to the motion of the LED. They're meant as a distraction device, not an illumination device. They are rather effective at being distracting. Link to post Share on other sites
quinch Posted July 10, 2009 Report Share Posted July 10, 2009 Guess they’d be quite effective in Airsoft where at least 80% of the players have no “live fire” experience or training. Ball rolls in and starts strobing Players in room: “Ohhh..look at the pretty lights” Players entering room: DAKKADAKKADAKKADAKKA! Players in room: “Hit!” “Hit” “Hit” etc Crunch comes when you hit that 20% of players who aren’t distracted by such things as they’ve had real grenades thrown at them! Lol I like them, hardcore CQB specific kit though. Think I'll stick with my Thermobaric's...Flash AND a Bang, thank you. Link to post Share on other sites
danr Posted July 10, 2009 Report Share Posted July 10, 2009 I've had people throw glow-sticks into rooms in an attempt to use them as a distraction device. These balls work much better. (And there are those among us whose field rules prohibit pyros... which I'm guessing are what your "Thermobarics" are... ) And these are reusable. Link to post Share on other sites
Kraut Posted July 11, 2009 Report Share Posted July 11, 2009 I saw the video. They're very dim, not bright at all. I think they'd be useful on the first use, then everyone is used to them. Link to post Share on other sites
WhiteHawksan Posted July 12, 2009 Report Share Posted July 12, 2009 they are also useful as static lights, like for instance if you're playing in unlit bunker or something just stick these in each corner to light up the room. Many uses for mobile lights or GAFFATAPE then to any gun Link to post Share on other sites
The General Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 Hmmmm Tuf Glide down your barrel, interesting choice. I have a lot of experience with this product and Marine Tuf Cloth. Might give it a go for a giggle and see what it does. Link to post Share on other sites
