FLOWTOYS COMPOSITE SYSTEM - COMPONENTS

FLOWLIGHT-FS: World’s most revolutionary LED glowstick. Beautifully 

sculpted polycarbonate shell refracts full spectrum LEDs. 40 adjustable 

modes with many bright and beautiful color options, kinetic awareness, 

accelerometer response, battery and charge level indicators and more.  

1 rechargeable AAA provides 3-27 hours run-time. Connect as many as you 

like to fill your tubes with lights. 

CAPSULE LIGHT: Incredibly strong polycarbonate shell diffuses 12 LEDs 

into a single pixel of a million colors. MicroUSB rechargeable Li-ion battery 

for 6-77 hour run-time! Link up to 2 together. Intuitive one-button interface 

and “kinetic awareness” enable you to select and adjust a virtually infinite 

variety of amazing light patterns.

1” TUBES: Highest quality polycarbonate extrusion, transparent yet virtu-

ally bulletproof, connects to caps and connectors via snap-button holes. 

Available in a variety of interchangeable lengths for instant reconfiguration.

CARBON FIBER SHAFT:

 

 Custom woven carbon fiber composite with 

smooth, glossy finish, 12mm and 15mm diameters. Thin and light-weight 

yet super-strong and rigid, enabling effortless flow.

ELASTOMER GRIP: 1mm thick tubing of a proprietary elastomer blend (our 

supplier won’t even tell us the formula!). Incredibly grippy and durable, yet 

translucent. Encases carbon fiber shafts for seamless grip. 

SCREW-IN CONNECTORS: Identical halves compress 1mm elastomer 

against a composite shaft to create a firm connection. #1 phillips screws 

secure tube. Use a #1 phillips screwdriver to break down staff for travel.

FLOWCAP:  Thick, soft, durable silicone body. Inner polycarbonate snap-

cap buttons snap securely onto tubes and release with a firm twist. Built-in 

button compatible with capsule lights; connects to flowlights with adaptor.

FLOWLIGHT ADAPTOR: Allows you to connect flowlights to flowcaps. Pops 

on and off easily, but will not release flowlight when inside a tube.

POD SHELL: Beautiful, thick, super-soft and durable silicone, built-in 

button compatible with capsule lights, strategic internal petal-ribs provide 

structure and focus mass at the bottom for great rotational inertia. Pod 

shells attach to tubes with a friction fit - please read instructions and 

use caution.

FLOWMASS: These translucent crystalline-looking weights add more 

inertia to your flow and optimize the balance of your staff. Add two or more 

if you like your tools heavy! 

 

CAPSULE LINK: Tiny but tough, this link fits inside leash-ports of 2 capsules 

to link them securely inside tubes. Leaves both buttons accessible.
