    Found some 3mm glow in the dark cord

    http://www.rei.com/online/store/Prod...cat=REI_SEARCH


    I did a search on REI for climbing cord. Found this 3mm PMI Niteline cord that glows in the dark and is reflective. Sounds like I will enjoy NOT tripping over this at night!

    If you don't think this stuff is neato you're a lame-o unless you're blind...in which case you're cool with me.

    They need to invent glow-in-the-dark stuff that's stealthy in normal light...then I'd buy it

    Where in the product description does it say that it's reflective? It sounds like it would solve two issues if it's both reflective and glow-in-the-dark... GITD only does not do much for me.

    Maybe I missed something...

    I think I saw that when I did a search for the cord on another site...I have it in now and it IS reflective. There is one strand of reflective gray intertwined that is barely visible in the photo and that is reflective. It also does glow int he dark pretty wall! Not nuclear glow but, along with the reflectiveness it will be seen even with sleep in my eyes! Im thinking of getting some more. Some ladies like shoes...I like glow in the dark cord!

    Very cool, thank you.

    Is that price per foot or per yard, do you know? If not, I will call REI. I am definitely interested in getting some of this cord.

    I have mine in and am thinking of ordering more. I dunno what I'm gonna do with it but, it works well. The reflective strip is just enough not too much and the glow is as described. Its per foot.

    I use reflective glo cord on my tarp tie outs so it's easier to find my hammock at night.
