RECON GS2™ Tactical Glow-in-the-Dark Devils Cat Eyes with Velcro Mounting

Give your tactical gear a distinctive after-dark identity with the RECON GS2™ Tactical Glow-in-the-Dark Devils Cat Eyes.

Inspired by traditional military-style cat-eye identification markers, these distinctive morale patches feature photoluminescent glow-in-the-dark eyes that absorb available light and then release it gradually when conditions become dark.

The result is an unmistakable pair of glowing eyes that seem to come alive in the darkness, adding both low-light visibility and a distinctive tactical look to your equipment.

Constructed from durable nylon with a convenient Velcro-style hook backing, the Devils Cat Eyes can be quickly attached, removed or repositioned on compatible tactical packs, backpacks, pouches, vests, caps and other hook-and-loop equipped gear.

How the Glow Works

Expose the cat eyes to daylight or a suitable artificial light source to charge the photoluminescent material. Once moved into darkness, the eyes produce an afterglow that gradually reduces in brightness over time.

For the strongest initial glow, expose the patch to a bright light source before entering dark conditions.

Glow-in-the-Dark vs Reflective — What’s the Difference?

It is easy to assume that reflective and glow-in-the-dark materials are the same thing, but there is an important difference in the way they work.

Reflective material does not produce or store light. Instead, it becomes highly visible when light from another source — such as a torch, vehicle headlights or other illumination — strikes the material and is reflected back towards the viewer. Remove the external light source and the reflective effect disappears.

Glow-in-the-dark material, also known as photoluminescent material, works differently. It absorbs energy while exposed to daylight or a suitable artificial light source. When moved into darkness, that stored energy is gradually released as a visible afterglow. This means the material can continue to glow even after the original light source has been removed.

The term “luminous” is also sometimes used to describe materials that appear to give off light. However, it is a broader term and does not explain the technology as precisely as photoluminescent or glow-in-the-dark.

How This Applies to the RECON GS2™ Devils Cat Eyes

The RECON GS2™ Tactical Glow-in-the-Dark Devils Cat Eyes are designed around the photoluminescent principle rather than relying simply on reflected light.

Expose the eyes to daylight or a suitable artificial light source and the photoluminescent sections absorb energy. When the surrounding environment becomes dark, the stored energy is released as an afterglow — creating the distinctive effect of the Devils Cat Eyes coming alive in the darkness.

The glow will naturally be strongest shortly after charging and will gradually become dimmer over time. The intensity and duration of the afterglow can vary according to the strength of the light source, the length of exposure and surrounding conditions.

In simple terms: reflective material needs light shining on it to be seen; these glow-in-the-dark cat eyes can continue glowing after the light source has been removed.

Ideal For

Tactical gear • Backpacks • Camping • Hiking • Outdoor activities • Night-time gear identification • Range bags • Equipment pouches • Morale patch collections

Please Note: Glow intensity and duration can vary depending on the strength and duration of the light exposure used to charge the material. These patches are photoluminescent and do not contain powered illumination.

FAQ

Do the Devils Cat Eyes actually glow in the dark?
Yes. The photoluminescent eye sections absorb available light and release it as a visible afterglow when moved into darkness.

Do they require batteries?
No. The glow-in-the-dark material requires no batteries or electrical power.

How do I get the strongest glow?
Expose the cat eyes to a bright natural or artificial light source before entering darkness. Generally, stronger light exposure produces a brighter initial afterglow.

Will they remain at maximum brightness all night?
No. Photoluminescent materials are brightest initially and gradually become dimmer as the stored light energy is released.

How are they attached?
They feature a Velcro-style hook backing for attachment to compatible loop panels.

What colours are available?
Heritage Brown, MultiCam, Midnight Black and Red.
