Be bright

Be fun

Your Questions answered

Why buy? 


Because you want to shine a light on the world.  An iconic Light Cane is for you if you are fed up with your traditional drab stick. 


Or maybe you are looking for a feel-good present for someone feeling depressed or self-conscious over needing a walking aid.


So don’t be a stick in the mud (or, judging by our photo ... a stick in the sand!) as here is your chance to show the world that your lack of mobility does not mean a lack of sparkle. 


A Light Cane will make you smile and it will make others smile.

What’s new?


Light Canes combine originality with practicality. They are the only illuminated canes with an easy to use operating system hidden in the handle.


So what is wrong with batteries in the ferrule?


If you are unsteady on your feet, it is impractical having button batteries and switch in the rubber foot (ferrule). You have to balance to operate, plus it is unhygienic to pull it off.


However, why not make more practical use of the ferrule by using it to gain extra stability?

For little extra cost we can personalise your light cane with a flexyfoot sprung ferrule (illustrated).


Can it replace a trekking pole? 


No. These canes are not sprung and because the tubes are hollow, it makes them more suitable for urban use where the terrain is less rugged. 


More the Chelsea Tractor brigade than the jungle warrior! 


Thus, unlike our photo, they are not suitable for budding Darth Vaders wanting to do battle with a light sabre.

Can the batteries be powered in situ?


No. Our designer considered incorporating a USB power link, but it makes the handle untidy. 


Can the canes fold?


No, as this would be technically too difficult with wires running down the tube. Anyway, why would you want hide away such a fashion statement? 


The good news is that your LightCane will be cut to a length you specify, making it 100% personal to you. Kids and grandkids be warned!


REMEMBER  - When ordering, measure your current cane from top of handle to bottom of rubber base (ferrule).


Can I have multi-coloured lights?


Of course. But you are buying an elegant designer walking cane, not a candy floss stick! And yet we have to admit they do look nice - see video above, plus the one modelled by the lady in the green dress. Flashing lights are a step too far.


How far do the lights project?


The lights are not directional. The LED string is designed to draw attention to the user rather than light the way. Cyclists and drivers will certainly see you!


Can I buy on the High Street


No. We are a family business providing exclusive products; we do not even sell on Amazon as too impersonal. But we do sell worldwide, with the USA, Canada and India being our top markets.


Who buys them? 

People who like originality. So stick to your guns and treat yourself to an uplifting present, or just buy one for a friend needing a pick-me-up. Either way they are designed for those who love to be different and are not backward in coming forward.

Is my Light Cane reliable?


Come on – don’t give us stick! 


There is nothing not to work. All you need to ensure is that two AA charged batteries have been inserted into the holder with the positive (+) ends pointing outwards, as illustrated.
