Fire dancing has ancient roots, and even now, watching a fire dancing routine brings viewers back to a simpler time. However, spinning fire can be dangerous, especially for inexperienced twirlers. For someone looking to make a transition to fire twirling or looking to put on a flashy show without the risks fire brings, there are alternatives available. Battery-powered light batons can be great, but there’s always the risk of batteries dying at inopportune moments. That’s where the batteryless lighted Starlite comes in. Dangers of Fire Spinning No matter what technology we create or what methods we use to make fire safer, it’s inherently dangerous. The tiniest bit of excess fuel can go flying off a fire baton and onto nearby plants — or worse, audience members. Spinning a fire baton can be practiced safely, but it involves several steps and a great deal of training to make fire spinning safe. Inconvenience of Fire Batons When you use fire batons, there are several other types of equipment you need to buy, from fuels and specialized clothing to replacement parts. You also need to know the fire regulations where you’re spinning and find a fire-safe venue. If your goal is to become a fire performer, this can be a worthwhile venture. However, if you’re looking to put on a dazzling performance, you can do so just as easily with a lighted baton. Dealing with Battery-Powered Batons While batteries power a lot of our lives, there’s one problem with them: they eventually need to be charged or discarded. Whenever you take out a battery-powered baton for a show, you have to take a moment to consider whether the batteries have a charge. This could mean determining how many times it was used since the last battery change, when you last used it, etc. How the Starlight Baton Solves These Problems The Starlite Baton was a first for Star Line. We saw that the industry demanded an alternative to battery-powered lighted batons, and that’s when the idea for the Starlite came about. With this baton, you don’t have to worry about the dangers of fire or the problems batteries cause. It’s easy to operate and gives you more flexibility during performances. You can attach the lighted ends before a show or at the very moment when you’re looking to add light! The Starlite Baton is just one of many high-quality batons we offer. If you’re looking for a battery-powered light baton or a fire baton, we have those, too. Call us at 931-528-7829 or visit us online to learn more!
