Magazine for light sticks

An apparatus comprising:

• a first body defining a chamber configured to contain a plurality of elongated light sticks, the first body defining an exit aperture communicating with the chamber and proximate to a light stick feeding position;
• a second body pivotable about the first body, the second body including an actuator movable between a rest position and an actuated position;
• an anvil configured for a light stick within the light stick feeding position to bend around;
• a pair of engagement arms;
• and
• wherein the pair of engagement arms are operable to flex the light stick occupying the light stick feeding position against the anvil of the first body to fracture an internal element, and wherein the light stick is ejected from the light stick feeding position by a single movement of the actuator to the actuated position.

An apparatus for dispensing light-sticks comprising:

• a first body defining a chamber configured to contain a stack of elongated light sticks, the first body defining an exit aperture communicating with the chamber and proximate to a light stick feeding position, the first body including an anvil for a light stick within the light stick feeding position to bend around;
• a second body pivotable about the first body, the second body comprising a movable actuator movable between a rest position and an actuated position;
• and
• wherein the movable actuator comprises a pair of engagement arms, wherein the pair of engagement arms are operable to flex a light stick occupying the light stick feeding position against the anvil to fracture an internal element, and wherein the internal element of the light stick is actuated by being fractured in response to movement of the movable actuator from the rest position to the actuated position.
