Depends on how bright the light is.  The best things are the bright led lights, only takes a couple seconds.

UV Leds seem to work best. Fish will often tell you, sometimes they'll only hammer a fresh one, other times they'll wait for it to fade. Weird but it gets that way some times. Glow longevity depends on the paint quality

Do some testing bud...different lures different paint they do not all last the same...gonna have to do some testing of your own...I usually charge every time I bring it up.  Good luck

I use a Lure Lightning on my Jammin Jigs glow jigs, and a few seconds is all it takes.

i have this old camera, with no film in it, that i use.  just turn the flash on and take the picture with the flash right next to the jig.  works awsome!!!! as far as recharging it will depend on the lure so you will probably check every 5 mins or so until you get acustomed to that particular lure.

Never been happier with anything I have ordered. Very good quality, and very reasonable. Ordered 3 times, and all orders have arrived within a few days.

Different colors of glow last longer than others too!  I can't remember the order but it's prob somewhere on here if you do a search.

I received my order from jammin Jigs today and they are Awesome cant wait till Sunday to try them out. I did what fisHunter247 does, I got an old 35 mm camera with no film and that really charges them up fast!

Camera flashes are definitely the best. Instant recharge.

I have been hunting or fishing almost everyday of my life. The rest have been wasted.
