What is an LED/Light Up Latex Balloon?

Modified on Mon, 21 Apr at 3:07 PM

LED  or Light Up Latex Balloons come with a small LED light manufactured inside a balloon that can be inflated with air or helium. 


Not all manufacturers design LED balloons the same, so it is important to read the instructions provided in the packaging.


Qualatex suggests activating the LED light at the top of the balloon before inflating it. Note: Qualatex has been discontinued as of July 2024. 





Please Note:

  • LED lights do not produce heat and therefore will not burn or damage the balloon. 
  • Keep small children away from uninflated LED balloons. The LED light is small enough to be a choking hazard.
  •  LED lights can be purchased separately and inserted into the balloon manually, however, Bargain Balloons suggests using translucent balloons to attain maximum brightness.
  • If an LED light is too big, the balloon may not float straight and the balloon will slant. ,


Bargain Balloons no longer carries Qualatex LED/Light Up latex balloons. Shop for other LED alternatives using the link below.
