A Glowglobe is a suspensor-buoyed illuminating device. They are self-powered (usually by organic batteries) and usually emit pale yellow light, but can be tuned to a low orange colour. Glowglobes are portable and can follow a person around, or be caged or anchored in a specific location.

The exact workings of glowglobes are not elaborated on, but they can be extinguished with a touch.
