Yep zip tie the little connectors on your rods and changing them out will be quick and easy

The bracelets come with little connectors on the tube. Take two connectors and tape one to the tip of your rod and the other one about 7-8 inches down. All of my rods have these connectors taped to them. They don't interfere with anything, so they are just on permanently. When you want to use a glow stick, it will slide right into the connectors. Very simple and hassle free. good idea! im tired of re-taping every single time!

I personaly don't use glow.sticks. o just use the bite alarm bells. They kinda suck in the wind as I'm finding out right now.

I use them everytime I night fish even if I'm using clickers. We've been using very small zip ties, make sure you cut them off with wire cutters though and not a knife

Welcome JChep- Nice first post! 
What has happed to you does not define who you are-
HOW you react to what happens to you DOES!
