Recent experiments on one-dimensional convection in binary fluids at moderate negative values of the separation ratio \ensuremath{\psi} have revealed the existence of a spatially localized ``stationary pulse'' of traveling waves whose spatial shape and length are fixed. In a long system, this pulse is destroyed slightly above onset by convectively amplified fluctuations. In a short system, however, these fluctuations are suppressed, allowing the observation of the unstable extension of the pulse state. Unlike the stationary pulse, this ``unstable pulse'' can have any length.
