Ok! Shocking that I missed that! I am very very aware of Static Discharge. Just not the acronym. I thought ESD was something I only had to worry about if I experienced it for more than 4 hours! lol.
.....At the tail end, the V2 trit is thinner than the V1 trit. It is also a little longer. They both work.....
Nice shots, now which is which?
The one on the left in the top picture and in the bottom picture is the V1.
Actually, if you wanted a bright trit, then unfortunately by selecting blue, you did indeed draw the short straw in terms of perceived brightness because blue and purple are the dimmest tritiums.
Green is by far the brightest.
You can see this in the chart neco shows in post #112

I guess that spreading the same lumens over a slightly bigger area makes it seem dimmer and warmer. The pictures don't accurately reflect what I saw and perceived. The pictures exaggerate - the V1 does have a tighter hot spot than the V2, but my eyes don't perceive the big difference the pictures show. I like the V2 a lot and it is now in my pocket.
I updated my post with titles and an explanation.
I'm sorry I couldn't take better pictures. Taking pictures of light is hard and I don't have enough experience. Also, I got home from work late and... enough excuses. I rushed and the pictures are not great. I'll try again when I have more time and patience.
All the pictures were taken at 1/100. The tint of the V2 looks warmer. But it is the same emitter and the tints are the same.

I hope that someone with better skills can take pictures. I'll try again (and again) when I have more time.
I also hope that people who have received their V2 will chime in and confirm that the tint is beautiful white.
