Looks like a traser glow ring. Tritium gas encapsulated in borasilicate glass. See http://www.traser-uk.com/technical.htm

Not exactly legal in the US (per some NRC regulation), but I understand they are available. Someone was selling them on eBay recently.

I found them on the UK Ebay site and sent an e-mail to get some. They will make good stocking stuffers along with ARC AAA's

Heh...I was walking through my house this morning and all the lights were off...(I handen't thought to turn my flashlight on before I had full hands) so anyway I look down and see this glow coming from my pocket.

I freaked out for about .5 seconds and then remembered it was my tracer

Sometimes I will walk out of my bedroom in the night and see a Green glow floating about a meter off the floor. In that instant, I realize it a Glow ring in my wifes purse on a table. It also makes it easy to find where I drapped my pants what with the glow from the pocket.

I've got one in the bathroom sitting on the tank for those 3am trips when I don't want to turn on the lights. Gives me just enough light to stumble in and "aim". Last I heard e-bay has banned them from the auctions.
Stay Safe,

Ebay has banned them from auctions in the U.S. They are still on the UK Ebay. In any event, I got ahold of the vendor and he's selling them for $7 U.S. with $4 shipping for up to 6 glows.

Anyone have multiple colors have a favorite color? Why? And is green really that much more brighter?

Thanks.

Ah, that not the guy who got kicked off ebay. So Bev's going to give a better price then what is listed on the auction? Cool.

Hey Surefire M6. I got a postcard from the ebay guy two weeks ago with no price change from the old auctions. Is his name Jason?
TIA

Yes, Green is the brightest. My favs are Blue and Purple.

No, I got a message back from Bev. But there could be more people working there of course. The ebay auction is:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1857351190

I'm getting 2 of each color, this is a great idea.

The UK Ebay site is:
