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,

Re: Anyone know what this is and if it\'s available?
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.

Is Tritium considered LED? I don't think this thing has any LEDs in it. I didn't know what section to post this in. Sorry.

Got the address, thanks.
The Glowrings are not LED's but do fit in this forum as Electroluminescent.

Glowrings are best in this forum section.
I love glowrings. I had 100 at one stage. I've got about 15 left for my own personal use. I gave most of them away, and my brother has sold a few to his friends.
I like the purple ones for colour, but the greens are brightest.

Official Traser UK site: http://traser.com
Frug are a great lot, I got mine from there.
Another good dealer is http://adventurekit.co.uk
Sorry, no overseas-shipping sites. As pointed out, they are not legal to import to many places.

I have often wondered why folks refer to purple trasers. As far as I know, there are no purple ones. There are some that emit an attractive deep blue, but it sure isn`t purple.
Maybe my eyes aren`t calibrated correctly?

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.

Tritium is Radioactive and emits Gamma Rays among other things. This is why they are banned in USA. This is not the same as Tritium night sights (3 Tritium dots on gunsights). Tritium Night Sights are safer (whole lot less Tritium).
