fancy LED, base button, $5

[chuck30mi]

I found this on www.cheaperthandirt.com. LED tritium light, 8 LEDs, tail push switch, 3 AAA batteries for $5. (3 for $15). Thought someone might be interested. The pic looks like a major brand but I can't be sure.

See this thread, which says they're backordered out the wazoo:

Oh, and it's not tritium, it's TITANIUM. The flashlight's made of metal, not gas. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif

FYI:
I suspect that "titanium" refers to the COLOR of the case, not the material it is constructed of.

 

[TrevorNasko]

no havent you heard- titanium has gone down in price- and i hear tritium is getting harder by the moment.

 

[chuck30mi]

You're probably right about the titanium color. But the print catalog says tritium. I just verified it.

Is that better than transparent aluminum? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grinser2.gif

 

[The_LED_Museum]

Didn't Scotty on one of the Star Trek movies offer an acrylic tank maker the "formula" for transparent aluminum?

 

[Zelandeth]

Yep. Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home. And the company in question was called Plexicorp.

Now I feel like a real geek...

That's where he picked up the computer mouse and talked into it as if it were a microphone, isn't it? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif
{in Scotty's voice} "Computer? Hello, computer?"
