Interesting comments about Glowrings

[Graham]

The Register, a UK based online technical news site, recently started selling Glowrings, and it would appear that their US readers were annoyed about their inability to get them. So they have put up this article, to give some further information on them..

Quite informative...

And here's an update (with a slight correction)

Don't worry, when Traser becomes a multi-billion dollar international company the NRC will bend over to get them any changes in regulation they need. And more than that they will pay them for the privilege of burying traser waste here in America...

Until then, we just have to wait.

Why not just put the tubes into a clip-on gun sight. The gun sight could be just a round clip for attaching to a shotgun barrel. Then, the glass vial could be very loosely attached (and easily removable.

Then, sell keychains with a place to add the glass vial, and a small tube of glue to hold it in place.

Nice try Harrkev. The gunsight vials are tiny and I mean small. It would be difficult to justify a super large tube as a sight.
But I like the way you think.

Even better: Tritium vials are allowed in watches. So sell a very cheap watch with one embedded in the face or crystal, yet easy to remove. Add an empty keyring to the packge as a "crystal clear keyring" bonus. User removes vial from watch, places in keyring, discards $1 watch.

When I did some websurfing I noticed in England lots of fishing stores sell small rubber clipons for fishing rods with a small slit down one side for the user to insert a traser tube for night fishing.

This suggests that the bare tubes should be available somewhere.
