Tritium inserts

[fred0109]

I have been seeing more and more people using tritium vials as locators in their lights. I think that this is a really cool addition to lights, mods in particular.
My question is, where can I buy the small tritium vials as pictured in this flashlight made by "The Great McGizmo"?

Any info will be appreciated, as I would hate to have to crack open my Luminox for the tritium content. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif

By the way McGizmo, is this light for sale???

fred01089,

Those vials came from the small round button shapped "illuminated markers". They really do work well for finding the light in the dark. Sorry, this light is not for sale.

Don,

Where can you buy those markers?

Thanks,

wasabe64,

I got them from a real gent in the UK who will remain nameless. I think they have been posted in the B/S/T from time to time.

Wasabe, you can buy it from Merkava, if he still has it. Drom him a PM. Here is the link to the thread:

I've put those "Glow Disc" vials in crevices in a couple of my lights with a dab of crystal clear epoxy. They're not very bright but they do work okay in complete darkness when your eyes acclimate.
