Hi all,
I appear to have more tritium than I do fobs, so I started experimenting with putting them on light switch covers. The one I've done so far I simply dremeled out a bed for the vial to fit, and then glued it in. It's pretty rough, and it's vulnerable if someone with a heavy ring were to smash the glass.
So it got me thinking - I remember some kits a while back to turn GID fobs into tritium capsules by filling the capsule with Norland 61. This would protect the tritium, and give it more of a permanent place in the light switch. I can't for the life of me find those kits anymore - only sites that sell the pre-made item, tritium included. I already have the tritium, now I'm just looking for a decent container to put it in. Anyone have any ideas?
Here's prototype #1:
