what are you doing with your tritium?

[jamesmtl514]

i see a lot of people are buyig trits, I'm very curious what everyone is doing with them.
I have some ideas, but I don't know how feasable they are. I'd like to see what you are doing with yours.
Pictures please

Pretty much on the lights like these.

I realize that they are going on lights, however with the amount sold not everyone can be putting them all on their lights.

I'm thinking of making a couple slots on my Sypderco Native to put some in. I was wondering what other people have affixed tritium to.

I glued 3 of the 11mm long ones equi-spaced on an GITD O ring, inside the head of my L1.
It's got a tiny Cree XRG R4 emitter so there's lots of room.
The green glow shines through the optic and the beam is not affected.
The output is bright to a dark adapted eye and I can find the L1 easy in the dark.
It makes a good light just great IMHO!

I was making these mokume and damascus beads with trits for eyes

I will make some more eventually

Those are really cool!

I set a large vial right next to my EDC on my nightstand, that way I can clearly see where the light is in the dark, but when I actually use/carry the light, I don't have to worry about damaging/breaking the tritium.

I hang mine off the doorknob so that I can see where it is in the middle of the night if I don't feel like killing my night vision.
