Broken Tritium on Orb Raw

Rob187 · May 26, 2006

Last night, I discovered to my great disappointment that the blue tritium insert on my Orb Raw had partly broken off and was missing. It was only in my pocket and wasn't subjected to any impact with keys or anything like that. A small part of the tritium is still glued in place but probably three quarters of it is gone.

Has anyone else had this problem?

Not sure what to say except "that sucks".

Ah, but would you have noticed if it was broken BEFORE you put it in your pocket ?? It's not under pressure or anything so it shouldn't break on its own. Perhaps your pocket banged against something ?

I agree, it sucks.

I can't say for sure if it was broken before I put it in my pocket. It still wasn't subjected to any impact that I am aware of.

Rob from Orb reckons they have had a few failures, like 3 in 1500 so it is a pretty rare event.

Oh well, I guess I just have to get another one.

Mine came broken on the first run of the Raws. Orb took care of it pronto!!!
