I'm in on the Massdrop order for the new ReyLight Ti Lan and want to make this AA light the host for my first ever trit install. The 1.5x6 mm trits are on order and I plan on sourcing some Norland 61 in the next couple days. So, logistically speaking, the project is moving along.
My concern is with the actual installation. I've seen the instructional youtube videos where the trits are set in a slot and that all looks relatively simple. My issue is that I'd like to install these in the tailcap of the ReyLight. As the picture in the link below shows, the outer perimeter of the tailcap is comprised of three discs slightly spaced apart from one another, with holes for the trits bored through all three perpendicularly. I'd like to install a trit vial into each one of those six holes.

I've heard the Norland 61 described as both rather viscous and watery, depending upon the source. Never having worked with the stuff before, I was hoping the veteran modders here at CPF might have some advice on how to best go about the installation. I'd obviously like the tritium vials to be as protected as possible, without cheapening the look of the light by having adhesive smeared or running all over the place. TIA.
