I recently did some research for a consulting client that I thought would benefit many SurvivalBlog readers. The client had asked for a source for reasonably-priced tritium vials. (In his case, he needed 2 mm x 8mm vials to “reanimate” a couple of 1960s-vintage Trilux scopes for L1A1 rifles. I’ll be doing the same, for my own Trilux.) Here is the source that I found: B@rt’s Tritium. They have an amazing selection of tritium vial shapes and colors. He said that he liked these so much, that he bought some extras to epoxy on to room light switch plates. (No more fumbling in the dark to find a light switch!)
