NiTE Tritium Glowrings
« on: November 10, 2006, 02:12:40 am »
Anyone here, besides Colubrid ;) have these?  I just ordered a 3 pack and can't wait to get them.

I have some meprolight sights on my Glock26 and love them.  These keychains should look pretty neat in the dark I am guessing :)

They look cool. Do you already know what you will be clipping them to?

I dunno yet either. I'm trying to decide whether to buy one, or a three-pack.   :)

It was $41.45 for the three pack to be sent with registered airmail.  He also lets you choose your colors I beleive, you don't need to get one of each color.  I thought it was cheaper in the long run to just get 3 now instead of getting the one and wishing I ordered more.

I received my Glowrings in the mail today.  Keeping in mind that these are NOT the snap type glow-in-the-dark glowsticks, I was impressed with the brightness of the green colored one.  While none of them glow more than a 5-6 inch radius I felt the green one was the most visible, followed by the pink/red and then lastly the blue.  My 5 year old daughters eyes rated them green, blue then pink/red.  Considering the availablilty of these in the US, along with the price, I am satisfied with my purchase and now have a nifty gadget to peak others curiosity with on my keychain...Just my two cents worth  :)

Yes, I contacted him through his email address on this page: http://edcforums.com/index.php?topic=1195.0    (mailto:desertmn@singnet.com.sg)  and requested a paypal invoice to be sent to me for three of the glowrings.  He replied within the day with an email confirming what I wanted to order then followed it up with the paypal stuff.  Took about 12 days to get mine, Singapore to Michigan.
The only website I have seen him on is the aforementioned and also Candlepower forums here: http://candlepowerforums.com/vb/showthread.php?p=1486246#post1486246  This link is for some D.I.Y. Glowrings

I am not positive but he did mention something about buying on ebay and I think this is one of his auctions: http://cgi.ebay.com/3-Pack-NiTE-Tritium-Glowring-WorldWide-Shipping_W0QQitemZ320048323453QQihZ011QQcategoryZ20589QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Well, I got a new camera and wanted to try it out.  Since I haven't found a use for two of my Nite Glowrings I decided that they wanted to be photographed :)
