Nope never owned one, I think they look good though. Tofty used to do a lot of work with them, don't know if he still does. He brought a very cool one to show us at last years UK meet.

Here's his shapeways shop link https://www.shapeways.com/shops/tofty/

Edit: It looks like he still does and has some rather nice tritium items on there at a reasonable price. My poor wallet  :facepalm:

Wow that's some :drool: worthy stuff. But you still have to supply your own trits?  :think: :ahhh

I was thinking of getting some of these bare trits, if they're kosher.

But then I need to affix them to a keyring or my flashlight somehow.  :think:

I have a few trit fobs. I always keep one on my keychain and on a prominent zipper pull on my packs.

They aren't going to provide useful illumination, but they do serve to help you find something you dropped in the dark.
