About this item:
NITE TRITIUM GADGET KEYRING GLOWRING GLOW STICK.
If you have never seen these before, then get ready for something a bit different.
The Nite GlowRing is the ultimate glow-in-the-dark keyring and the last word in ‘must have’ gadgets for the outdoor enthusiast.
This self illuminating safety device has been originally designed for marking equipment and personal property that may need to be found in the event of an emergency during the hours of darkness.
Made from durable polycarbonate available in three vibrant colours, the GlowRing will glow for over 10 years and is the ultimate accessory for Geocachers.
Can be sumerged underwater up to a depth of 30m.
Glowrings are laser sealed borosilicate glass vials which are internally coated with phosphor injected with gaseous tritium (this is the radioactive stuff) which reacts with the phosphor to create a cold energy which produces a low level light source with no filaments or heat dissipation and no risk of fire or explosion.
They are unaffected by water, oil and most corrosive materials and require no external power source or exposure to light, remaining fail-safe and maintenance free with a lifetime in excess of 10 to 20 years.
This item contains Radioactive H3 substance (a minute amount of phosphorous tritium contained in a unbreakable polycarbonate casing) but is perfectly harmless and in no way a danger to anyone!
