Yeah, I guess that would be just a tad impractical, wouldn't it? Thanks for the info John.
Apparently it is available in Switzerland from
: the following manufacturer. I'm not sure if
: it is imported by any US distributors,
: though. Keep one thing in mind.
: SuperLuminova needs to be
: "recharged" by a light source
: (artificial or natural sunlight) in order to
: maintain its luminosity. Tritium does not.
: So, unless you want to stick your gun's
: sights under a lamp every day or walk around
: pointing it at the sun (might make the
: neighbors call the cops on you), you're
: better off sticking with tritium. If you
: don't believe me, try sticking your watch in
: a dark closet for a day or so. You'll find
: the luminosity of your watch's markers to be
: all but gone.
: "Because of the humidity sensibility of
: Super-LumiNovaŽ pigments we supply them in
: hermetically tight plastic bottle and which
: we recommend for subsequent storage in dry
: environment. The storage temperature is of
: minor importance since these pigments are
: inert to temperature influence."
