WHAT IS TRITIUM ? TRITIUM OR HYDROGEN-3 IS A RARE AND RADIOACTIVE ISOTOPE OF HYDROGEN. THE NUCLEUS OF TRITIUM CONTAINS ONE PROTON AND TWO NEUTRONS, WHEREAS THE NUCLEUS OF THE COMMON ISOTOPE HYDROGEN-1 CONTAINS JUST ONE PROTON, AND THAT OF HYDROGEN-2 CONTAINS ONE PROTON AND ONE NEUTRON.

Get the same long lasting glow as our other fobs but in a featherweight format at an unbeatable price.

Like its metal cousins, the Ember can be connected to your keychain, or any zipper on your range bag, backpack, sleeping bag, or tent.

Tritium is self-powered and self-reliant, just like you. It doesn't require an outside charge and has a half-life of 12.23 years.

Buy for yourself and your family & friends around you.

Q: Is Tritium dangerous?
A: No.
Tritium is unable to diffuse through these glass vials. Further, since Tritium is a low energy beta emitter, even if a tritium vial was broken, it is NOT dangerous externally (its beta particles are unable to penetrate human skin)
Tritium vials can be found in a wide range of common consumer goods such as watches, compasses, keychains, submarines, airplanes, gun sights, and tritium exit signs. 
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) regulates the use and distribution of self-illuminated tritium devices. Only companies with approved distribution licenses are legally allowed to build and distribute these tritium products. Glow Rhino works with a licensed partner with almost 30 years of experience working with tritium to legally illuminate its approved products.

Q: How long does Tritium last?
A: Tritium is self-powered, there is no need for batteries or an outside charge.
 Tritium has a half-life of 12.23 years.
