Where can tritium light sources be acquired?

Tritium lighting is made using glass tubes with a phosphor layer in them and tritium (a hydrogen isotope ) gas inside the tube. Such a tube is known as a gaseous tritium light source (GTLS) Because tritium in particular is an integral part of thermonuclear devices (though in quantities several thousand times larger than that in a keychain), devices containing tritium are considered dual-use technology in the U.S. A and are therefore illegal for export However, they are widely available in the U. K most of Europe (some countries like Belgium have outlawed them however) Asia and Australia Tritium devices can be purchased in the UK and Australia, but are illegal for import to the United States, however they are available in the US as gunsights and for military applications UK Source http://www.crazyaboutgadgets.com/detail.asp?ID=371 AU Source http://www.kitbag.com.au/prod849.htm USA Source (Military Personnel only) http://www.ameriglo.net/tactical_dev.htm You can also find tritium lighting in the US without having to be military personnel at http://www.unitednuclear.com.

They have a limited stock, though.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
