Tritium markers =P Which colour looks better?Well, after a real fright with my applications where my latest backups of most of files vanished along with my hosting account and even worse, thanks to my dead RAID array or rather my dead motherboard, I'm finally back in business. I can't believe it. I made 4 backups with decreasing priority, and the 2 backups with the top priority just died on me at the same time. How unlucky can I be? I'll start updating on everything very soon.
Anyway, let me know on MSN which colour looks best. I'm rigging my really old Nokia 3310 (the one I'm bringing into the army) as you may know, and a tritium marker makes it imposingly nice in the dark. The tritium gas in the vial emits beta particles which in turn cause the phosphor inside to glow. Personally I think blue looks the best, also because it's the brightest (probably since there are comparable intensities from the phosphors - proportional to the decay constant of the tritium, hence the blue glow looks the brightest given its shortest wavelength).
