The Carclo triple in my Jaxman E2L was stuck so hard that I had to resort to pliers. Believe it or not I didn’t break the optic… So yeah, these things can be hard to remove.
One of mine wanted to stick, and I think it was caused by flux in places where it’s not supposed to be. So it may be a good idea to clean the MCPCB if you open it up… or at least check to see if it’s clean.
Thanks, I was looking for some time last night for some tritium bits, but that is the nearest thing I could find other than plain vials. Shame they don’t do different sizes…… to be honest I was trying to find disks (like thin marker dots) but with no luck.
As it goes they have some pretty funky stuff in their shop, some of that carbon material is lovely!
Nice find, thank you for that!
Grrr……. they don’t take Paypal :person_facepalming: a quick search using ‘tritium patch’ found one that does though, bit more expensive.
I also found these rectangular tritium tubes. They are quite pricey though!
