that was what i did, just cut a ribbon from glow in the dark tape, about 3-4mm wide, kind of hard to get it straight inside the head, but you can do it with tweezers
! !
it’s SUPER bright, right next to the leds, it is probably making 2-5 lumens for a few sec after the light goes out
this is that same GITD tape from aliexpress i got about 5 months ago
still looking for things to do with it, it is still impressive
and i have a ring around the body of it too, but that doesn;t get charged by the LEDs so it is not as impressive or bright
it is just basic green glow in the dark tape from aliexpress
you can get 1/2 x about 20 feet for about $3
i cut the ribbon and stuck it inside the head
green is the brightest GITD color
it isn;t as blue as my pic shows, that is white balance from the camera being fooled i assume
No that was great, always good to have someone else’s input, especially the creator of the thing.
I do these for myself and maybe help everybody who’s interested in some way too :+1:
True.
I added a strip of the glow tape to the clip groove too.
@CRX — nice move on the thin GITD for the clip groove. I’m pretty happy with the top one. Also have a thin one on the body, but might take it off (looks a little busy).
I thought there would be enough space for the tape to go under the tailcap by about 3mm or so but the tape I have is just a little too thick, thinner tapes might do this.
