Just received my first Reylight- Pineapple mini. Cool little tool but now I need a trit to put in the button. Where in the world do I order this?
https://mixglo.com might be the most common supplier. Prepare for unbelievably slow shipping though.
Most seem to use UV cure optical adhesive to fix the tritium tube. I bought a bottle of cheap UV cure resin off eBay for glow in the dark powder, it cures clear and has a nice glossy finish. You only need a tiny amount.
I’ve heard of people using superglue, also. For me, the ability to get the thing all set-up nicely, then hit it with some UV to cure it, beats the mess of superglue going off at some unknown rate (I’ve never had much luck with cyanoacrylate).
If you want to EDC without worries, don’t hold a alpha-capable Geiger counter near the tritium tube… ![]()
Many thanks for the responses!

Norland NOA61 is the recommended adhesive for trits.
