Who cares if it’s glow-in-the-dark paint. They’re not designed to be “night vision” sights. The fact hat they retain a glow for a half hour or so after sunset is a plus, IMO, not a detraction.

Needs to be tritium. That will cost more than $89.

Here’s a Self Luminous Exit Sign The glowing part is made of tritiated polyethylene plastic. I’ve always wanted to hack one of these apart and use the plastic for something. Although I’m willing to bet that the plastic isn’t as bright at one of those dots, Because it’s nice and big it might work out fine. I’d imagine you might be able to make a few sights out of one $169.00 sign.

tritium is a very weak beta emitter, I doubt if anything significant gets outside of the plastic that it is encased within.

Uhm… pass.

Unfortunately they still seem to be having production problems, as they sent out a notice at the end of last month stating that delivery had been pushed six or eight weeks further out. I responded “take the time you need to do it right!”

I don’t think they’ll object if I post this here…
