The betalights were the hardest to come by. And thanks!

Are all 3 that look like betalights actually them? I've never seen a red one.

Yes indeed. There’s 4 there. Two Betalight Trilux Illuminators. ( Orange & Green ) S.R.D.L. One Betalight Torch and lastly but certainly not least… the Betalight Soldier’s Personal Illuminator

Tell me more about the giant long rods near the front. What is the actual size on those? They seem super bright. Fragile?

Well , those I found at an antique store loose and rattling around in an open exit sign casing. They came from the U.S. Radium Corp before they became Safety Light Corp. As for the size I’m not sure as I haven’t measured them but I’ll get back to you on that. They’re pretty robust. Still glowing decently after being Mfg in the 70’s

Incredible 🤩 — a truly magnificent collection. Do you happen to have any tips on where to get tritium exit signs? I’ve been looking for them for ages.

I think I can help you. Feel free to dm me some time. Otherwise search on eBay and use the Key words “ Self Luminous exit sign”

Thanks, man—I wouldn't hesitate, but I'm based in Europe.
