Two successful GB threads and still going. This stuff is great fun at a bargain price.

Strontium Aluminate - 100 grams - 300 mesh powder - Rounded to £10 to include postage and better packaging.

10 lots of 100g ish in each batch for those who want to make their own everlasting nightlight, camp marker, gear marker etc., GITD Epoxy knife handles, endless possibilities.

Lasts waaaaaay longer than Zinc Sulfide, 12 hours at least. Much brighter, lasts forever and non-toxic. Most effective when the rod photo-receptor cells in your eyes are activated for night vision. Should be effective as a tent, shelter, hammock nightlight.

A bit of practical fun to try out and way cheaper than normal. 1/5th of the normal price!

BACS or Paypal if you cover fees. Lead time will be better this time, 2 weeks perhaps.

Endless things you can do with it including add it to paint or make your own glow in the dark moldable Oogoo (Sugru) for your kit. On second thoughts, I'm not sure it works in Silicone due to the acid content but it works great in Epoxy. It seems this can be used with hot melt glue as well, even better.

This can be used in epoxy, varnish, latex, resin, vinyls, plastics etc., the 300 mesh powder is particularly good for this.

The boffins conservatively estimate this stuff will last more than 20 years others claim 170 years+, it doesn't wear out. This stuff even gets mixed into concrete to make the pavement glow!

This looks like a nifty idea, glow in the dark knife handles!

If your eyes are allowed to adjust to the dark then it is claimed its afterglow will last all night.
Good spec on this stuff, intensity at charge >10k mcd/m2, after 5mins >1k mcd/m2, after 30mins >200 mcd/m2 and levels off after one hour to about 100 mcd/m2.

I have discovered that you can get Glow In The Dark High Melt Adhesive GITD HMA.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/25-x-Glow-...item23128ac7a9

I doubt these would have much glow powder in them but you could make your own GITD HMA.

I should imagine that you can easily and gently melt clear glue sticks down in a can or pan etc, mix in the glow powder and then mould to your desired shape. You can get HMA that cures to give it greater temperature resistance if needed once it has been moulded.

You could make your own:
