TEC-S323 Isotope Fob, a Stainless Steel housing for tritium vials - by TEC Accessories : desertcart.in: Fashion Review: This tiny little keyfob is well made and very durable. It does an excellent job protecting the vial held inside it. I'm pretty rough with my keys, tossing them on tables, dropping them, swinging them around in my hand--even though all that, this fob protects the vial inside just fine. And it looks nice to boot. This fob takes a 3mm x 22.5mm vial, and the fit is perfect. Note that the fob comes with two rubber pads plus a keyring. The two rubber pads do not mean you get one extra! Use both by placing one in the bottom of the fob before you insert your vial, then use either the vial itself or something like a coffee stirring rod to push the rubber piece down. Insert your fob, then squeeze in the second rubber pad and push it down. There will be enough clearance between the keyring hole and the top of the rubber pad for the keyring to go in on top of the pad, keeping everything in place unless you remove the keyring. If you need to remove anything, you'll need to remove the ring, then use a very fine tool to push up from the bottom on the bottom rubber pad. This will force all the bits up and out. 12/30/2015 Edit: 6 months and still good as new. Durable little thing. Review: Very solid little fob. Seems to be very well crafted.

Fit and finish are fantastic. Holds a 3x22.5mm vial perfectly. Mine also shipped with two rings and three small rubber plugs to ensure the vial does not float freely back and forth within the fob. I only needed to use one of the rubber plugs (and one ring, obviously), but I am a big fan of vendors who provide extra components. I have dropped my keys and the vial has been fine. I also don't see how the fob would flex very easily, but granted, it's not a solid cylinder wall due to the cutouts, so I suppose with force it would flex. I just don't subject my keys to that much abuse. ;) In general, I am extremely satisfied with every aspect of this product except its price. $19.99 seems to be the point beyond which this seems fairly pricey, especially when one considers you also need to drop $20 on a vial. Oh well, you can pay less for lesser quality. I decided not to cheap out. BTW, with regards to the vials, green is definitely the brightest, but don't believe claims of "daylight bright". Not given the size of the vial. I have purchased green vials from multiple sources and their brightness is all about the same, which is a pleasant glow in darker lighting conditions.

Measuring the radioactivity output of this fob results in about 1.3µSv/h, which is a good 13x or more of background radiation here where I am (in eastern Canada.). This easily penetrates multiple layers of clothing. Tritium radiates beta radiation—NOT alpha. Therefore, it requires significant shielding to make it biologically safe. I had assumed there was an internal shield of some kind of plastic in the fob based on photographs of same but.. Yeah no. There isn't. Therefore, any significant jarring or incursion of anything hard (like say steel keys) of any sort will break the tritium vial within this fob and the tritium gas is *technically* hazmat-response kind of thing. I was really hoping TEC's professionalism implied the fob is safe. I'm pretty sure it isn't. But darn it. It's so pretty.
