Re: Glow in the Dark Lid!
From Scottishbiker :"The photo-luminescent paint recharges after 30 minutes in daylight and will glow for 20 hours before it needs to be recharged."
I think that is a bit ambitious but still, it glows. |

I believe there are versions, like in watches, that use a radioactive element to energise the phosphor so it does not need to be exposed to light to "charge", but it's harmless. |

Re: Glow in the Dark Lid!
It's a subtance called Tritium, inside a phosphorescent compound coated vial. Very cool
