As dumb as this is going to sound, I'm pretty sure our lume sellers can set you up?
If not. https://www.ebay.ca/b/Superluminova-In- ... 7022262526

I may well be missing something

I used "Noctilumina" kits. Damn Powerful Stuff.

Image

This is the B17F pigment.

I have the G15F Pigment as well (Green Glow) and it glows even brighter.

But this Blue is almost White when not-lit and it glows really well....

And you can get a double-kit for $65ish vs. paying $100 for Superluminova for one color in half the amount.

Is the glow time comparable to c3?

You know what? I'm not sure.

Let me do a test. I will setup my phone for a Hyperlapse and will video my Zerograph and my Seiko MarineMaster 300M.

C3 (green) is normally brighter than *BGW9 (blue) initially but they are visible for almost identical durations (according to Superluminova charts/etc)

I'll post up my results.

*Edited I meant BGW9 not C1.... C1 is old. BGW9 is newer.. They glow white though.

FYI I meant "BGW9" instead of C1. C1 was the old "White/Blue" lume. BGw9 is the Newer version, and I think the Noctilumina is on par.

as you can see, C3 vs BGW9 is close. These are the "Brightness" values 30 minutes after exposure.

I will not be using a "Pitch Black" room. I will be using a dimly Lit Room. FYI

OK!

As promised, I did a "Timelapse" but my camera on my phone started to "Black and white" the lume as it went more and more dim.

I can tell you this. BOTH My ZeroGraph and my Seiko MM300 were visible on my nightstand when I woke up at 5:30am this morning.

Anyway, terrible photos and videos to follow.


EDIT:

Well, never mind. The photos and videos suck. I will need to do something different.

Sorry.
