I am confused, phosphorescent materials can’t last for hours but for minutes, on the other hand tritium can last hours in the watch industry but isn’t that type of material little bit radioactive?
Phosphorescent materials charge from particle of the light, when you put them in the dark room they last only couple minutes, so after few minutes phone will be looks the same.
Anyway I like the idea, but maybe they think different material
And if it’s tritium material like is used for watches Rolex, Omega, etc, it’s like 30usd per gram, there is reason why it’s always on small parts of the watch and not on bigger things.
Is it actually good idea to have phone which constantly glow? I mean you go to opera and you got phone which glow on green, you go sleep or walking in night with green glowing phone? At least phosphorescent materials last just minutes.
I would like to preffer idea, which design is not only recognized in the night.
- The phone is in the pocket most of the day so this phosphorescent material will never charge properly to glow in the dark
- Phone is on the table the whole day it will charge, but as sun will go down phone will be slowly start glowing during the evening but it will not have material energy to glow in the night.
- In the best case phone phosphorescent material will charge but it will last couple minutes
- If you use premium phosphorescent materials from watch industry tritium, it’s radioactive, and also 30usd per gram. This material can last hours.
I have seen like 10 really good ideas which would be absolutely phenomenal but I am not 100 percent sure, but it’s just my opinion.
But wish you all the best and luck, I actually love how phone looks in that mint green color. I would prefer just that mint color itself, very organic natural earthy color.
