Abstract: A luminescent element renewal system including an enclosure having a closed condition defining an inside space in which one or more light emitting elements have a location to proximally align with a corresponding one or more photoluminescent elements of a device received within said enclosure with the one or more light emitting elements operable in the closed condition of the enclosure to emit an amount of light to induce luminescence in the photoluminescent elements of the device.
Abstract: Disclosed herein are embodiments of a sighting device, and methods of making and using such a sighting device, whereby the sighting device comprises a chamber coupled to the sighting device; and a light-emitting element contained within the chamber; wherein the chamber contains only non-radioactive material; and wherein the light-emitting element emits a first amount of visible light to provide a viewable aiming indicium in low light conditions.
