  • Patent number: 10175015
    Abstract: An apparatus known as a self-illuminating light-emitting firearm magazine indicator, or simply, light-emitting magazine indicator, (LEMI), is described here forth. The light-emitting firearm magazine indicator makes use of a self-illuminating device. The device and/or materials could comprise: radioactive gaseous isotopes, self-illuminating paint or any other substance that contains self-luminous properties. The light-emitting firearm magazine indicator will make use of any form of self-illumination technology that require no external power source or battery technology in order to give off light emissions. The light-emitting firearm magazine indicator will use the properties of radio-luminescence as a primary, but not exclusive source to create such attributes.
