All the time? After a certain amount of time?

Did you check the CBs? Looks like generator is out, and battery drained.

Can you please say, what exactly the problem is? It glows, yes. So does it in the Dora. You can dim it down with the control dial.

No it wont.

Tritium lighting was invented in the 1960s. What they had back in WWII was Radium paint (Radioluminescent paint).

The paint glows bacause of it's radioactivity.

 

But what the Germans and other nations used in some planes was UV lighting of the panel (Fluorescent paint). The paint will only glow when hit by UV light. That's why it's not glowing without elecrical power.
