Anyone got a tracer unit I can take apart? :)[/list]


It wont work.

The TM tracer units use a very high intense light bulb to light the BB, and Infa lights do not give the BB's enough charge to it up. I don't know if a UV bulb will work on your night vision, but they light it up very well. (its what i use in my tracer HUTU.)

do you really think an infrared light on a glow in the dark bb will make the bb give off infrared light?
