Frequently Asked Questions
How does the Ember Glow Dot technology work, and why is it better than standard tritium sights?
Ember Glow Dot is a proprietary XS Sights technology that surrounds the front tritium lamp with a phosphorescent material. It continuously absorbs ambient light during the day and glows on its own in low-light environments. At the same time, the tritium lamp itself charges the Ember dot from within — meaning the front sight is always brighter than the rear tritium dots, naturally drawing your eye to the front sight and keeping your focus downrange where it belongs. Standard tritium sights offer equal brightness front and rear, which can slow target acquisition in critical moments.
Will these sights fit both the Taurus G2 and the G2C or G2S?
These R3D sights are specifically designed to fit the Taurus G2 platform. Compatibility with the G2C or G2S may vary depending on the slide dimensions of your specific variant. We recommend verifying fitment against XS Sights' official compatibility chart or contacting our team at Goodland Guns before purchasing to ensure these sights are the correct drop-in fit for your exact pistol model.
Do tritium night sights require batteries or charging, and how long do they last?
Tritium is a naturally radioactive gas that produces light on its own — no batteries, solar charging, or external power source is ever needed. The tritium vials in XS R3D sights have a typical half-life of approximately 12 years, meaning they will remain functionally bright for well over a decade of everyday carry use. The Ember Glow Dot layer provides additional brightness during that time, so your sight picture stays vivid and fast throughout the life of the sights.
