Is it because the glow would fade after a year or two? Even if it’s not cost effective compared to adding to LEDs I thought it would be a novelty thing.

I did a quick search online and it doesn’t seem very common. Mostly keyboard covers.

    Wouldn’t the glow also fade over the course of a night? Brightness controlled LED’s seems to be the better more consistent solution.

      Of course on both accounts. I imagine it would gradually fade out over the course of around an hour or so.

      I mentioned it in my post and another comment but I thought it would have been an occasional novelty you would see online. Maybe in an weird Ali Express device.

        I know it fades. I’m not talking about bringing back the radium girls here.

        What do you think I am misunderstanding?
