Tim Laing (who sold some 2040's to me) had some info on the radiation furor which he sent me with the tubes. Unfortunately, I'm on the road and don't have access to it right now. From memory there was an overblown article in a newspaper that cited the radiation from the 2040's as being a danger.

The real danger, here, is that these tubes - like many of the low voltage trigger tubes - will not work very much longer as the radiation sources decay and raises the trigger threshold.

I still really like them.
