Tommy Posted June 21, 2021 Report Share Posted June 21, 2021 I'll take a shot..... Tri lite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William Posted June 21, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2021 That crossed my mind, not sure though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire1981 Posted June 21, 2021 Report Share Posted June 21, 2021 I would put that with my Superiors because of the Red/Yellow color combo. Elites have Blue filaments that run through the clear baseglass. FWIW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire1981 Posted June 21, 2021 Report Share Posted June 21, 2021 I might have Elites mixed up with Tri-Lites. We'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted June 21, 2021 Report Share Posted June 21, 2021 Elites and Superiors are both examples of Tri-Lites. Superiors need two red ribbons surrounding the yellow patch. The Brandstetters came up with that name. All I remember about the Elites is that they were colorful. I didn't know which if any colors were needed. @tankgrrl29 came up with that name. Both are discussed in this article, the Superiors in a more specific way.

Steph Posted June 21, 2021 Report Share Posted June 21, 2021 So, at a minimum William's marble is a Tri-Lite. What else it may be, I do not know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire1981 Posted June 21, 2021 Report Share Posted June 21, 2021 Cool ! Take your Tri-Lites and sort them into Elites and Superiours. Then bust out the Aqua Marines and Buttermiks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fire1981 Posted June 21, 2021 Report Share Posted June 21, 2021 He rocked it for sure! Good recall Steph. I think Joe and Randy Gosset kicked down some doors that helped ID Vitros. Randy is gone but I met him and he had Vitros loaded with green AV that were insane. Vitro’s Green AV when loaded is just as impressive as Pelt or Akro AV.

boris64 Posted June 21, 2021 Report Share Posted June 21, 2021 Fruit cocktail? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad G. Posted June 22, 2021 Report Share Posted June 22, 2021 Fruit cocktail is a Peltier name, it would have been a perfect name for this one though !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire1981 Posted June 22, 2021 Report Share Posted June 22, 2021 2X on the Pelt Fruit Cocktail. I have a few. Took me awhile to find a few. Does anyone have FC that are over 5/8ths ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Posted June 24, 2021 Report Share Posted June 24, 2021 This thread got a little confusing . . . to be sure, the OP is a Vitro Tri-Lite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
