Gallium - Where the heck do you buy it?

I finally got some Gallium after many requests from viewers. I wanted to share my experience in my purchase from GalliumSource. It couldn't have been smoother. Not only do they accept credit cards, but also Paypal, which always makes buying stuff online easier for me.
I received the package in just a few days. The packaging was professional and secure. I couldn't be more pleased with the purchase. I am pretty picky about stuff like this and if the purchase wasn't good, I'd never disclose where I got it. (ie. a Vat.19 purchase)

I will be doing some demonstrations with Gallium in the near future.

Check out GalliumSource for more details:

I finally got some Gallium,  dag nab it

Sweet! glad you made a vid too. Today was an amazing day for new videos from firearms channels.... Now I'm sitting here sad... Lonely and crying that we aren't a part of the "youtube channel" dinner at shot show.

Excellent caution against the use of glass containers when storing Gallium. Especially since many of us have a lot of glass in our experiment equipment.

Alright!!! I've wanted some gallium since high school so I'm glad you found a reliable sight that has it.

With the music this seems like a scene from a science fiction movie, a protagonist holding a vile of a mythical valuable substance which could save humanity

[mertgunes]

Nice that you give credit to all sources, even the music

A gallium slug out of the old 12 gauge?  (make it recoverable for sure!)

I miss Nurdrage videos. Maybe someday a new video will pop up in the subscription feed.

thanks for putting the link to the site in your description now i know where to go and buy it.

Gallium would probably melt if shot. The extreme heat + high pressure would most likely deform the bullet and most likely turn into little pellets.Keep in mind, Gallium melts in a persons hand

[gearsNtools]

very interesting metal!  are there any uses for it in manufacturing or is it just unique without any real commercial use? 

[legendBrett]

R.I.P. NurdRage, I miss that channel.

Nice video Geoff/Jeff (correct me if they are wrong).
Just wanted to ask, is that stuff safe to handle?
Anyway. I can't wait to see videos of you using this stuff.

[NefariousElasticity]

How dangerous is Gallium to handle bare-handed? I've seen some people handle it bare-handed (like you did at the end of the video), but I've heard other sources say you should only handle it with gloves on.

i bought 40g of pure 99.99% gallium on ebay for $21 and its rather good gallium. its pretty pure because i can make crystals from it.

Gallium has to be packaged like that if it goes on aircraft, it is subject to 49 CFR 173.162 - GALLIUM. legal requirements for packaging.
Many aircraft are made of aluminium.. which gallium would react with and weaken substantially.. it could potentially bring down a plane if it got onto control linkages etc.

[jzapien]

This stuff is cool because it isn't really harmful and a cool material to mess with if you get board at work or something.

[NubbyTV]

Very interesting. So glad I subbed to you're channel. Thankyou for taking the time to film& post this.id never even heard of gallium. It looks like solder.

[TheChelas]

Idea for a video. Add a little gallium + aluminium + water inside a balloon. Lets see how much hydrogen is produced. Then add fire. It should make for a nice ball of fire.

Any plans to get some galinstan?  I believe galinstan actually has a lower melting point than mercury.
