Apparently other cobalt salts are less toxic, though I feel that this is more of a circumvention of recent EU regulations that specifically target Cobalt (II) chloride.</p>

To use it as a visual %rH monitor</p>
<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@whitequark" class="u-url mention">@<span>whitequark</span></a></span> lol I think your toot just nuked antistat.com off the internet. I think youโ€™re right though - the one <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://chaos.social/@janamarie" class="u-url mention">@<span>janamarie</span></a></span> posted is a lot less intense in color than the classic cobalt ones.</p>
