UV Fluorescence checking with the world's smallest, brightest UV LED Flashlights. "Seriously the best UV lamp I have bought - amazing difference in fluorescence compared to the other ones of the market. A bit expensive, but clearly gives you what the others cannot." - Anonymous customer review via BizRate These special-purpose UV Photon lights produce a powerful beam of ultraviolet light, which will activate fluorescent ink, strips, & fibers that are used as anti-counterfeiting measures in bank notes, credit cards, casino chips, passports, checks, securities, cryptographic papers, etc. These key-chain sized UV lights are also great for checking fluorescent hand stamps at clubs, curing UV-sensitive glue and many other uses. The UV Photon features the extended housing of the Covert Photon I to protect your eyes from direct exposure to the UV light. The UV LED beam has a fairly narrow focus and unlike a traditional blacklight, most of the light produced by the UV Photon is just outside the visible spectrum (370 nm). In full darkness it will cause objects to fluoresce at distances of 20 feet or more. In bright daylight the effectiveness is greatly reduced, but is still usable at about 6-12 inches. For customers looking for a lower cost alternative, our purple Photon lights work very well for fluorescence checking as well. The purple lights are closer to what you might expect from a traditional black light, with a deep purple color in addition to the invisible UV light. For some uses, such as checking counterfeit money, we still recomend the pure UV Photons as the visible purple light from the Purple / Blacklight Photons can make it difficult to see the fluorescent strip in American currency. For other uses however, such as hunters following blood trails (blood tracking sprays are available which will cause fresh blood to fluoresce under UV light), the Purple Photon lights may work better than the pure UV version. Looking for a great accessory to show off the effects of your new UV Photon flashlight? Be sure to check out all of the collector's casino chips available at Key To A Win (all official casino chips incorporate some sort of UV-sensitive markings). Keytoawin offers keychains for their chips so you can easily attach it directly to your keys next to your UV Photon light. CAUTION: Intense UV light can cause eye damage if viewed directly. Keep away from children.
