Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is a 395nm UV flashlight used for?
A: A 395nm ultraviolet (UV) flashlight is commonly used for detecting fluorescent substances on surfaces. Popular applications include checking the authenticity of currency and documents, finding pet stains on carpets and upholstery, spotting scorpions in the dark, inspecting gems and minerals for fluorescence, and general blacklight-based surface inspection.
Q: What is the difference between the 51 LED and 100 LED versions?
A: The 51 LED version is slightly larger in body size (~19.5 × 7.8 cm) and runs on 3 AA batteries, making it a great option for general use. The 100 LED version (~14.5 × 3.6 cm) is more compact in width but uses 6 AA batteries, providing broader UV coverage and intensity — ideal for more thorough inspections and professional use.
Q: Do batteries come included with the UV flashlight?
A: No, batteries are not included. The 51 LED model requires 3 × AA batteries, and the 100 LED model requires 6 × AA batteries. These are standard AA batteries available at most retail stores.
Q: Is the UV flashlight waterproof?
A: This UV flashlight is not rated as waterproof. It is designed for dry indoor and outdoor use. Avoid exposing it to rain, moisture, or submersion to ensure longevity.
Q: Is it safe to shine a UV flashlight on skin?
A: Extended direct exposure of UV light to unprotected skin or eyes should be avoided. When using any UV flashlight, avoid shining it directly into eyes and limit prolonged direct skin exposure. Refer to guidance from the CDC on UV radiation safety for best practices.
