I am considering buying an UV LED flashlight and would appreciate any recommendations anyone might have.
I need to keep the cost low as right now my hobby budget is somewhat limited and there are other purchases I might keep to keep some funds available for also.
(I'd like to keep the cost under $10 if possible, or at least under $15)
I would like one that is fairly good at causing things that are flourescent under UV light to really glow well.
While I would prefer one that uses C or D batteries, ones that use AA or AAA would be ok, I just dont want to have to mess with using those little button batteries.
(not only is it a fun hobby, but I can use it for practical purposes also, like checking for bacteria on surfaces that need disinfected as I heard that bacteria are supposed to glow under UV light)
Thanks in advance for any suggestions ! :thanks:
