UV light choices

[edpmis02]

Looking for UV light mostly for cleaning up after a senior with "hygiene" issues

like to take advantage of a Cyber-Monday discount.

Ultrafire:

• Model: UV-B19
• Flashlight Bulb Type: CREE XR-E
• Battery Type: 2 x CR123A (not included)
• LEDs: 1 x 3-Watt Ultra Violet UV CREE

or

INOVA X5 UV

• 365-400 nanometer wavelength

I would choose the Inova from the two you mentioned , but take a look at Tank007 flashlights , they are true 365nm and very good build quality,

Features of TK-566:
Made by High Quality 6061T CNC aluminum
Japan UV ship with lifespan 20,000hrs
UV 365nm wavelength, 1w output
Operation voltage range 0.8v-3.0v (runtime 3.5hrs)
Powered by 1x 1.2v/1.5v AA (not included)
Tactical click switch with GITD cap
Premium type III hard-anodized anti-abrasive finish
Vacuum coated aluminum optical reflector
Toughened ultra clear glass lens with AR coating
Waterproof to IPX-8 Standard, Impact resistant 1.2meters
Size 9.7cm x 2.1cm
Weight 47.8g
Optional AA Extender for extra runtime

They are around 45 dollar shipped , also Arc AAA UV is a very good and sturdy light , USA made but it's not so powerfull , for close up work it's perfect.

Good luck with your choice.

I have the Inova. It is advertised as having a 365-400 nanometer wavelength, but I believe it is really 395 nm. It's a great light, never the less.
