The seller tells me these are 390 nm. <http://cgi.ebay.com/32-UV-LED-Retrofit-Bulb-4-Your-Flashlight_W0QQitemZ8734642993QQcategoryZ16037QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem>
Has anyone had any experience with them? I have not found any reviews on-line.
TIA,

The seller has a good rep. At 390 nm it's as much purple as it is UV.

Thanks Ken! I would prefer something around 365-375. I have a Photon Micro-Lite UV which is advertised as 370. It will fluoresce a lot of items including the in(famous) $100 stripe. I procrastinated on buying a Night Cutter CSI5 until they got out of the flashlight business :-(( I am looking for something not quite as high end as one of Zenopus' lights.

I bought one of those and am "inspecting" it before I give it away as a Christmas present for my dad. It isn't as low of a wavelength as you might be looking for, but for someone (my dad) who just wants something with lots of bright uv to look for carpet stains and test how well different deer hunting clothes are able to not fluoresce--this is nice. It is a simple dropin most people can use, and its a pretty inexpensive source for 32 leds. I got mine for 25 USD shipped. It's cool
