I was watching CSI the other night and I noticed that they were using a UV flashlight in combination with some kind of red tinted goggles to look for the presence of blood or other bodily fluids. I happen to own a UV flashlight that I use for scorpion hunting and I was wondering if anyone knew what kind of filter it was that the guys were using on the show to help the bodily fluids floresce (sp?).
I have noticed that even without the filter goggles I can still detect bodily fluids that have dried. My carpet cleaner got a great workout after I got the light. But "fresh" fluids don't show up so well.
So anyone know what kind of filter that they use and where I can get one?
P.S.- Don't take a UV flashlight into a motel room unless you want to sleep in your car. Ignorance is bliss, TRUST ME!
