Looking for UV portable Light for experiments

Hi everybody!
I'm looking for a new light, an UV one. I want this light just for experiment, and was seeing the peak leds Cr123 7 leds, AA 5 leds, and the inova x5 Uv. i actualy have an X5t and a Peak aa 5 leds, and they both are great lights, but i want to know wich will be the best one. (sorry about a new "Best Light" post, but i don't seem to find too much information about UV Lights)
i want it to be portable, but bright (UV), Common batteries prefered, but i can take the 123's. any sugestions???

this one uses 7-385nm led's

(price is very good too)

inova and others use 400nm led's

385nm works much better-less visible emitted light.

night cutter has a 380nm model

I have the Inretech drop in module with, I think, 20 uv leds that fits a 3 cell M@g. I also have the Inova X5 UV. The size is amazingly different, beam patterns are different too. But I will say that I never carry the M@g anymore. The Inova is GREAT! Especially for it's size.

Does somebody have experience with peak leds??

peak uses 400nm uv led's

Inova X5 or X1 UV, Lots of happy customers!!!

I have the X5 UV on sale for $39.95 and the X1 is $24.95

I have a modded 2AA light with a luxeon UV LED, made by a CPF'er.

I fear accidentally blinding myself with it too much to have used it any. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

when did the luxeon led become available in uv ?

I put a 400nm led in a dorcy aaa led flashlight
it was very bright for what it was.

Whoops. Looks like I made a mistake, it is a regular LED but side-emitting. For some reason I recalled it being a luxeon.

ya I knew luxeons were not available in uv

I have been around here long enough to know better

any way the person who sells that 7 led 385nm uv light on ebay sells a 385nm single led photon style light for around 5 bucks. I am thinking about buying one for the led.
I want to put the led in a dorcy aaa led light.
