Ultraviolet
These special-purpose Photon lights produce a powerful beam of
ultraviolet light which will activate fluorescent ink, strips &
fibers that are used as anti-counterfeiting measures in bank notes,
credit cards, casino chips, passports, checks, securities,
cryptographic papers, etc. These key-chain sized UV lights are also
great for checking fluorescent hand stamps at clubs, or curing
UV-sensitive glue. The UV Photon features the extended housing of the Covert
Photon I to protect your eyes from direct exposure to the UV light. Caution:
Intense UV light can cause eye damage if viewed directly. Keep away
from children.
Note:
Ultraviolet Photon Micro-Lights are a Special Order item,
usually shipping 3 to 4 days following your order. If

Purple
Purple
Photon lights work very well for fluorescence checking as well. The
purple lights are closer to what you might expect from a traditional
black light, with a deep purple color in addition to the invisible UV
light. For some uses, such as checking counterfeit money, we still
recommend the pure UV Photons as the visible purple light from the
Purple Photons can make it difficult to see the fluorescent strip in
American currency. For other uses, such as hunters following blood
trails (fresh blood fluoresces under UV light), the Purple Photon may
work better than the pure UV version.
