Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is a 395nm UV flashlight used for?
A: A 395nm UV flashlight emits ultraviolet light at 395 nanometres, which causes fluorescent materials to glow visibly. Common uses include detecting pet stains and residues on surfaces, verifying currency and document security markings, revealing fluorescent inks or powders, and general UV inspection tasks around the home or outdoors.
Q: What batteries does this UV torch require?
A: This UV flashlight runs on 2× AAA batteries (not included). It features a wide working voltage range to maximise battery life. Always remove the batteries when storing the torch for long periods to prevent leakage.
Q: Is this UV flashlight waterproof?
A: Yes — this torch features a waterproof construction, making it suitable for use in rain, snow, and damp outdoor environments. It's a great choice for camping, hiking, or any situation where weather resistance matters.
Q: Does the flashlight have adjustable brightness?
A: Yes. The rear-mounted tail switch cycles through three brightness modes: High, Middle, and Low. This lets you conserve battery life or increase output depending on your specific task.
Q: Is the UV light safe to use around pets?
A: The UV light itself is safe for general use around pets and in the home environment. However, avoid shining the light directly into eyes — human or animal — as direct UV exposure can cause discomfort. The torch is particularly handy for locating pet stains on floors and upholstery that are invisible under normal lighting.
