Description

Ultraviolet LedA UV torch light emits ultraviolet radiation – a type of light energy – that is not visible to the human eye. When ultraviolet light hits certain objects, they can fluoresce – a phenomenon similar to a bright glow. Many objects and substances such as paints, dyes, minerals, animals and body fluids exhibit fluorescence, which means that the presence of these things can be detected only when a UV light source shines on them. Students can experiment in various ways with the  UV LED such as:

  • Forensics & counterfeit verification
  • Mineral & gemstone observation
  • Searching for insects and reptiles

 An excellent teaching aid for the classroom learning environment.Battery powered with 3x AAA batteries.Batteries not included.
