The torch is made entirely of aeronautical aluminum with an anodized finish which makes this torch extremely robust, long-lasting, resistant to scratches, abrasions and bad weather.
very small keychain flashlight equipped with a UV LED useful for different scenarios and applications. It features an imported UV LED that produces a beam with a wavelength of 365nm. Thanks to the constant current circuit with which this lamp is equipped, it can be used continuously for 156 hours. The body is made entirely of aeronautical aluminum and is available for sale in different colors: blue, pink, titanium, bronze and black. This flashlight is powered by three LR44 model button cells. Its dimensions are only 3.18cm * 1.5cm and its waterproof is given by the ipx8 standard so it is submersible up to 2m deep. For the management of the interface there is no switch but just rotate the head clockwise to turn on the light and anticlockwise to turn it off. The maximum light intensity is 1572 uW/cm2 at a distance of 15 cm or 285 uW /cm2 at a distance of 38 cm. The diameter of the spot is 145 mm wide at a distance of 15 cm or it is 850 mm at a distance of 38 cm. Using this light is very simple.

UV lights as we have seen can be useful in everyday life for various reasons. One of the major producers of this type of light is Tank007 which, as we have seen, produces models of all types and for any type of requirement, even the most specific. We are used to seeing these lights used on TV in films where crime scenes are analyzed, in fact these lights allow us to detect biological traces and body fluids but their use actually involves many other applications. They are also used in industrial environments for checking machinery and pipes and for detecting oil leaks, but they are also effectively used as a germicide and disinfectant of surfaces and objects. They are also useful for analyzing counterfeit banknotes and documents. In short, UV light is very useful and we should all have such a product at home.
