They didn't see the bulbs in their catalog, but gave me a phone # and web address.</p> <p>(800) 555-0050<br /> <a href="http://www.nam.lighting.philips.com">www.nam.lighting.philips.com</a> (select eCatalog, then special lighting)</p> <p>Other things I've learned:<br /> UV-A 320-400nm (Blacklights are UVA)<br /> UV-B 260-320nm<br /> UV-C 200-260nm (Used for disinfecting / sterilizing)<br /> x-rays < 200nm</p> <p>=======<br /> Repeated from other thread:<br /> Blacklights are normally used for low volume doming. 15-25 min cure time. (There are other formulas that cure in seconds with high intensity lights that cover the spectrum from A to C. - Dangerous)<br /> Home depot sells blacklights in 18" and 24"<br /> Spencer Gifts sells various blacklights including screw-in compact fluorescent for $5.</p> <hr /><h4><a href="lthread_list.php?webtag=EE">Back to thread list</a> | <a href="llogout.php?webtag=EE">Login</a></h4> <h6>© 2025 <a href="http://www.beehiveforum.net/" target="_blank">Project Beehive Forum</a></h6> </body>
