S3 365nm UV Flashlight with 3 LEDs, Powerful Blacklight Flashlights for Pet Urine Detection, Resin Curing, Rocks, Scorpion

This may be "overkill" for some households if you only have urine problems from time to time: there are less expensive types available on Amazon. On the OTHER hand....this is a very solid and well made rechargeable black light. Structurally it is "heavy duty" with thick well finished metal construction. The large rechargeable battery promises long life, depending on use. Be sure to charge the battery fully with the charging unit before using. It's spring loaded and ensures the battery stays safely and firmly in the charger. FOR OUR household, this is an excellent unit upon first use. We have four dogs who are both inside and outside. Two are rescue dogs: an old male Shih-tzu and old Italian Greyhound. The former, as usual for most males, piddles on multiple areas and furniture feet daily (he is too old to "get fixed" according to the vet). The latter has a bladder problem and he "leaks" droplets daily all around the house. He was in a animal sanctuary for a year or two before we received him. SO......while we clean daily, we found out last night with first use of the light, that we missed a lot. Fortunately we use a spray that breaks down the urine, so the house doesn't smell, but we missed a lot over the past 2 months. We also live in a rural area, so it will be "fun" to see if there are any scorpions around: generally the wild birds like quail seem to keep them out of sight.

I'm going to reiterate what one reviewer said when she stated something like, "If you don't want to see it, don't get this flashlight!" Holy hell, this thing is POWERFUL. I'm still shaking my head and things it showed! I had bought another, average UV flashlight and didn't know what to expect from trying another that was supposed to be stronger, but MAN, was I shocked. It came with the battery already powered up, so right off the bat, I turned off my house lights inside and turned on the Lumenshooter and saw things I DID NOT WANT TO SEE. But... then I started thinking logically. These flashlights show every speck of dust, every speck of any substance that is not like what it's sitting on, so you have to adjust your expectations. For example, I had some work done in my powder room months ago, and with the Lumenshooter I saw footprints of where the construction workers obviously tracked some grout onto the floor tiles. So, the grout shows up and really can't be removed. It can be CLEANED, but it's going to be there until I get some sort of acid to remove it. Same with some caulk on the painted walls (my construction folks sucked). That's not a hygiene problem; it's just science (or whatever). So, if you're trying to find cat or dog pee, you have to know what you're looking for and understand that NOT EVERYTHING YOU SEE is cat or dog pee. Or human pee, for that matter. I mean, SOME of it might be, but good luck sorting it out. The best you can do is use this light for CLEANING UP WHAT YOU CAN but understand that things aren't always what they appear. Bottom line: It's a damn-good UV flashlight!

IT WORKS. easily detect dried cat urine on hardwoods and carpets. for whatever reason, it doesnt appear to work on Persian rugs. its solid, well made. we initially purchased a cheaper version, less than $10, and it did nothing at all.

Bought 2 of these for a trip to MI upper peninsula and yooperlite hunting. I also used to find small dog pee spots. Works excellent for that and makes my current yooperlites glow!

Very bright - especially for short wavelength. The reduced visible light makes it very usable - don't waste your money on 395nm lights. My only criticism, for which I deducted a star, is that I wish the battery could be charged inside the unit. (It comes with a separate charger.)

This was such a fun purchase! I wowed my college botany students by shining this on a solution of crushed spinach and alcohol to show them how free chlorophyll molecules fluoresce and glow neon red under UV light. And of course, it’s great for finding yooperlights on the beach! Or simply going on a night hike in the woods. I would recommend anyone who’s into nature buy a UV flashlight—there are so many organisms that glow under UV!

I love the rechargeable battery! The light is compact, shines bright and illuminates everything! I made the mistake of shining it around my sink and bathroom and now I'm cleaning everything with extra effort!

Works as it should! Found some sodalites with it.

I did get this for another purpose BUT I’ve been using it on my nails to cure them with the LEad gel and the time is cut in half because the strength is a lot stronger. I gave my other LED lamp to a friend and just use this when needed.

Works as well as I hoped. Finds all sorts is gross stuff in the house. Bright enough to use outside at night.

Works realy well. Very bright.

Powerful blacklight torch shows up stains and particles but is a bit hard on your eye's without the required tinted safety glasses.
