Mine came from jlhawaii808.com

There is not

@LuxWad In general, with the flashlights the DO.. Is there any concerns about turbo use like you point out here? Or am I pretty much ok to use turbo and trust the flashlight to protect itself and me? As long as my hand can take the heat, it should be ok?

@Flashtricity-yf6lv Yeah you should be fine, the electronics are able to handle much more heat than your hand so it's rarely an issues unless you're wearing gloves or something. Active regulation will keep it in a range that's safe for the electronics themselves, even if you have a configurable light like Anduril they don't really let you set the limit too high. Just use your judgement when handling lights like this that don't have active protection and you will be fine

@@LuxWad Awesome, thank you for your time!

@@LuxWad My judgement is a little skewed though. I understand little to nothing about electricity and have misunderstood things many times to be "dangerous" when they may not be... Iused to completely avoid turbo for longer than 10 seconds on all my lights out of fear. Out of a misunderstanding of some info at some point. I'm still scared of mixing and matching cells and lights not knowing what the max CDR is of ony of my Wurkkos/Sofirns/Convoys "included cells". Not knowing whether or not any of them can power a hotrod Emisar... Edit: or what happens when they "cant"

Not yet, I just haven't gotten around to it yet unfortunately but I want to do a couple videos

@ they apparently are the gold standard :D shame they only deliver to the US

@@tomallo99 FWOD creator here. You can definitely find rocks and minerals that fluoresce laying around. These reactions aren't something that people can look for without a specific uv frequency as you stated. There have been incidences where it was turned into concrete! Just look up "fluorescent concrete franklin nj". It's also very fun to get a good deal at gem and mineral shows because the piece they're selling doesn't look pretty in white light but gorgeous under uv. Many times the dealer didn't even know!

Great seeing you here TK! I REALLY wanted to put Anduril on this. I even think I contacted you at one point for help. I tried 3 different manufacturers and none of them knew how to work with ATTINY chips. Even offered to have the firmware part written for them. They didn't have the equipment to flash it. Turns out Atmel isn't really used in China. They don't even have Chinese datasheets!

@@Raymond-Wu As is, I'm not sure I would have been able to help. Anduril would need major changes to work with 3 buttons, and I haven't been able to work much due to a broken spine. But it's really cool that you made a wide-spectrum UV light. It's like high CRI, but for the invisible spectrum. ❤

@@ToyKeeper Ah. Hope you have a smooth recovery! I don't remember who offhand but someone on BLF offered to refactor Anduril to work with 3 channels. I think wolfgirl if I remember correctly? Never got to use her help though unfortunately. Thanks for the compliments too! Feels great to cap a 3 year long project with a video like this 😀

Creator of the FWOD here. Haven't heard of people using a uv light to find fresher groceries. I know people do photograph plants under uv lights as they all fluoresce in different ways like the minerals showcased in the video. I'm not immediately sure if that'd be beneficial over visual inspection in white light. As for UVA safety, it's most of the uv light that makes it to the surface of the Earth, albeit a potentially stronger source as the flashlight focuses the beam. Still follow the safety tips in the video!

@Raymond-Wu Awesome, thanks so much for the info! I often feel like newbie safety is forgotten about all too often in the flashlight hobby. You're awesome for being willing to answer those questions here in the comments. With the plants, I've found that some like cilantro often will glow at different levels of intensity at the store. That allows (at least in my mind 😁) the ability to see who's more alive among the bin.

​@@OddBall1997UVC light has sterilization properties so you could disinfect the groceries too 😂 And UVB is used as a grow light. Not that this light was built with those purposes in mind!

@@Raymond-Wu Haha! I can almost see the old fashioned appliance ad: Tired of wilted greens and tasteless produce? The FWOD Grow-Fresh is here to revolutionize your kitchen. From growth to freshness to cleaning, this innovative light lets you grow fresh herbs and vegetables right on your countertop, all year round!

Interesting, I haven't heard of that use case. I know UV causes many flowers to flouresce in interesting patterns that are used to attract pollinating insects. Also yes just to add, a powerful UVA light still requires eye protection to use, even if it's not ionizing radiation like UVC.

Unfortunately this tech doesn't come cheap

Sorry my pricing didn't meet your expectations. I always try to be on the bleeding edge of technology with my lights. For example, there's not a single mention of the 255nm LED I used anywhere on the internet outside of this review. It's not publicly available for sale yet but represents the latest improvements in 255nm tech. Costs $$$ though! I leave it to Chinese manufacturers to come up with something more affordable.

@ , it’s easily the nicest light in this category and I know new tech doesn’t come cheap. I’ll just have to add it to my Christmas wish list lol.

@@ericcarabetta1161 I appreciate the compliment! It's been 3 years in the making so it warms my heart knowing that other people think that. Makes the effort worth it! Even if you don't end up getting it for Christmas feel free to ask me any uv related questions.

too expensive .... I think you could look at the Wurkkos HD01 UV, I think it's recommended!

Creator the the FWOD here. If it works it works! More power to you. Plus you'll have saved a lot of money. The light you're talking about is more of a gem inspection light - sharpie marker sized with shortwave and longwave emitters on opposite sides. You can't put both of them on a single specimen like I did in my prototype video linked in the description. Plus, as you can imagine, the LEDs used in that light are considerably weaker as well as the filter not being as good as you stated. The LEDs they're using cost ~$2-3 wholesale while mine are $20. For those that are considering the Wondsunson light I recommend getting it directly from China! You can save an additional $10-20 as the light is only $60-70 from other sites

@@Raymond-Wu For sure, your light is a lot more capable; I might be getting one myself. But $375 is going to be out of reach for a lot of people.

@@fwiffo Yup, I never bother with the race to the bottom. Chinese manufacturers will beat me 10 out of 10 times. I like innovating in this space and thankfully I do have customers willing to support me to the point where I'm able to continue doing this! Even if you don't purchase a light feel free to reach out if you ever have any uv related questions

Creator of the FWOD here. Most UV adhesives will do fine with just 365nm. However, there are some high end ones such as my favorite Loctite 349 Impruv that recommends a cure at 255nm (? can't remember exact wavelength) for full strength. Check the datasheet of whatever UV adhesive you're using

Yes I am working on a DA1K review

Creator of the FWOD here. The hobby of fluorescent minerals has always dealt with these uv wavelengths. Caution should always be exercised and Luxwad did a great job with that portion of the video. If you do decide to get a more affordable UVC light please reference the safety tips in this video!

The risks are somewhat overstated - the precautions in the video are sufficient. 10 minutes in the summer sun is much more dangerous than some occasional reflected UV-C exposure from a light like this. Which is why eye and skin protection is always recommended any time you are in the sun. The biggest risk is your 8-year-old thinking it's a regular flashlight, and staring into the thing wondering why it's not working. I wouldn't want to deal with a young child with welder's flash. However, it's a special-purpose device, not really a novelty light and not useful for most people.

He is back!

😂 hopefully the next slew of videos don't take too long

Yep

welcome back

I really want to try it, haven't gotten around to the new FF range yet but I hope to do a video or two

So far it's the only light using this driver. I believe it is the same driver that ToyKeeper labelled as being for the FW3A in one of the firmware builds, so it may show up in that light, but again, I haven't seen it in use anywhere else yet. The MCU wil appear in future drivers for many Anduril lights, such as the new Lume X1 drivers available from Hank. There's nothing about the driver that would limit the emitters available to any other similar driver
