Key Takeaways: UV flashlights are widely used in forensic science, counterfeit detection, fluid leak detection, and more. When fluorescent materials are exposed to UV light, they will glow, which is a phenomenon called fluorescence UV light is classified into three main types: UV-A, UV-B, and UV-C. Most UV flashlights use a combination of UV-A and […]
