Shadowhawk 365nm UV Torch 30W rechargeable 🔦

This compact 365nm UV torch delivers a focused black light beam for locating pet urine, inspecting resins and revealing fluorescent minerals during outdoor activities. Its 30W 4-core LED and multi-layer filter aim to reduce visible light spill and increase contrast for clearer detection in dark environments.

Key Points

The torch uses a true 365nm wavelength to highlight organic stains and scorpions more effectively than higher wavelength UV lights that can produce washed-out fluorescence. A multi-layer optical filter is fitted to block much of the visible spectrum, producing a purer violet glow that helps distinguish fine details when inspecting surfaces. The body is built from aluminium with an IP67 rating, which offers protection against dust and temporary immersion, and the unit includes hold-to-adjust dimming from very low output to full power for flexible use in different scenarios. A readable LCD shows remaining battery with high accuracy according to the manufacturer, helping to avoid unexpected shutdowns during fieldwork.

Benefits

The rechargeable 6000mAh battery supports extended sessions of inspection and exploration, and the torch can also function as a power bank via its USB-A output. Charging is handled through USB-C with a fast charge profile that the manufacturer states can reach full capacity in around two hours. For situations where you need discretion, the lower brightness settings preserve night vision while allowing you to check for fluorescence. The torch’s beam is reported to reach up to approximately 30 feet for clear target illumination, which is useful when scanning rough terrain or searching for golf balls at night. ⚡🔦

Usage Recommendations

For best results when detecting pet urine or mold, use the torch in a darkened room after turning off ambient lights and allow a few seconds for fluorescence to stabilise. When examining rocks or mineral samples outdoors, sweep the beam slowly and at an angle to reveal veins and inclusions. If you are concerned about battery life on long trips, keep the LCD battery readout in view and switch to lower output settings as needed. Consider protecting the filter lens from rough abrasion to maintain its visible light blocking performance.
