Mantaray S1 has a lot of visible light and makes it hard to see the bills.The beam looks purple instead of a deep blue/purple. The Xanes 51UV uses a 395nm LED, but may actually be above 400nm.The 365 nm is deeper into the UV spectrum and has less visible light.īasically, 365nm is preferred over 395 for most applications where UV is needed. UV flashlights are often referred to as 365nm or 395nm. UV light should be invisible to our eyes, because of the wavelength.

I set the camera to ISO1600, F4, but with automatic shutter speed. Because it’s illegal to own any counterfeit bills or money, I can only show authentic money. These ‘hidden’ characteristics only appear under the proper wavelength of UV light. Now, I will check which flashlight shows the ink used in these bills. You can compare the LED with the one of the Convoy S2 (which is an LG UV LED). The LG UV LED in Sofirn’s flashlight, looks more like a Nichia 365UV (like the one in the Convoy S2+).

Unfortunately, I couldn’t take a picture of the UV LED of the Weltool M2BF, because the bezel is glued.
