365nm UV LED Torch Keyring
365nm UV LED Torch Keyring
A compact and practical tool for any crystal enthusiast or collector, this 365nm UV LED torch keyring reveals the hidden fluorescence in minerals and fossils that the naked eye simply cannot see. Whether you're hunting at shows, checking specimens at home, or adding a finishing touch to a display, this keyring torch is an indispensable addition to your collection kit.
UV torches at 365nm emit longwave ultraviolet light — the optimal wavelength for exciting fluorescence in a wide range of minerals including calcite, fluorite, scheelite, willemite, and many others. Unlike shorter-wave UV (254nm), 365nm light is eye-safer and more effective at revealing vivid colours in fluorescent specimens without washing out the effect.
Fluorescence is nature's reminder that there is always more beneath the surface. Many collectors find UV work a meditative and revelatory practice, deepening their connection with each specimen.

UV light is not eye safe - never stare into the beam and be aware of reflections. Over 18s only
Please note: fluorescence intensity varies naturally between specimens. Not all minerals fluoresce under UV light.
