OMG! I just experienced a 365 nm UV light with a black filter covering it. It feels extremely peculiar, as if nothing but a faint purple emanates from the source. However, on the wall, everything appears as a fluorescence bluish-white. The bluish-white is completely composed of photons that are re-emitted by the wall; the filter blocked almost all light except very tiny visible violet, which is overwhelmed by the fluorescence on the wall. The 365 nm light with a filter feels fantastic in complete darkness, even urine becomes fluorescent in a green color, reminiscent of the radioactive glow often seen in movies. I might use it to inspect hidden spots in hotels.

[@UVBlackLights]

It’s great isn’t it? Except the stuff you reveal lol

[@Mysoi123]

@@UVBlackLights Yes I know that is gross, but science is cool!

[@UVBlackLights]

@minhdang1775 agree!

[@Mysoi123]

@@UVBlackLights Oh my goodness! When I expose my face to UV 365 light, I can discern numerous hidden acne spots due to the fluorescence of a bacterium known as Propionibacterium. Consequently, I observed my acne manifesting as red spots. However, it's important to note that shining this light on your face is not safe, as UV can be hazardous to the human eyes.

[@UVBlackLights]

@minhdang1775 yeah it’s pretty interesting. Also yes please don’t shine in your eyes!

[@windowbreezes]

do you know if a new version is coning out soon? thanks got showing this beast

[@UVBlackLights]

The newest one available is this mini and V3 (bigger version). Not sure if any newer ones are on the verizon.

[@windowbreezes]

good to know. cant resist purchasing one. lol

[@UVBlackLights]

@@windowbreezes you won't be disappointed lol!

[@imcurious2731]

Oh I forgot to ask, "How good is this one for quick Curing of UV Resin , for fly tying... etc.?? Thank you 🤩

[@UVBlackLights]

Unfortunately, I’m not sure on fly tying, but for trinkets it works good as I’ve tested with that. Hope that helps.

[@windowbreezes]

i just got mine. the single problem is the usb cover. the one i got the plastic cover mold was undertrimmed so it doesnt completely cover the usb hole. be careful to check for that.

[@UVBlackLights]

Good looking out. Thank you!

[@SamuelHollandsh]

Hi, does it have a charging LED when you plug up? I have one that when I plug up, I couldn't get any confirmation of charging.

[@DrEews1]

Got mine today. Thanks for the review.

[@UVBlackLights]

I love it, what about you?

[@TroyRene]

Comparison sounds great! I love the convoy s2+ you recommended! Not sure if this would be any better. One thing thats a bit annoying with the convoy is there is such a hot spot in the centre of the light beam, i wish it was more of an even spread. This uvbeast seems to potentially have that from what i can see in this video. Please let me know! Also have you tried the jaxman 6w?

[@UVBlackLights]

@troy laane comparison is on the list. Yes, hot spots are pretty common with these open LEDs and small reflectors, hard to do anything about it unfortunately. Have not tried the Jaxman yet, definitely on my list though. Thank you for watching!!

[@MAGA_Extremist]

Yes comparison video!

[@UVBlackLights]

Brandon Alexie definitely on my list! Thank you for the feedback!

[@MAGA_Extremist]

@@UVBlackLights I'm so excited I just found out I got a job this morning so I will be able to buy a new light I was going to get one anyways just now faster I was reading your conversation with someone y'all were talking about how his flashlight was getting high and that use regular batteries and you said you prefer to use lithium and he also said that he was waiting on the alonefire that's the one I went to get the alonefire 003 it's a 10 Watt LED the flashlight is around $40 looks like a really nice light

[@UVBlackLights]

@Brandon Alexie Awesome! Congrats on the new job! It’s tough out there right now. Please let me know how you like the alonefire, I’m sure you already know that’s on my list to test in the future.

[@tommyk4687]

Have you tried the Streamlight 66149 Stylus Pro USB UV Rechargeable Pen Light? Looking into buying a first uv light, like the beast you reviewed here, any advice between the two?

[@UVBlackLights]

I haven't tried that specific one, but to my knowledge it won't have as much power as the beast. I guess it really all depends what you plan to use it for?

[@tommyk4687]

@@UVBlackLights just for fun around the house, the streamlight is 400nm and more expensive....

[@UVBlackLights]

@@tommyk4687 I would go with the mini beast then. Unless you want the visible purple light from the 400nm.

[@tommyk4687]

Does the mini beast have to have the light on and shining in order to charge? Confused from reviews I read....

[@UVBlackLights]

@@tommyk4687 I haven’t tested as much, but from the directions it says it has to be on.

[@mylifeisbroken34]

Am I going to use it to charge fake fish baits? Should I get the 365 or the 395?

[@imcurious2731]

When you said Glass filter, does that also mean that the lens is glass & Not Polymer (Plastic)?! It Would be Great, if you would list the flashlights that have Glass Lens!!

[@UVBlackLights]

The filter is woods glass, it’s separate from the lens. I’m unsure which has glass lenses, sorry if I was unclear about that.

Hey!! Awesome channel bro. Just a quick question. How does the normal V3 365nm compares against the mini 365nm? Does the mini gets too hot? Is the normal much brighter? Thank you!! Just got the big V3 365nm, that's why I would like to know : )

[@UVBlackLights]

Hello! Thank you! The mini doesn’t get hot. The big V3 is more powerful than the mini, since you have 3 LEDs vs 1 LED. Hope that helps!

@@UVBlackLights it does help a lot, thank you! 3 leds vs 1, that's says it all. I'm also planning to buy the V3 395nm, V3 395nm & 365nm mini too haha. BTW have you checked the super bright and powerful normal light flashlights? I own the Imalent MS03 & MS06 and they are pretty damn cool 😎

[@UVBlackLights]

Nice! I don’t really play around with high powered regular flashlights. Although I seen a lot of videos on them and it’s pretty amazing how bright those can get!

It's pretty amazing honestly! But anyways, keep up the good work man. Thanks to your channel, I bought the uvBeast V3 365nm 😁

[@UVBlackLights]

@ thank you and I’m glad I can help!

[@adelalmarzooqi1993]

Is it good for charging fishing gear or I should go for the big one? I’m a bit confused between the mini and the big one.

[@UVBlackLights]

Either or for charging. Personally I would take the small one for fishing. Easier to carry.

[@scrupool]

Question, I was looking for a black light strip I could put around my room only problem is I like it dark n not a lot of light but I want the black light items I have to pop any recommendations would be much appreciated! Thanks

[@UVBlackLights]

@focual Sorry for the late reply, KZbin didn't notify me. If you want something with less visible light, you would need to look for a 365nm black light strip. Hope that helps!

[@scrupool]

UV Black Lights thanks!

[@UVBlackLights]

Focual anytime!

[@L0st-n0found]

Any idea why UVBeast 365 are all OOS? I'm a little leary of UVBeast as the 100led version I bought a long while back doesn't light up well (yes I didn't realize I wanted 365) AND it heats up and the batteries die VERY, VERY fast. Great you're getting lights sent to you w/ only 3XX subscribers/views Boggles the mind a bit - do you have connections with some lighting supplier?

[@UVBlackLights]

They sold out pretty quick probably cause it’s a good purchase. I didn’t test the 100 LED, but i know those type of LEDs aren’t very good. What do you mean by batteries die fast, you can’t use them anymore or you have to recharge them quickly? No connections, I simply just asked them for an honest review for free. Who wouldn’t want free advertising?

[@L0st-n0found]

@@UVBlackLights according to the uvbeast the one you reviewed lasts 2-4hrs / charge the 100 led lasts 12-16hrs / 6AA batteries... Mine had massive parasitic drain so if left untouched with full batteries or would be almost dead in a month. When putting in fresh set and using it would get hot in hand under sustained use and die (would dim and start flickering until it ran out after about 10-15min) I also purchased a goliath,i think it was, 100 and a 50 the 100 was slightly longer lasting than the uvbeast (maybe hr of use} though also had massive parasitic drain) think it had 3 or 4 AA batteries instead of 6 in beast and the goliath 50/51? Led one lasted much longer and was only noticeably dimmer for a very short time before the 100s started getting dim. The uvbeast broke after not too long followed by one of the goliath i still have one of the goliath somewhere. I came to your channel looking at the convoy uvbeast v3 and some others. I don't really want to order a convoy from ali or bangood or some random seller Looks like the LG w/ filter that can't be legally sold in us? Is the best thej the nichia.. People say some sellers sell the good patent infringing filters in us.. Though that's research I didn't do. I got impatient researching and ordered a alonefire sv003 and a sv004 ... No ideas if they will be good. I was also looking at a 4 pack of darkness Sk68.

[@UVBlackLights]

@R H I'm not a big fan of regular batteries, but I tend to take out the batteries when not using for awhile. Sounds like you had defective and it was over powering the flashlight, once the temperature reaches to a certain point its done. My personal opinion, regular batteries aren't good enough for some of these high powered UV Flashlights. The Convoy S2+ is my oldest UV Flashlight and I have had 0 issues with it and it's my most used flashlight. I'm going to be using the UVBeast Mini more often to see how durable it is. Please let me know how you like the Alonefire. What do you use the UV Flashlights for? The SK68 might not be powerful enough for you. PS: Sorry for the late replies, KZbin isn't notifying me for some reason.

[@L0st-n0found]

@@UVBlackLights I like regular batteries for so, e things... Ease of replacing to keep endless light for one. So far I've only received the sv004 which says it has the coveted LG uv and a filter... Battery is taken out to charge I used influded charger and after about 9 hrs still wasnt showing done. I've started testing on however full the battery is. On a non reactive background in darkness there is almost no visible light (akin to lowest "moonlight" mode I've seen on a regular white led) . It lights up everything I expected magnificently. Compared to the old uvbeast, Goliath and whatever single simple low power uv lights I had a million years ago - it's like one was looking at nothing and suddenly opened their eyes to a world of light. I will be curious to heat on extended use and how long it lasts before stepping down noticably. I haven't seen the nichia uv and haven't seen the convoy lg but I can't believe they could be any better. Distance I haven't tested yet except it lights up like a Christmas tree things 100feet away inside house. Will try outside later. I have primarily used them for checking rooms and glass. I plan on bringing a good one or two everywhere and at some point using for rocks and minerals, various outside, jewelry and glass. Whatever else. I also noticed that while not shinning at anything very close to me and not looking anywhere near the led - I seem to be having an issue with the light particularly in one eye (headache and some blurriness)

[@UVBlackLights]

@@L0st-n0found Well, Nichia is #1 in the industry for producing UV LEDs. They also have the least visible light output. Sounds like you found something you like and will work for you. When the funds are available, I'll try and grab the Alonefire to check out. The old UV flashlights you had were I believe in the 395nm wavelength, so you'll get alot of visible light. You're getting headaches and blurriness when using it? Might want to get some UV protective glasses.

[@makerofmanythings8447]

Hey bro, I bought a 365NM flashlight with a wood glass filter on Amazon, it's called lumenshooter it's a single cell unit (18650) 2600mah included with a decent USB charger it has three emitters, and it's very well built, it has 15 watts. I paid $42 to get it to my door. Dude this is an AWESOME 365NM UV light, I just wanted to let you know. I emailed UVBEAST and asked them when the UVBEAST 365 WITH THE FILTER WILL BE BACK IN STOCK, THEY TOLD ME 2 WEEKS!!😍 OBVIOUSLY THE UVBEAST V3 365 WITH THE FILTER IS THE ONE I REALLY WANT, BUT THE LUMENSHOOTER 365NM WITH FILTER IS LIKE THE UVBEAST V3's little brother..Thanks for you cool videos bro..👍😎👍

[@UVBlackLights]

That’s good to hear! Glad you like what you got! Lumen shooter looks good!

[@sto2779]

What kind of 365nm UV LED brand does it use?

[@UVBlackLights]

Unfortunately, I couldn't get that information from them.

[@JustinOrnellas]

You you know if this Mini and the big 3 LED version have the same LED

[@UVBlackLights]

Yes, I believe so.

[@justinambrocio]

yes comparison vid vs the s2+ plz. dont really need a uv light, but after watching your vids, i have to have one! keep these vids coming!

[@UVBlackLights]

@justinambrocio For sure, comparison should be in the making! Thank you for watching and the comment helps!

[@SamuelHollandsh]

Hi, could anyone tell me when plugging up the uv beast v3 mini to charge, does it have a charging LED? The reason I ask is because I have one that when I plug up the little led by the charging port never came on(if it is a led).

[@AustrianRocks]

why the company dont telling the watt per led? why?

[@UVBlackLights]

No idea. You can probably email them and ask what the wattage is.

[@TTEREVE]

love your energy haha

[@UVBlackLights]

Haha thank you! 🤙🏻🤙🏻

[@princeofcats548]

That would be great in a toolbox.

[@UVBlackLights]

It definitely is! Very useful I must say!

[@MAGA_Extremist]

How many watts is the mini?

[@UVBlackLights]

7-10 watts. Depending on battery used, as you already know. The amount of UV output is 450mW.

[@MAGA_Extremist]

450 mw im confused isn't that almost half of a watt? Can you explain it to me a little more I'm trying to get a little knowledge on the subject you can be my teacher if you don't mind I love to learn I know a good bit about lasers and regular flashlights and just a little bit about UV flashlights I am new to the UV flashlight game years ago I had a chinky UV flashlight 400 nm it was a couple bucks I really want to get uvbeast Mini because it has the USB C charger built into it and I guess the reason why I got this alonefire is because I knew it was 10 watts I'm looking for the most powerful single LED UV flashlight

[@UVBlackLights]

@@MAGA_Extremist 450 mW is basically the output of the UV. You can't really measure UV in wattage, as that's circuit wattage and not output wattage because it hides the fact that 100% wattage is never converted into pure UV. It's lost through heat, non-UV radiation, and also 365nm LEDs can only convert 20% of the input into UV. (385-390nm can convert about 80%).

[@MAGA_Extremist]

@@UVBlackLights thank you for clarifying that. With that information I'm going to go research and shop for the most powerful 385 - 390 since the uv output is 60% more 365 I will keep in touch and let you know what I discover

[@UVBlackLights]

Brandon Alexie sounds good but be careful there are a lot of cheapies out there!
