Black Light for Animal, Mineral, and Vegetable Identification


An inexpensive black light was constructed with a LED light source from easily available products. This light can be made with a minimum knowledge of electronics. It can be used to hunt for scorpions, identify fluorescent minerals, and inspect produce or motel rooms for contamination.
