Hi

Further to my query last week- you will recall that the dismal Scottish
summer has persuaded me that I need to make a UV light source, and several
people helped with basic designs etc.

Now on the subject of lamps- some people recommend "black light" UV tubes.
However Dick Arentz in his book states categorically that "black light"are
the least efficient, "super actinic" are better, and "aguarium" (?) are best
of all. Further, talking this over to a commercial lithographer, he
suggested using actinic rather than UV sources. So, who is right?

Best

Rod
