Re: UV Lights

Ok!

How about initial type UV-A or UV-B?

I´m about to build "UV-lightbox" since I have all pieces but no tubes
yet. About to buy some tomorrow. I don´t like idea of buying anything
blindfolded.

Fluorecent tubes are widely avilable here.

I intend to make ballast from thin sheet of aluminium which I have still
left plenty. (got it from local print at no cost) And hide everything
inside large wooden box (fits interior and keeps children away from
UV-light)
