BLACK LIGHTS Ever wanted to know if your amber is real or fake? A black light is one of the easiest ways to help this identification! Real amber has a yellow to blue glow, fake plastic has no luminescence.
If you are looking for a high quality black light (other than the utilitarian one above), then this is your spot. Here is a black light that will survive the roughest earthquake.
Great price

Actually there are many uses besides identifying fake Vs real amber. Here are some of them: Many scorpion
species show up in UV light. Take your light to a desert and Cat urine shows up in UV light. Ever wonder if your cat is urinating behind the chairs? Paper Products: Most paper products--like post cards, books, signs, photos papers, etc.--made before the late 1930s-WW2 era rarely fluoresces. Paper products made since 1950, however generally fluoresces brightly due to large amounts of chemical bleaches and dyes. In works of art,
modern paint will fluoresce or glow under a black light, older paints
will not. Thus, pictures that have been "touched up" with modern
paint will glow. Repairs or hairline cracks may show and become more apparent under backlight. Art Glass: Lalique before 1945 fluoresces yellow; after 1945, it does not. Genuine old Burmese fluoresces bright yellow green, new reproductions do not.
Porcelain: Hard paste porcelain will fluoresce a deep blue or purple color.
Soft paste will fluoresce white. Interesting set of pictures of plants under UV light.
