Re-post from my reddit account - but one of my favorite flashlight photos I've taken.

Purple Convoy S2+ with:

  • Nichia 365nm LED Emitter
  • Main Body in purple
  • Lighted Switch in orange
  • UV filter
  • 21x1.5mm green O rings

Took macro photos of each part laid out on white A4 paper, then used Paint.net to remove the background.

Thanks! It's a ton of fun to play around with - but I wish I would have taken the advise of "Do not bring into the bathroom"

I mainly use it now for searching for Uranium glass at antique stores and occasionally on night walks just to see if anything fluoresces.

I did also learn that the 'juice'(?) in weed vape pens fluoresces which is odd.
