[QUOTE="LONEWOLF, post: 531345, member: 6309"] Detectist, You also need a special type of filter glass for use with your Convoy S2+ 365 torch.... From here... There are other places but this was the first I found.. [url]https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32649282235.html[/url] I will put up some pics of my 'Black light' torch and some Minerals that DO show a reaction... Not many UV Minerals will 'Glow' under this torch, but it is a good starting point if the Convoy S2+ is out of your reach... There are lots of imitation Convoy s2+'s on the market... BEWARE of the Imitation ones... They are just a 'Black Light' torch... 2lateagain, that 'special' Glass is also Radioactive... So Don't handle it too much.. ;) Emmaville Mining Museum also has a pretty good Display of UV Minerals too... :Y: They also use a special type of Fluro tube in Public Toilets (Glows blue,) to prevent Needle users finding a Vein... :/ LW...
