NOW FEATURING - More Convenient USB Recharging
Universal USB charging, allowing you to recharge the flashlight with a laptop, car charger, or power bank without needing a wall outlet. You can charge the battery inside the UV flashlight, directly. The battery is removable so you can still charge in an external lithium ion cylindrical battery charger as we have for years. 
 
MORE POWERFUL UPGRADED UVC LED as we introduced in the M1-255-V2 UV Flashlight! Shipping NOW! The Shortwave 255nm version 2 UVC LED flashlights are finally here at Midnight Minerals! This UV flashlight emits true shortwave UVC light in a beam that produces a brilliant fluorescent response on shortwave-reactive minerals like Willemite, Calcite, Fluorapatite, Feldspars, Rubellite, Scheelite, Wollastonite, Hardystonite, Clinohedrite, Autunite and many, many others. They say about 90% of the minerals that fluoresce, will do so only under shortwave UV. That's where the Midnight Minerals M1 255nm UVC Flashlight shines! Please look through the photos of this light illumnating Hardystonite (violet/blue), Willemite (green) and Calcite (red/orange). I took the last photo outside to demonstrate the light's output. This is the first in our lineup of Raymond Wu Designed UV Flashlights.

THIS SHORTWAVE FLASHLIGHT WILL NOT WORK FOR SODALITE (YOOPERLITES) ONLY SHORTWAVE-REACTIVE MINERALS. "Yooperlites" will glow a deep red as it's the Feldspars in the rock that are glowing under UVC, not the Sodalite. 
 
WHAT'S IN THE BOX?
Each Kit contains the Midnight Minerals M1 255nm UVC Flashlight with Dichroic UV Bandpass Filter installed that allows 20% more UV to pass through than a traditional Hoya U-325C or ZWB3 filter. 
1 YEAR WARRANTY - Each order comes with a 1 Year Satisfaction Guarantee. We'll replace your Midnight Minerals M1 if there is ever an issue. 
M1-255-V2 SPORT Kit includes:
M1-255-v2 Shortwave UV Flashlight
1 Rechargeable Battery (Li-Ion 18650 Protected 3000 mAh)
USB-C Charger Cable
 
Here are some specs on the light:
Increased 100mW radiant output in focused spot beam (the original M1 was 80mW). Additionally, the new LED employs a new reflector build right into the LED chip. I say it's about equivalent to a 9W bulb's flood beam. Beware of other makers advertising 100+mW. This flashlight is built using the latest LEDs from the same Korean manufacturer as everybody else. Those that claim 100+mW are actually using chips from 1-2 generations ago and somehow get more efficiency than the actual manufacturer... In other words, they're fake numbers coming from a Chinese manufacturer. 
Electrical wattage is 4W.
 
NOTE: The Laser Etched Markings on the UV flashlight may differ from that in the photos. We reserve the right to make some small changes to the markings. Our latest batch of the USB rechargeable models have a slight change to the locations where we can make markings on the light. Newer photos will come as soon as we can shoot them. 
 
We highly recommend the use of UV Protective Safety Glasses with this shortwave UV flashlight.
