uv flashlight question

[SteveDodds]

I own 2 different fairly expensive LED lights. One is a Surefire L2 Lumamax and the other is a Cabelas Extreme flashlight. They can be found here

Will either of these work for a uv flashlight to spot marbles?

Neiither will work...

They've got to be,specifically,UV LED flashlights like this one http://ledmuseum.candlepower.us/seventh/370-12.htm An ordinary LED flashlight won't work. UV flashlights are inexpensive and do more than looking for marbles. If you have cats or dogs the UV light will illuminate cat/dog pee stains. Go over your computer desk and you'll be amazed what lights up. Many common items in use today illuminate under UV light. If you're working a 1930s or earlier dump site,go over it at night with a UV flashlight and it'll light up like a Christmas tree. Don't waste your money on a UV flashlight that uses one AA or AAA battery. You want one with a dozen or three dozen UV LEDs. All rock shows have these for sale.
