The Fullwave UV Light is a tri-wavelength ultraviolet flashlight — shortwave (254 nm),
midwave (310 nm), and longwave (365 nm) in one handheld body — built for fluorescent
mineral collectors and rockhounds who would rather not carry three lights.
Why rockhounds buy this light
- Stop carrying three flashlights. Shortwave (254 nm), midwave (310 nm),
and longwave (365 nm) in one handheld body. Press a button to switch — no digging through a
bag in a dark mine.
- A dichroic-coated filter, not bare glass. Standard 2 mm ZWB3 filter glass is specified at 50% transmission at 254 nm. The filter in this light measures 81.5% — more of the shortwave you paid for actually reaches the rock.
- Longwave is fully variable, from a dim glow to 2000 mW. Hold the button and
the 365 nm channel ramps smoothly to any level — not a two-step high/low. Turn it down to
match your shortwave indoors; turn it up at a daylight gem show.
- 465 g (16.4 oz), running on one battery. A single 21700 cell
(6000 mAh, included) powers all three wavelengths — no three-cell tray to carry. Adapters
for 32650, 26650, and 18650 are in the box, so you can use cells you already own.
- Find the buttons in the dark — even if you're colorblind. Illuminated switches
let you change wavelength without a headlamp, then dim after a few seconds so your night vision
comes back. A built-in deuteranopia mode swaps the indicator colors for red-green colorblind
users.
- Free worldwide shipping. Ships in 1–3 days. 30-day returns. 1-year warranty.
What the Fullwave UV Light is
The Fullwave UV Light is a tri-wavelength ultraviolet flashlight that emits shortwave (254nm), midwave (310nm), and longwave (365nm) UV light from a single handheld device. Designed in the USA, it is purpose-built for fluorescent mineral detection — allowing rockhounds and mineral collectors to observe fluorescence across the widest possible range of specimens without carrying multiple lights. The shortwave channel uses a 255nm PKB-S50-F36-H1 LED at 100mW radiant output, the midwave uses a 310nm PKF-50-F35 at 100mW, and the longwave uses a 365nm CUN6GB1A LED at up to 2000mW with adjustable brightness. The Fullwave UV Light is USB rechargeable via an included 6000mAh 21700 cell and supports 32650, 26650, and 18650 batteries through a set of included adapters, making it suitable for extended field use. Beyond minerals, it is used for UV glue curing, scorpion detection, and pet stain identification. Illuminated controls allow wavelength switching in complete darkness without disrupting night vision. This combination of shortwave, midwave, and longwave output is what the mineral collecting community refers to as fullwave UV observation.
What changed in V2
V2 adds a hidden colorblind mode for deuteranopia, so the indicator colours still tell you which wavelength is on if you cannot separate red from green. It also adds square-cut threads for durability and a grooved seat for the button board, which makes the light easier to open and repair.
Who is this for?
The Fullwave UV Light is built for fluorescent mineral collectors and rockhounds who want to cover shortwave, midwave, and longwave UV without carrying multiple lights. It's particularly well suited for collectors who hunt willemite, scheelite, calcite, fluorite, sodalite, and yooperlite — minerals that respond differently across UV wavelengths. It also serves gem and mineral show attendees, field geologists, and hobbyists upgrading from a single-wavelength light for the first time.
What’s in the box

- Battery adapter set — 32650 ➡ 26650, 26650 ➡ 21700, 21700 ➡ 18650
Size, weight and specs
- Shortwave — PKB-S50-F36-H1 | 255 nm | 100 mW radiant output
- Midwave — PKF-50-F35 | 310 nm | 100 mW radiant output
- Longwave — CUN6GB1A | 365 nm | up to 2000 mW radiant output

Shortwave light-emitting diodes are binned at 255 nm. Older shortwave lamps are labelled 254 nm after the mercury emission line at 253.7 nm, so you will see both numbers used for lights like this one. Same band, different measuring convention — this light is specified at its LED bin.
Batteries, warranty and returns
- Runs on one 21700 cell; adapters included for 32650, 26650 and 18650.
- Do not use LiFePO4 3.2 V 32650 cells in this light.
- 1 year warranty against defects. 30 day no questions asked return policy.
- Free worldwide shipping, dispatched in 1–3 days.
