Thread: Help: 400W UV Cannon Coverage

Tweet

Hi, does anybody have any experience of these or have any pics showing the amount of UV coverage given out. I really need to add some more UV this year. I was thinking about maybe buying LED UV instead, not sure which will be best though.

My gardens not huge so hopefully it'll give out enough light.

No replies.. anyway I found out the coverage of a Chauvet Black Shadow 400w Blacklight it's up to 70ft x 60ft.

Where as their LED shadow panel covers 20ft x20ft.

I've seen an acme 400W cannon on ebay for £104 so I'll get that I think, I imagine it'll give the same as the Chauvet one.

coool i hope the blacklight works well :P

I found an ex hire uv cannon from a dj store online for £50, just need the bulb. No doubt the Hubby will be moaning about me spending again

aha i'm allways getting moaned at for spending so much time and money into halloween displays, and by the way i strongly agree with your username

I'm still experimenting with UV LED floodlights. The trick seems to be to have enough UV-reactive props to make it all worth while. The LED floods are much more efficient than any of my bulbs or tubes and they never get hot.

i see so many haunts on youtube where they've spent loads on uv stuff but hardly any props that actually need uv light to work proplerly, floucent paint is very good as uv gives it a good glow.
