How easy is it to cause damage to the eyes by looking at things lit by UV-A?

So, today I foraged mushrooms for solid 4-6 hours using Convoy S12-UV (9W) w/ 365 nm filter on, intermittently, at max power, and managed to find lots of Russulas which all fluorescense under UV light. Oh, also I burned trough 2 fully charged 5000mAh 21700 batteries. I have PC clear cycling glasses altho I did not use them. Did I do some damage? I feel fine tho. Was mostly using it in combination with Sofirn's HS21 on low (flood or red).

Also, how cooked am I if I continue doing that without wearing glasses?

Pomoć u vezi kupovine Schwalbe spoljašnje gume - okolina Beograda

Pozdrav,

Vozim bicikl pod nazivom Stevens Taniwha 2022 sa točkovima prečnika 29". Bandaši su široki 19mm, ali fabričke gume su 2.25". Iako čitam na netu da to nije problem, čini se da su ze baš zbog te razlike u širini, spoljašnje gume "olabavile", otanjile po strani, pored toga što su već istrošene, pa mi trebaju nove.

Fabričke gume su Smart Sam 29x2.25 sa K-Guard zaštitom i želeo bih da ih zamenim maaaalo užim gumama sa mnogo većim stepenom zaštite pošto najčešće vozim kroz šume i selendre i prečesto ih bušim i vadim trnje.

Ostao bih uz Schwalbe jer sam zadivljen dugotrajnošću. Zasad se, koliko googlam, dvoumim između:

Smart Sam Plus (Double Defense) 29x2.1

Marathon Plus (Smart Defense) 29x2.1

Na jednom sajtu (možda Pro Bike) sam video da imaju model jedne od te dve samo širine 1.6". Jel' to preusko za moju namenu - stenje i korenje?

A da ne okolišam, glavno pitanje je, oko kojeg bih molio pomoć - gde mogu u BGu ili okolini kupiti par jedne od ove dve gume?

Iz Lazarevca sam, pa mi je ok i platiti dostavu, samo da znam da je to to i da nisu stajale u magacinu sto godina (zato više volim da pogledam uživo u kakvom su stanju).

Unapred hvala!!

I just found a broken glass lid in the closet of our kitchen.

I got other things to get done before heading off to work which is soon. Won't tell anyone at home until they discover it... It feels terrible, but I don't even have time to type more than this.

Help me correct my wishlist from Convoy:

From the most to the least important to my needs and wishes:

  • M21H sft70 3000K w/ beaded and stripe TIRs for my bicycle.

  • L21B sft40 3000K for ungodly throw across misty hills and meadows as compared to IF22A

  • M21K LHP73B 5000K for maximum power

  • S12 3x519A 4000K because the host is as beautiful as freshly shaven bollox

  • S21E B35AM 4000K cuz why not. Probably bad for MTB, but awesome for camping, hiking, and indoors.

Tho I was contemplating M21H w/ XHP70.3 4000K for handlebars since it doesn't matter which one - no driver other than for sft40 has a spring on it's side. I greatly value lumens, then throw, then spill for bike. But I do not need another low CRI light... Altho XHP70.3 r9050 somehwere in between HI and R9... W/ positive DUV... Shame.

Forgot to post 620nm red light w/ SMO reflector the last time:

Medium, low, high (moonlight is not visible on camera from that distance), white on high.

u/Ok_Profession_8471 — 17 days ago

Some on low, some on mefdium, a few on turbo.

The difference between Orange Peel reflector and a 5° TIR.

Difference between high CRI 5000K and <R70 6500K.

WB not locked.

Was just having fun.

Hope you appreciate the lowest of efforts.

Different lights, different uses. And tbh I do hse them a lot, not just for fun.

I did not want to show my messy apartment, so this is the second quickest I could do beans-vise. Got the flashlight several days ago after 14 days since the package was sent, which was shortly upon I confirmed the order, after deciding which long-wanted UV light to purchase for outdoor use, mainly in a forest to forage mushrooms at nite when the season begins, and after messaging with Simon, and him patiently explaining why some of my requests for custom order were not realistic, also helping me tremendously to decide between S12-UV, and M21A-UV, both of which you can google reviews for specs and what not. Emitters, altho lower power, have grown to me, and the buck-boost driver really does keep Reliance battery in check. I love the SMO reflector aswell. Has a nice range outdoors, about 5-10m at which pigments that reflect UV as white light the most are still visible. The effect is even more pronounced with filter, but it does throw further and act like a proper weak flashlight with usable spill with a clear AR coated lens that lets the white light through.

Now, I took pictures in the following order:

  1. With ZWB2 365nm glass filter lens Low
  2. With filter Medium
  3. With filter High
  4. Control
  5. Without filter - w/ clear glass
  6. With clear glass
  7. No filter
  8. The flashlight
  9. Emitters without filter
  10. Emitters without filter
  11. ...without filter through clear Polycarbonate cycling glasses
  12. Emitters with filter
  13. ...with filter through the anti-UV glasses

I deffinetly am really enjoying using this flashlight, which I did do in the woods, and let me tell you, this is one of my best purchases to this day. Needless to say I am in awe with everything, the aluminum body, ease of swapping lenses, battery, tailstand, rope, button, actual cooling surface of the head, robustness, size and weight, Simon.

I will deffinetly be purasing more Convoy handheld fladhlights.
