UV 50W kills germs?


Crimson Lane Lights Etown

Recommended Posts

What, Wut?  You mean the 50W UV lights from LOR kill germs at 390nm?  As well as give you a tan?  I have to read that article again.  I could program the light to come on every night in my kitchen and sanitize everything the light touches.  I wonder how long you have to leave it on?  There must be study.

I believe that UV wavelengths need to be between 200nm-300nm for it to actively kill germs and bacteria. The LOR lights aren't true UV, if the are they are on the high end at 390nm.
