Does this emit UV or RV rays?

HI There....I believe no UV rays are emitted. RV I am not sure about. I would call Phillips lighting 1-800-555-0050 to see if they can answer your questions. I hope that helps.

I know what UV sun rays are but I have no idea what RV rays are. I thought an RV was some kind of a vehicle. I haven't got a tan from the bulb or burn so I would say no, however I've only had it a short time. There might be better sources than other customers though. Sorry. trin.

There will be heat coming from the lamp due to the flow of photons in this portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. However, UV-C may, under some conditions be visible, but you should not look at the light directly at all. A photometer can be purchased at a very reasonable price that will positively confirm the devices function and they can be purchased on Amazon and can tell you how well your device is working. I hope this helps.

I would google ultraviolet vs led and read the answers. A good one was this one www.nsinails.com/.../led-vs-uv-by-rise'-c... Hope that helps!! Crystal

It's a black light, like the kind that makes certain colors like white glow brightly, only it's not an incandescent bulb, it's 12 LED's which doesn't give off much heat energy, so batteries last a lot longer. UV-A is a color of wave length that is outside of our visible range. Mine arrived kinda silver/chrome in color.

Yes, all UV-C products produce dangerous amounts of ozone! See:http://www.newton.dep.anl.gov/askasci/chem03/chem03323.htm

UV has a light wavelength below that of the visible range. Since these lights are all within the visible range (minus the red which has part of it in the IR), there should be no UV rays.

Hello, I bought two of these units. They work great but the light is a little bright while sleeping. Fortunately there is a button on the top of the unit that turns the UV light off. Hope this was helpful.

I do not know. However, windshields do block UVA rays. I do not know about the other rays.

UV light indicator is located on top of the unit with little glass window. If it is too bright you will not see the light. Make sure you got the right model as some of them do not come with UV lamp.

No, it only has LED lights. I would not have purchased this item if it had UV lights.

This is a solar powered light. I think you are looking for a sun lamp? From what I've read, sun lamps rely on large doses of ultraviolet light. This light does not emit much in that spectrum, so don't think it's what you are looking for.

You can see a slight glow from the back of the unit. I use it in my bedroom at night, and it's not bright enough to keep me awake. I certainly wouldn't worry about the UV radiation.

Like others said... When IN, the UV light is "On" It CAN be seen a wee bit through about the area of the middle of the grill if the room is somewhat dark, but UV light is harmful to eyes so don't be staring at it long. Note: Even if the UV button is "In" it only goes on if the fan is in run mode ( Low,med,high) If fan is "Off" the UV is off too.

This pdf seems to answer your question. Seems like the lamp uses a halogen lamp? http://www.public.health.wa.gov.au/cproot/1391/2/Ultraviolet_Radiation_from_Quartz_Halogen_Light_Sources.pdf

No, not at all. I have used the lamp and radio featre continuously for over 1 1/2 hours and did not notice any heat emitting from it.

This product emit ozone due to the UV-C light. High concentration of ozone is a hazard to health.Please copy and paste this link and learn some more: http://urbanclinic.net/2011/08/13/what-you-need-to-know-about-ozone-and-air-purifiers/

Yes...it is on 24/7. This light does not emit ozone. The UV lights that emit ozone must go on and off with the fan so the ozone doesn't build up in the air handler. Thanks Scott Clean Air Solutions LLC
