Hi, I'm in need of a UV light to help see the presence of harmalas, and maybe to visualize TLC plates in the future.

I've looked at LED models but they only go to 380nm or so. I'm not sure if this would be suitable for my intended applications.

Does anyone have any recommendations for what type of light I should consider (fluorescent, incandescent, LED), or if there are any specific models that are suited for my purpose and relatively inexpensive?
