CFL units

2008-09-03 by Wayne

Whilst searching for a walk-in supplier of black-lights, I came across
a section on Wiki that suggests that CFL bulbs might produce more UV
than a regular fluoro tube.

The article did mention "might" and "may" in relation to the UV light.

Has anyone used these, and are they effective.  For if they are, then
I have an entire cupboard full of spare CFL bulbs ranging from only 4w
to 15w and may even be a little higher.
