Re: useing UV

I gotcha. I'm not saying we are using it just trying to find out if it was an option. I know UV at certain levels or high enough wavelengths could be dangerous but didn't know if 1 or 2 leds of the near uv would be bad. Seeing as it is questionable we will stay away from it.

I have asked a couple of the local inspectors this past weekend who gave answers of being unknown. (actually one said he didn't see it as being an issue)

So for an alternative we shall look at a large number of red and blue leds.
