Hercules EX

Designed upon request of the military, Hercules is probably the most durable and shock-proof UV light in the world today, suitable for any “heavy duty” environment. It comes with explosion proof approvals and is tested to comply with ASTM E3022-18 and all PRIMES requirements, including Rolls-Royce RRES 90061 and Airbus AITM6-1001. Accidentally dropped it, kicked it, baked it in an oven, run it over by a tank? – it will still work! – The battery is inside the light; you don’t need to worry it got smashed like ordinary lights. Zero LEDs out from day of launch, 7 years ago! This unique light is battery powered and has four UV Leds that generate an intensity of 4000 µW/cm2.
