- Reviewed in the United States on November 8, 2012I used this to find and oil leak. First I needed to drop a half a bottle of dye into the crank case, then drive the truck around for a bit.
Here's the dye that I used:
Tracer Products TP34000601 UV Fluorescent Leak Detection Dye - Set of 6
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000JFHNTM/ref=cm_cr_rev_prod_title
When you get underneath the vehicle and shine the light, the leak should glow. That you clean all the oil from the underside of the vehicle. That will make things easier to spot after you add the dye and drive it around to let it leak out.
Anyway, the product works well. You can use it for fun too. Shine it on fluorescent stuff and see it glow.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 27, 2015I like this product in theory, and my three star rating isn't intended to imply that it is substandard as compared to any other similar product. It works properly for what it is. It's just that I haven't typically found it to be very useful, as if it's a small leak in some obscure location, you won't find it anyway, and if it's a big obvious leak, you could probably find it without this. Not to mention that sometimes the dye gets spilled during or before putting it into the AC system, making the presence of the dye even less of a clear indication as to whether there is a leak or not in a given location.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 12, 2015The nice "gift" from my wife turned out to be a total farce in terms of service and it being a defective product. First shipment, I got the UV glasses and no UV flashlight. Replacement shipment, I got the UV glasses and a UV flashlight in a damaged box with a dented bezel with only 1 of the 6 UV LEDs working. The one UV LED that worked was not bright enough to illuminate UV dye in its bottle from more than 2 inches away. By the time the gift was given, open, returned, tested and found to be defective again, the 30 day time (Amazon rules) to replace a third time had expired. Online shopping at Amazon is no longer fun, it is a real PIA.
The UV glasses are OK, but you do need a working UV light. The flashlight is a total disaster because the ON/OFF switch suffers from a DESIGN DEFECT that makes it unusable. Attempting to turn ON the flashlight by twisting the barrel destroys the six LED solder joints as they are jammed into the positive terminal of the upper most battery.with the twisting motion. Even if Amazon replaced the flashlight, the LED solder joints would be "TOAST" after a few ON/OFF switch cycles. I badly needed a working UV leak testing setup.
So, I removed the UV LED circuit board, changed out the LEDs that had their leads demolished within a few turns and fabricated a new circuit board and reflector that contacts the positive terminal of the upper most battery and then sealed the red bezel to the battery tube. Now, the light turns ON/OFF by putting the batteries IN for ON and taking them OUT for OFF. It worked long enough to find the leak and repair it. Too much hassle. Went out and bought a UV flashlight at a local store for a fraction of the price. As it turn out, a 15 lead detection task took forever due to the defective product and Amazon's totally B.S. return / replacement policies. My wife and I are fed up with problems during several recent Amazon purchases involving missing parts, cr-ap products, prices much higher than local stores and shipping times much longer than Ebay sellers in the orient shipping across the Pacific Ocean. Amazon has truly lost the competitive edge ever since the Prime gimmick took free fast economy shipping away and minimum order rules have become ridiculous. Next comes thousands of intrusive Prime quadracopters displacing workers so they can dump Amazon packages on our doorsteps and bag the cash with lightening speed.. No thanks!
- Reviewed in the United States on August 10, 2011I used this light in conjunction with one bottle of Tracer Products TP34000601 UV Fluorescent Leak Detection Dye - Set of 6 (also a 5* product - please see that review for detail).
Using this light of this flashlamp and the aforeto metioned dye, a fuel leak in the engine compartment of our car looked like molten lava dripping out. I had been unable to find the leak under 'white' light.
This flashlight has an aluminum barrel and end-caps. It has o-ring seals so it should be resistant to the elements. A nice feature is that it can be switched on intermittently by pressing the button on the end cap or continuously by screwing the end cap snugly against the barrel. The light was bright enough to easily locate the leak although I was working under the proverbial 'shade tree' when it was used. I did walk around the house after dark to look for urine stains. The light output seemed strong but no stains were found except in the litter box. Good kitty!
At first I thought that the included yellow safety glasses were provided just to protect the user's retina from UV damage but they actually increase the contrast of the fluorescent glow. They are of pretty good quality, too. There was no noticable optical distortion and they were well protected for shipping.
Using this combination of the UV light and fluorescent dye saved me a lot of time and money repairing our car!
- Reviewed in the United States on April 15, 2015I found this to be pretty much useless. I tried it on 3 vehicles that were leaking oil but the light is so dim, even in a dark garage, that I could not locate the leaks. I checked the batteries and they were good. I replaced this with a much more expensive unit and there is no comparison. You get what you pay for I guess. This may be OK if you can shine it up close to the suspected area, not the condition in my cases though.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 8, 2015Works great. I used it to locate leaks in my a/c unit. You can add liquid which will show up in a uv light wherever a leak is. It makes it easier to find.
This also will disgust you if you look in the bathroom. I have a couple young boys and it show spots everywhere they miss the toilet. Not for the faint of heart.
It seems like a well built light that should last along time. It includes glasses that make it easier to see the leaks.
