Only one led for UV, need to move it to find the fluorescent ink and to read it. Also emits visible violet light.

Can be used to check bank notes.

Nice UV detector for false money!

Ureka! After finding a small (very small) screwdriver, I found the valve on the bottom of this lighter surrounding he fill valve hole.
Turning it clockwise did nothing, but turning it anticlockwise got the desired effect!
Now I too have a nice green flame, and a very hot mini blowtorch if I need it!
To find the adjuster 'ring' turn the lighter upside down, with the UV LED to the right, then turn the ring with two slots ANTI-CLOCKWISE.
If the flame is too high, obviously turn it back a bit clockwise.
Just for your info.
BTW - if my chemistry lessons are remembered correctly, green is caused by copper in the flame, so I assume that the glowing element has some copper in its makeup somewhere.
I'm ordering 5 more before they sell out, cos all my mates want one now

Oh wow! How neat! This would work great for work! You never can be too careful these days with fake money. Will be watching! (also how soon would you be able to send after a winner is determined) Thanks! Great item!
