I am looking to buy a blacklight torch for opal noodling, can anyone suggest the best value torch and where to get it?
Thank you for your advice 🙏 ☺️There's lots of details and discussion in this thread, Bob:

There's cheap UV torches on eBay, etc, but I'm not sure how well they would work with opal and gems, as they may produce the wrong frequency UV light. I think you need to go to a geology/prospecting tools supplier to be sure you're getting something that will work well. Unfortunately, those ones aren't cheap - see this page that I just googled:
