Hi Pixie thanks for replying but have already been in touch with maplins and that one is no good.It needs to have a powerful beam to detect the dye.

i have one here that is new,but my little boy has run the batteries out ! takes 2, 3 volt ones.used to work for a air con company and they used to sell these to customers,also have the yellow uv glasses that you need.personally i used to use a brighter one but it will be fine with the glasses and the darker it is the better ! do you ever come up this way though ......

[Bigga]
