[review] Wurkkos WK30 white/red/UV light

I was going to order a second, but they’re out of stock.

Bummer.

I’ve decided that my wife probably won’t get this one, though she can be pretty persuasive and, sometimes even scary, when she wants something. I may have to use the police strobe on her.

I ordered one last Saturday. Not Prime…but Free shipping. HASN’T shipped yet… Man, this is the slowest shipping to date ever from Amazon. :smiling_imp:

nice to see so many hopping on the bandwagon and ordering a good light at a good price… Hope they get more to Amazon to sell.

Hope more come in soon, before people lose interest. :open_mouth:

Talk about eerie… First cell clocked in at 5380mAH, second at 5378mAH, only 2mAH off!

(Or was it 5376? Either way, really close.)

Well crap, Amazon is out of them and it is not marked as a backorder… just flat out.

Well, mine just shipped. ETA…Aug 6… that’s a total of 10 days…. Coming from Michigan Slow slow slow…. :weary:

I saw ,I believe, 2 days ago on the Amazon link to WK30 that they expected more stock first week of August. The 4th 6th is what I think it said. So don’t give up yet. :+1:

I’ve only been whining coz I wanted it by my birthday . Yeh, I’m spoiled ain’t I? :stuck_out_tongue:

Hey, I just got word that it’s back in stock, and yes indeedy, Amazon lists it as arriving August 6th.

Eat up!

Is there a new coupon code available?

I can confirm that the battery that comes with Thrunite’s TC20 and Catapult V6 do fit and work in it even though the Thrunite batteries are protected and longer. The reverse worked too, the short Wurkkos marked battery worked in the TC20. ( after I figured out I was accidentally trying to put the wrong flashlights tailcap on.)

Oh. Unno. What about that 6somethingsomething code?

Nope … does not work.

Just sharing an observation here- I have the WK30 and I have a Convoy S2+ UV Nichia 365nm, and there is a very big difference between the two. My Convoy UV light is more aqua blue compared to the very purple WK30 and it lights up a lot more stuff than the WK30. For example, looking on the wall near a light switch, the Convoy shows a perfect hand print, most likely from one of my grandsons (no idea what he had on his hands) but the WK30 shows nothing.
I really like the WK30, but I’m planning to change the emitter to the Nichia LED used in the Convoy.

Did you have the WK30 on the high output when doing that comparison?

Low or high doesn’t change what you can see, it just makes it brighter :smiley:

Okay.

With your observations, maybe I won’t get a 2nd WK30 for my wife to use in our other house to find cat urine. Sounds like the Convoy S2+ is a better option.

I mostly find detergent residue with my WK30. Doesn’t even pick up drool on my bed pillow.

:question: So 30nm’s wave length difference between emitters makes quite the difference in what is revealed to the eye.

Yeh. Some things fluoresce under plain ol’ blue light. Others under violet. Others only under 395nm and shorter, then 385nm and shorter, and best is 365nm which’ll get most things including the red strip on US hunnerts.

…… call me absolutely SHOCKED when I turn the UV mode on in my bathroom, and kitchen! Do I need a cleaning service? :open_mouth:

Man, I know what you mean. I can’t believe what I see. Even after a good mopping. YiKeS…
