Compact UV detection tool
The Kaito SU-001 packs 21 LEDs emitting at 395nm into a 4.96-inch aluminium body that weighs 0.23 pounds. It is built for homeowners, pet owners and hobbyists who need a portable black light to reveal dried urine, fluorescent agents, counterfeit marks or mineral fluorescence. The IP65-rated seal and rubber-covered port keep the light working in rain or damp conditions.
Thermal and power behaviour
The integrated NiMH cell recharges through a Type-C port in 3 to 4 hours and then runs for about 3 hours of continuous use. Because the battery is sealed inside the housing, there are no disposable cells to replace and no loose parts to lose. The aluminium shell dissipates the modest heat from the 21 LEDs without a fan, so operation stays silent.
Upgrade path and limits
This model replaces smaller 12-LED UV lights by covering a wider inspection area in a single sweep. It suits users who want rechargeable convenience and a rugged, pocket-sized form factor. Buyers who need longer run-times between charges or a removable battery for extended field work should look elsewhere. The 180-day purchase warranty covers manufacturing defects only.

Questions about this item
How do I charge the SU-001 flashlight and what is the common mistake to avoid?
Connect the supplied Type-C cable to any USB power source; the built-in battery recharges in 3-4 hours. The common mistake is using a low-power USB port, which lengthens the charge and reduces UV output.
What part of the SU-001 will need replacement first and when?
The sealed NiMH battery is non-detachable; after many charge cycles its capacity drops, so the whole flashlight must be replaced when run-time becomes too short.
What limits continuous use of the SU-001 during a long inspection?
The light runs for about 3 hours on a full charge; after that the battery is depleted and the UV output falls until the unit is recharged.
