A green glow doesn’t automatically mean uranium! 😭 Clear glass often contains manganese, which can fluoresce under 365nm UV. A 395 light is generally better for spotting uranium glass. Let’s not confuse new collectors! 💚☢️

Brother that 365 can confuse a lot of people. It’ll pick up a lot of manganese and other things that won’t shine in their cabinet with their regular black light strips.

That clear glasses, not Uranium, it’s manganese glass. Here’s a chart to help identify UV reactive glass.

Always bring your black light. Found these at GW a few days ago. They did not look like uranium at all. But I did a quick passing swipe with my light over all the shelves anyways and BAM!

I would only use a a 365nm filtered uv light if I was a veteran in the ug community.. Personally it's my preferred light set up for hunting but I can't tell you how many new people immediately jump to 365 shine it on everything.. see some semblance or green and think it's ug. I usually suggest to them 395 first so it's less false positives not to say that 395 couldn't light up manganese or cadmium, selenium for example but it's far less often.. older milk glass usually has manganese in it.

I wouldn’t even bother with anything that didn’t light up under 395 honestly.
