The deserts of Iraq
and Afghanistan are home to a number of different species of scorpions, many
of which are highly toxic and pose a very real medical risk to humans stung
by the scorpion.
In fact, Iraq's "Death
Stalker" Scorpion has one of the most toxic scorpion stings on earth. One
unique feature of nearly all scorpions however, is that their bodies will fluoresce
brightly under any UV light, which makes Photon's keychain-sized 'Scorpion Finder'
perfect for sweeping dark rooms in the middle of the night to check for scorpions
before climbing into bed, putting on boots, going to the bathroom, taking a
shower, or just reaching into dark places.
The Photon 'Scorpion Finder'
is so small it can easily be carried at all times, to always be close at hand
when needed. The light features a quick-release keyring for easy attachment
to gear, and a necklace clip is included to allow the light to be worn around
the neck. The body of the light is water resistant so it can even be worn in
the shower.
Photon's new "Scorpion
Finder" is a customized Photon Freedom Micro with a purple 'blacklight'
beam, featuring an ACU 'Army Combat Uniform' camouflage body for full compliance
with military uniform regulations.
