UV LIGHT COMING OUT OF CW1

Hi, am I the only one that can see a lot of UV l ight coming under the lid of the CW1, and if so, how bad is it to look at it? because if I want to look at the timer I don't really have a choice and I can see the light.

 

Thanks,

If you can see it, it’s not in the UV range.

405nm is between UV and "black light". So you can see the light of those curing stations.

@kdude

It is harmful if you look at it for some time. I have bought safety goggles with UV filter for this reason. (And also a 405nm flashlight for curing splashes, stains and waste)

I wanted to construct a frame to put inside the CW1 to seal the gap, but I haven't gotten around to it yet.

Try loosening the hinges for the top and readjust the cover.  Tighten and give it a test...  You should only see a very slim line of light escaping.
