What system have you found best to charge your glow tackle? Does anyone use camera flash attachments?

Right now I use a powerful flashlight. I would like to get one of those flashy things.

If I remember my Camera it works well. If not I try and remember my rechargeable large hand held spot light. This works well aLso.

I use a camera flash in a coffee can.

Black LED light, it's quick and the charge lasts a long time.

I noticed the other night when I was playing with my blacklight at home it really charged the glow stuff, but then again that was a 100 watt bulb. Are using one of the blacklight flashlites?

Got to use my old film SLR flash for something. Might as well be fishing. Mine takes 4 AAs and lasts several trips.

Yeah, it's a mini flashlight. I got a mini LED blacklight in a Rapala Jigging Shad Rap combo pack 2-years ago. Of course, glowing jigs is a regular chore when fishing for burbot. I was floored by how well and quick it charged the luminesence. I also have visor clip (purchased at Wal-Mart) with 4 blacklight LEDs that offers the same quality. I Googled my lights, without any success, but found several others. Check out this link, which may offer a good "glow" charger at an affordable price. Good luck. Ryno

I have noticed that my little UV lamp does the same thing as you describe. That make sense because the UV is a higher energy wave length.

thumbsup Thanks for all the replies guys, lots of good ideas. I also found a device called the Lure Lightning, super powerful light that runs off your 12v and can be mounted in the boat. Looks good but I don't think I need anything more mounted in the boat.

I think I am going with the uv flashlight.
