All these videos forget an important tip. Use a fan, to keep the temps down around 80• (based on vicks suggestion) or you can cut out a hole/make a custom vent to vent the heat out, no this won’t affect the results as the holes/vents are very small.
small 10 gallon aquarium $20 uv led string light kit $20-$49 (depends on quality and strength/wavelength) better because you get more lights and better placement for coverage. Hydrogen peroxide like $12 with plenty left over to only do the soles tinfoil or reflective tape for better light coverage $12-$20. $64 for cheapest options and the benefit here is it is the perfect size if you want to restore other plastics like game controllers and mouse/keyboard/mics/headsets of PCs, phone cases
This specific one doesn’t have modes, but it needs the full spectrum lighting so don’t get one that switches between bloom and veg if that’s what you’re referring too by mode
Most UV lights over $30 have a build in fan. It's worth the investment to spend a bit more for one with a fan. If you get one without you need to add a cheap $5 tabletop one from Walmart or wherever to prevent sole separation. You can just cut a little hole at the bottom of the box or tote to feed the line through then use duct tape to cover it up on both sides. I would also poke some holes in the very top of the box to allow air flow (or the bottom of the box if there is a build in fan with your UV light.) Tiny holes with like an ice pick or something. That's what I did.
As long as you position the light close enough to the shoes I don’t see why not! Would work great actually if you have a light/lights that cover the whole tent. Just keep them lowered about a foot away from the shoes
600 watts should get the job done, but 1000watts is way more efficient. so 1000 watts / 5 watts = 200 leds if you have 200 leds then you should be good

Do I need a fan if I'm using a cardboard box and also a 1000W Full Spectrum light?
Yes
Absolutely 💯

where do you get the UV light from, im in Europe and all the Light here are over 70
The box doesn’t need any type of ventilation?
How close does the uv light has to be to the shoes. Should I prop the shoes up to get closer on let them sit at the bottom?
About 18 to 21 inches depending on your 📦
Love video’s like this keep it up😁👍🏽
Doesn't it overheat??
Can this be used for food as well?
What mode do you turn on for the light ?

If yours have the 2 options like mine veg and bloom , use the veg setting
You using tape measure I failed already. Great video
Should a fan be on the shoes?? Or built into box

How long does the UV light last for?
Yo I have a grow tent will that work

@@heel2toedetroit226 thanks bro
Are u supposed to leave the lid closed or halfway open
Do u use veg or bloom?
Full spectrum, try to get one like the one I have linked in the bio that doesn’t switch between the two. You want full spectrum
I already brought it so do I turn on both ?
@@Zayx1 I’m about to try both bro.
@@Trapgodtre yea it’s both my shoes coming out good
@@Zayx1 so turn on veg and bloom
Together ?
Awesome vid. Use Mylar film instead of foil tho
Hi, I found lamp like this on video but have 5watt per one led, is it good?
600 watts should get the job done, but 1000watts is way more efficient.
so 1000 watts / 5 watts = 200 leds
if you have 200 leds then you should be good
@@filastinehorra9380 this lamp what i found have 60leds
@@maciejmonet4846 that makes 300watts for the lamp, you should at least have 2 of them
@@filastinehorra9380 @Road Runner is right, 600 watts of total light will do but 1000 watts gives noticeably faster results!
@@filastinehorra9380 will it work if I use one lamp? it just takes longer?
I need to see how good yo box work tho
What about air?
If the light has a fan you're good.
Just to be safe to use another fan
Thats not a uv light lol
