Well actually Gary, why not just rent some time at a tanning salon? I imagine the salon would let you run a 24 or 48 hour exposure. Omni directional exposure, known exposure rate and a really nice field trip.
You could just drive up the tallest local mountain and lay the cables on a rock, but that probably wouldn’t be a sufficiently accelerated rate.

I know of a couple of labs I can get accelerated UV tests done but would like a cheap in-house solution. Other than getting into a tanning booth does anybody know of a pretty good UV generator?
