Sounds like I need to broaden my search. I Googled "UV Lights" and got lots of Black Lights - all of which are bluish-Purple BTW.

Anyway, I'll look for Germicidal lamps. Seems like such a good way to keep the condensers clean.

Thx -

I suspect that they're just UV lights without the visible spectrum filter
that makes the others "black lights".-

Germicidal lamps are made out of quartz, to let the shortwave
(nasty) UV through.  Black lights are glass, IIRC, and also have
the visible light filter.  SWUV is ionizing, and makes cataracts.
LWUV makes for a trippy session listening to old vinyl records.
