New Standard Miniature Blacklight (UV) Trap

The New Standard Miniature BlackLight (UV) Trap Model 1212 uses maximum airflow and an internal super-efficient transistor ballast to drive a 4 watt blue-blacklight tube for superior catch results. The internal programmable photoswitch can control any combination of motor and/or light on and off at dusk and dawn.

Maximal Light Output

The New ABS formed rain shield and clear acrylic body reflects and transmits light downward like a street light as well as straight out. The new PhotoSwitch, unlike any on the market today delivers 100% of battery voltage to the light and motor. This means that the BlackLight (UV) Ballast and light can operate from a 6 volt battery.

Maximal Air Flow

The new PhotoSwitch delivering 100% of battery voltage means motor RPM’s are ca. 20% greater than other miniature light traps using PhotoSwitches. Coupled with our low-silhouette grill, air flow in substantially superior to other models.

Easy To Use

The trap can be programmed into the various modes without a magnifying glass or tweezers… and, no jumpers to lose. The motor can be replaced with only a screwdriver.

Internal Programmable PhotoSwitch
