Althornin: Be aware that when I spoke about my experience with a system Res. -I was talking about the coolant Res. in lathes, milling machines, and so forth. The light I have been using is a "party light" 18" fluorescent from some place in a mall. I just remove the Res. lid and lay a piece of glass over the tank and set the light on it.

We have proven that it is the wrong wavelength to be most effective, but it does work. It gives off visible light so it might be ok to assume that it also radiates into the higher regions -although not as efficiently.
