Cool. I was confusing him with another Sandy who is an alternative process specialist. I'll read more on his opinions of led lights.
But I just have to say I do believe the train has left the station when it comes to the future of led uv lights. We just came back from a walk in our dark neighborhood. I pulled out my new tiny micro mag light flashlight. Turned it on for the first time and with the power of two little aa batteries it blasted a blinding beam at least equal to my car headlights. Led is here big time and everything else is on the way out.

FYI,
Sandy is a he not a she. He has written more about the LEDs on his Carbon Printing forum. According to his use they were not always long lived.
Sandy King PhotographyJust for the record Sandy is one of the preeminent Alternative Process Printers in the US and is internationally recognized for his research of various aspects related to Alt. Processes including various light sources, integrators, film developers and large format cameras optimized for alt. processes. He is a noted author of many articles on alternative process printing and books specifically about carbon process printing. His photography work has been published in many magazines and has been included in several international exhibits featuring alternative process prints.
He did extensive work with Mark Nelson helping test and refine Precision Digital Negatives and has helped refine the use of Quad Tone RIP with monochrome inksets for digital negatives.
And he lives just right up I-85 in S.C. so he is occasionally available for one on one workshops in his home near Greenville.
