Best Black Light Fixtures of 2025

"I can't express how much I LOVE these lights! Initially, I planned to use two bars per cabinet level, but after testing just one, I was amazed at how bright they are. Connecting the four bars was super easy, and using the magnetic feature to install them in my antique cabinet was a breeze. I'm thrilled that they don’t damage the cabinet and even after being on for 10 hours, they remained cool to the touch. They perfectly showcase my Uranium glass collection—I'm definitely buying more soon!"

"I bought these for my front yard Halloween display, and I’m quite pleased! Compared to my usual 48” BLB tubes, these are much better for my needs. The pros include: incredibly lightweight, easy to install, excellent UV effect from a distance, and they’re very bright! The only downside is that they’re not dimmable, but overall, I’m really happy with them and plan to get more!"

"So far, I'm enjoying these lights for about a week now. They are great! I’m using them for a black light tapestry, and they really enhance the look!"

"I was initially skeptical about this black light due to its low price, but I'm thrilled with its top-notch quality! It illuminated my son's room beautifully, making everything glow. I can't believe how much brighter it is compared to the expensive tubular black lights I previously bought. I'm so pleased that I'm ordering more for our basement parties!"

"After doing my homework online, I decided to wait for this black light, and it was worth it! It turned my master bedroom into a glow-in-the-dark paradise. Even though it’s only a 2-foot bulb, it lit up my entire room, bringing my glow-in-the-dark posters to life. It's like having the galaxy at my fingertips!"

"I had to request a replacement because the first unit arrived with a broken bulb. However, the second unit has impressed me. I use it for identifying pigments in my work as an art conservator, and it does the job perfectly. While I wish the cord was a bit longer, this product is definitely a great value!"

"I got this light to install over a UV tapestry in my 16-year-old daughter's newly decorated bedroom. She wanted a dark, trippy aesthetic, so I painted her room pesto bismal pink and added chandelier lights. This light and the tapestry are her favorite things! Installation was a breeze, and the light remains cool even after being on 24/7!"

"These lights get a bit warm, but nothing compared to traditional incandescent bulbs. They are exceptionally bright and perfect for showcasing fluorescent paints and plastics."

"I love the frame and ledge that support this light. It's lightweight, easy to mount, and has a low heat output. It's been on for two weeks straight and works perfectly for a teenager's room or even for plants!"

"I recently got the Onforu 2 Pack 50W LED Black Lights, and they have truly exceeded my expectations! These lights are a game-changer for creating an awesome atmosphere at dance parties and Halloween events. The build quality is outstanding, and the waterproof rating makes them perfect for outdoor use. The brightness and coverage are impressive, illuminating everything from fluorescent posters to body paint. Plus, the setup is a breeze—just plug them in and go! I also love how energy-efficient they are. On top of that, the customer service was excellent; they quickly addressed my questions. I can’t recommend these lights enough!"

"These lights worked perfectly for my Halloween cemetery lighting. I didn’t need anything too large, and they were just the right size to illuminate everything nicely. I was really pleased with their performance!"

"While these lights seemed to do well initially, they ran too hot for my comfort. After only 20 minutes, they were too hot to touch, so I decided to unplug them and return them. I just didn't feel they were safe to use."

"I really love how this turned out in my room. I’m so happy with the product that I purchased more! There’s a lot of light, and the adhesive is strong enough to be moved easily while still sticking. However, it does ruin paint."

"I enjoy the way they look installed. They’re bright enough for us to easily see scorpions at night in the desert, making it safer. They were a bit tricky to bend around corners, but they’ve stayed in place well and have lasted a long time. The only downside is they cause the wall paint to peel, so we’ll need to repaint once they’re removed."

"I’ve bought this twice now. The reaction to UV art is very rich, and installation is straightforward. It’s been a great addition to my projects!"

"I found these little bad boys to be SUPER BRIGHT! Even with glow-in-the-dark paint, they work amazingly well. I keep mine on for hours, and they don't get super hot, which is a relief since I worry about fire hazards."

"I ordered these for my daughter's room. They may feel a little cheap, but they look and work great, so I don't mind. Plus, they come with everything needed to mount them on the wall!"

"Unfortunately, I had a terrible experience with these lights. They flickered uncontrollably and then went out completely. I couldn't troubleshoot the issue, and they ended up being useless. However, I appreciated the seller's quick response in helping me with a refund."

"I got this for a black light activated tapestry. It works great and lights up the tapestry beautifully. It's not too large, so it fits perfectly in my room, making it a backlit tapestry cave whenever I want!"

"I purchased this to illuminate a Halloween shower curtain. It creates an eerie blue feel in the bathroom and was easy to assemble. I'm very happy with how it turned out!"

"This was a hit at my son's neon sleepover party! Setup was simple, and it worked wonderfully. The kids thought it was so cool, and it really added to the fun atmosphere!"

“I found these to work great for my needs. They are a bit brighter than old fluorescent blacklights, but they still make everything glow wonderfully. Installation was a breeze, and they seem to be well-made.”

“For our Halloween booth, I was concerned about the lighting since it was in the early afternoon. However, these black lights did an excellent job illuminating the area, even with only two sides of our canopy covered. I’m really impressed!”

“I used these for a glow worship event at church, and they exceeded my expectations! The build quality is decent, and they come with mounting brackets for a more permanent setup. The kids had a blast with our glow hockey table!”

"I absolutely love these lights in my classroom and for kids' church activities. They were easy to set up, and their small size makes storage a breeze. The cord length is decent too!"

"I was torn between this option and UV LED flood lights, but I ultimately went with these. They suit my needs better, providing a more even spread of light without overwhelming intensity. Plus, the 5-foot cord and on/off switch are super convenient!"

"For our Awana Clubs' 'glow nights', these lights are a hit! The kids love them, and they are incredibly easy to use and effective. They light up the room perfectly!"

"I was amazed at how well these lights worked. They made all the colors in my living room and dining room super bright. Just a heads up, they do get a little hot, so I made sure to keep them out of the way."

"I bought this light as a last resort to remove turmeric stains from my carpet. I read that curcumin is sensitive to light, and to my surprise, it worked wonderfully! It also serves as a great black light for my chemistry lessons. The handle isn't fully swiveling, but it was still manageable. For the price, it's quite a decent buy!"

"I didn't have high expectations given the price, but these lights have truly exceeded them. I'm using them for my reef tank and they make the coral really pop! Just remember, they do get quite hot, so avoid touching them while they're on."
