It appears to me the laser diode in a blu ray player might work fine
for this application. The output is 405nm which is closer to UV than
blue and is the same value as the uv leds that folks have been making
into exposure units. HD-dvd players are dirt cheap now. And there is
an occaisonal sale of the bluray laser and sled for a ps3 on fleabay
for about 50 bucks if I recall.
