The BPI UV
Activator™, product code 109517, is a dual-purpose
device which can be used as a visual demonstration of the
effectiveness of UV blocking lenses and also to activate
photochromic lenses with ultraviolet light of intensity
similar to that in sunlight. The UV light source is
discreetly baffled inside the black metal box away from the
direct view of the user. It illuminates a white target which
fluoresces brightly in the presence of UV light. A
UV-blocking lens will leave a dark shadow on the fluorescent
target. Photochromic lenses will be darkened by the UV light
at much the same rate as they would be by natural sunlight.
Lenses may be evaluated while still in the frames.
