Forensic P.A.L. (Personal Alternate Light)
The Forensic PAL (1006278) is a state-of-the-art portable light. Four, super-bright, blue-light-emitting diodes (LEDs) use three AA batteries and are housed in a rugged flashlight-style case. This light is powerful, yet small enough to fit into a shirt pocket. Solid-state and shockproof, the Forensic PAL has a unique design for an almost unbelievable battery life, lasting up to 300 hours without a significant decrease in power output.
Like other blue-light-emitting light sources used to visualize latent prints and other physical evidence, it is necessary for the examiner to wear orange goggles which are included in the kit. Darken the room or area, shine the light at various surfaces where physical evidence might be found. Photograph and collect the evidence. Use the PAL to see latent prints developed with fluorescent powders and dyes. Photograph them with an orange filter on the camera lens.
The estimated life of the batteries is 300 hours without a significant decrease in power output. The estimated lifetime of the LEDs is about 11 years. The Forensic PAL is waterproof to two feet and has been shocktested with a drop test of ten feet. There is a three year warranty on the unit, excluding the batteries. The unit comes in a hardside case and includes two pairs of orange goggles. The Forensic PAL is 7" long, 1"" in diameter and weighs only 5 ounces.
