What does everyone use to charge lumo flies up.
 
I have used an old camera flash in the past but don't have that anymore and have been using a torch.  The charge is not very bright and does not last long.
 
Don't want to be taking my camera to the lake as it will not last long in those conditions.

Get a small UV light, They can be bought in key ring size. Don't go pointing at your eyes, or for that matter at beehives 'cos you'll look like a giant flower and get swarmed.... Tongue
