ReveaLED is the first multi-wavelength UV light designed specifically with travelers in mind. Now, you’ll never wonder what exactly has gone on in that hotel bed before you arrived — if you want to know that sort of thing?

 

Germaphobes everywhere will be delighted with this unique flashlight that reveals all of any room’s darkest secrets in seconds. According to the company behind ReveaLED, multiple hotel chains don’t always change sheets for new guests. In fact, an investigative report by CNN found some bedspreads are only changed an average of four times a year. It almost makes you want to sleep in your car, huh?

 

With the ReveaLED you can be secure knowing your bed sheets are crisp and freshly cleaned with one sweep through the room. The light is able to detect bacteria, stains and even STDs left behind on hotel sheets. You can also use it to investigate the cleanliness of the bathroom, but we can’t imagine that would ever be a good idea.

 

The ReveaLED is lightweight and easy to carry at only 30 grams. It features two modes — white light and UV — and runs on a rechargeable battery. It’s turned on and off with the touch of a button and fits nicely in your pocket.

 

ReveaLED retails for $60 a piece, which isn’t a lot of money for peace of mind and a blissful, clean night of rest. Shipping is estimated to begin this month, so head over to the website to check out more information on features and ways to order.
