Best small, cheap, and awesome UV flashlight?

Looking for recommendations for compact, effective, and inexpensive options for UV flashlights for quick lume charging.

Don’t want a $500 flashlight for camping in the desert. Just want to charge up some watch lume in two seconds.

What do you guys use?

Thanks in advance.

Seems like you can find them pretty cheap on Amazon. Like $10 cheap.

This'll do the job.

Fenix E05. Keyring light.... about £15.
We have 5 of them.

(there's probably a new version...see Fenix USA website

The Fenix E01 V2.0 AAA Flashlight emits an impressive maximum 100 lumens from an included single AAA battery. Using an ultra-thin optical lens, this flashlight delivers a soft and balanced beam a max distance of 115ft (35m). Access three brightness levels with a quick twist of the head. At only 2.6” long and just over a half of an inch round, this little flashlight is built tough with an IP68 dustproof and waterproof rating. Super small and compact, this standard AAA battery flashlight is a great choice for your everyday carry needs.)
