@ozzelot @NanoRaptor different groups as well. in two cases it was the orgas going "we're smart, we can do our own lighting right?!", then buying the suspiciously cheapest UV tubes they found. in the other case they hired the cheapest cowboys out there on short notice, who also bought the suspiciously cheapest UV tubes they could find.

worth noting that, in all cases, the tubes were clearly marked as UV-C.
