UV Monkey - U V Index Tester
The UV Monkey is a clever little gadget has a chemical compound in its core which changes colour to indicate the strength of the UV intensity in the suns rays - the stronger the colour, The stronger the UV radiation.
Why Use a UVmonkey?
The UV Monkey can help to keep you and your family safe in the sun as well indicating the effectiveness of any solar powered gadgets. The UVmonkey is also very easy to use, just compare the colour at the centre with the colours in the outer ring.
How does the UVmonkey work?
At the centre of the UVmonkey it has a special chemical which reacts to the levels of UV from the sun. The darker the centre goes, the stronger the UV. This will then give a good indication if the solar strength is good enough to charge your solar device or if you just need to apply some sun cream!
You shouldn't leave your UVmonkey out in the sun as prolonged exposure can cause the chemical to stay dark.
