What can i use for powerful UV radiation?

Hi im in the middle of a little science project that requires UV light and my 9W nail dryer works fine but it takes ages to get it right so i needs something more powerful. I checked around on internet and found blacklight bulbs (up to 400W) but im wondering, does it produce the same type of radiation as my nail dryer or is it somehow filtred for nightclub use? The project is about colour change so i guess i need all the harmfull stuff that it emmits. Any help?What can i use for powerful UV radiation?Those blacklights for nightclubs are pretty strong since they have to light up a huge area, and are probably a lot stronger than your nail dryer.



Blacklights are dangerous in terms of your eyes, and maybe sunburn, so read the warnings.
