The Gold Standard in Quality

Unlike other light sources, the Crime-lite 82S PRO range cuts no corners and makes no compromise, using the highest quality components to ensure the highest quality of results, increasing evidence yields and providing superior visibility for the examination and photography of evidence.

Building on a decade of dependability

With thousands of devices currently in the hands of forensic professionals, Crime-lite 82S Forensic Alternate Light Sources are recognized the world over for their powerful performance and robust construction.

Trusted by experts, the Crime-lite 82S has long been the choice of those searching for or examining body fluids or other traces of DNA; latent, powdered and chemically processed fingermarks; narcotics and illicit substances; explosives, accelerants, and gunshot residues (GSR); glass fragments; soil; fibres; and other traces of evidence that are difficult or impossible to detect with the human eye.

Goggles and Lens Filters:
Never Miss a Trace

Lightweight, interchangeable, and with anti-glare functionality, PRO VISION Viewing Goggles and Lens Filters provide a simple but effective upgrade to existing fluorescence viewing filters. Included with each of our Crime-lite 82S PRO kits, this significant upgrade will help examiners to detect more evidence through improved Fluorescence Contrast Examination.

PRO VISION PERFORMANCE

Crime-lite PRO VISION evidence viewing goggles and camera lens filters are designed with the single purpose of maximising the visibility of evidence for improved detection and photography under high-intensity illumination. All PRO VISION goggles and lenses include an anti-glare dichroic coating to prevent auto-fluorescence whilst reflecting Crime-lite illumination back onto the subject being examined.

PRO VISION CONVENIENCE

PRO VISION viewing lenses attach (via magnets) to a lightweight and comfortable goggle headset allowing the user to quickly switch between viewing wavebands on the fly. Using the magnetic quick-change lens system enables the examiner to switch between viewing wavebands quickly and easily, leading to a more efficient evidence search.

Crime-lite 82L PRO :
Unique Linear Illumination

A unique light source providing low angle surface illumination, the Crime-lite 82L produces a ‘sheet’ of variable intensity (10%, 50%, 100%) white or UV light to reveal floor level evidence.

16 high-intensity LEDs mounted behind a cylindrical lens give a wide floor level light beam that is ideal for detecting surface debris and shoe prints, coloured filters can be clipped on for increased contrast.
