DIY Black Light Rental for Glow Party

Additional information

Lighting Factors

Keep all lights off and block out any windows with construction paper and tape to get the best results. Slightly angle fixtures to get a nice wide coverage for larger spaces. You can place these fixtures on the ground and use the lights handle to give it a slight elevation.

We recommend reserving a light tripod & attachment to get the BEST effect. When you raise these lights 6+ feet it results in a greater UV projection, better spread, & optimal control.

Use multiple fixtures to even room coverage. To determine how many blacklights to rent please view our ‘quantity estimator’ tab. For the best experience, incorporate neon bracelets and attire. When you follow the steps above you get best glow effect for any school dance or private party.

Easy Setup Instructions

How to setup neon black lights for glow party

With Stand and Plunger (helps elevate fixture to cover more space & control beams)
1.) Widen tripod stand by loosening the side knob and pulling the legs out to form a wider base.
2.) Once you have the legs pulled to the right width (approximately 2 feet), then you can re-tighten the bolt (don’t over tighten)
3.) Attach plunger by sliding over top of light stand (it should be a tight fit)
4.) To attach the light you unscrew the top nut, slide the lighting bracket on the screw, and screw the nut back on (sandwiches the bracket in-between the two nuts)
5.) Plug black light rentals in with power cord between the fixture and outlet
6.) Neon glow light powers on
7.) Aim your blacklights in the desired position (use the side bracket to adjust the angle)

Setup on Floor (no stand or plunger)
1.) Plug UV lights in with power cord between the fixture and outlet
2.) Neon glow light powers on
3.) Place fixture on the floor or table & aim your blacklights in the desired position (use the side bracket to adjust the angle)
