All the black lights give off the same light, it's just they come in different styles. The above linked guide pictures three popular styles, all which I own. The first two flashlight styles are the best for collectors. My personal favorite it is the little LED flashlight style, but as long as it's a UV black light it will give off the light you need. The reason I don't recommend the light bulb to card collectors is a plugged in lamp isn't as convenient or portable and doesn't direct the light like a flashlight. The bulb would work, it wouldn't be a waste of money, but it's really meant for stuff like fluorescent posters and Halloween decorations. The reason the bulb is pictured is part of the guide shows how to make glow in the dark art and crafts.
