[Lausanne] looking for a blacklight

Does anyone know where in Lausanne a blacklight can be found? This also might be referred to as a UV light or maybe even a "Wood's lamp". They're pretty common in North American dorm rooms, empty bars, and Spencer's gift stores although they do have some practical applications in medicine and security.
I'm looking for a standard bulb/fitting for an E27 socket, although leads on a fluorescent fixture or otherwise would also be appreciated.

You could probably find one at Hornbach, near IKEA in Aubonne.

Check maps.google.ch of how to get there by car, otherwise sbb.ch for the train route. Not sure whether to get off at Aubonne and catch a bus or whether there is a closer station.

Re: [Lausanne] looking for a blacklight

There's a store just south of Bar Tabac that stocks decks, Light systems, electronic components, and various other bits and bobs. They might be able to sort you out.

I think the street is Rue de la Grotte, and the store may or may not be called Dupertis Electronics.

I'll check it out tomorrow and let you know.

Edit:
It appears it is called Dupertis. Their website says they don't have any UV lamps in stock, but it's probably worth giving them a call anyway as I doubt it's updated all that regularly.
