The next step is to mount the UV source in the bread box. Some things we took into account here is the placement of the light source. We want the lighting in the box to be as even as possible. We mounted ours at the top of the breadbox using some hot glue to get a good strong instant bond, and then used silicone to permanently mount it.



The next step is to connect the power source to the light. This is a simple process of just plugging it in. We used some hot glue to secure the wire on the side of the bread box.


The next step is to line the bottom of the bread box with tinfoil or even possibly a mirror and depending on the type of breadbox you are using any other place that may need to be reflective inside the breadbox. Using some spray on glue and spraying on the glue to the tin foil its self it’s easy to install in the box. Additionally we took a normal baking rack and cut the ends off of it so that it would fit in the bread box. This allows for the UV to get under the bread in the box. We secured it in place with a couple good blobs of hot glue.



To prevent the buildup of heat inside the breadbox and thus accelerate the molds growth we will be using our home security outlet. This will randomly turn on and off the light system in 7 to 35 minute increments. To install it just plug the power supply brick in.


So here is a quick test to show the rig is working well for us. we threw the marker in it because the cap phosphorescing in it.
