This seems like a great use case for an old smartphone that still works.

    I guess thanks for the listing of a phone that is unavailable and doesn't exist at that price? Here is the full list of all the Moto G phones at Best Buy--> http://www.bestbuy.com/site/searchpage.jsp?st=Moto+G&_dyncharset=UTF-8&id=pcat17071&type=page&sc=Global&cp=1&nrp=&sp=&qp=&list=n&iht=y&usc=All+Categories&ks=960&keys=keys http://www.bestbuy.com/site/searchpage.jsp?st=Moto+G&_dyncha... Prices start at $99 and the model you linked to is really $179.

      It was just an illustration, I wasn't meaning for you to go buy it. I don't know enough about phone prices to be able to say whether that's a normal price or not. I used it as an illustration because I have picked up plenty of smart phones on sale at Best Buy. Most recently the Moto E for about $20 on sale.

  Seems like there should be an option to use any light source. Why is it specific to a phone?

    Because the phones screen is what shapes the print..

Are we sure it is sensitive to ALL forms of light? If the plastic bottle reflects UV, and the material is UV sensitive it could make rational sense. Although I'll grant I am pulling theories out of thin air. I have no idea if this product is even real let alone how the material/bottle works.

  Except that then your smartphone screen would need to emit UV light, which it doesn't.
