We have blacklights at my work place. Turns out the strips in the new $20 bills glow a crazy neon green. Anyway any good blacklight should not flicker. I've yet to see it.

yes blacklights give off a purple colored light.
I'm assuming the purple is a side effect of the way a cold cathode produces UV light. Cold cathodes are not neons, as they will not get warm as a neon does (or overheat if we are talking about the really poorly constructed cars) yet can produce the same lighting.
You can check out www.theneonedge.com they got some good prices on lights, i've bought some from there they are on their way right now, They distribute LiteGlow I believe
Yes, it's an Acura EL

I have red neons...no pix I'm afraid. And to go back to the original topic I have a 12" streetglow blacklight tube in my trunk, which turns on when the trunk is opened. I've got my sub bangin away about 1 foot away from it, and it's still goin strong after almost a year. It's only held up there by 3M double sided tape, too.
