The '''UV Lamp''', obviously, is apparently a luxurious item, since it gives you a tan; therefore, it was not needed to be retrieved in order for [[Captain Olimar|Olimar]] to get off the planet. It is found at the [[The Distant Spring|Distant Spring]] and is placed high upon a ledge accessible only by [[Yellow Pikmin]], and you must go through a maze to get to it. Just swarm your Pikmin against the narrow land space, and travel against the [[Wall Glitches|wall]] so your Pikmin do not fall. Then throw your Pikmin up to the ledge, and they will carry it. Make sure you have defeated the [[Spotty Bulbear|Spotty Bulbears]] in the area. Captain Olimar says that the UV Lamp is so bright that he has to wear a sun visor just to look at it. It's also great for tanning, but it doesn't have a relation to the [[S.S. Dolphin|Dolphin's]] flight capabilities. He says that he doesn't need this part, and thinks there are more like this one in the area. This is also where the [[Gherkin Gate]] is located in Pikmin 2.

The UV Lamp (UVランプ?, lit.: "UV Lamp") is a ship part in Pikmin. Captain Olimar says that the UV Lamp is so bright that he has to wear a sun visor just to look at it. It's great for tanning, but it doesn't have a relation to the S.S. Dolphin's flight capabilities, making it an optional ship part. In Pikmin 2, the Gherkin Gate (Idea Assistant in Japan) is where this part was. Once recovered, this part does not change the S.S. Dolphin's appearance.

The strategies shown are just suggestions.

It is placed high upon a ledge accessible only by Yellow Pikmin, and Olimar must go through a maze to get to it. At least ten Yellow Pikmin are necessary to get the part, and the black stone wall to the right of the landing site must be destroyed with nine bomb-rocks. There is a rocky, maze-like area to the right of the torn down wall. The Pikmin should be swarmed against the walls when navigating up the pathways. They then must be thrown up onto the ledge, where they should pick up the part. Spotty Bulbears and Dwarf Bulbears might be in the way of the Pikmin carrying the part back if they haven't been defeated.

Notes

Olimar's monologs

I've found my UV Lamp!

The only problem with this handheld light is that it can be too bright at times. I have to remember to wear my sun visor whenever I look into it.


This handy light is great for tanning...but it doesn't seem to have any relation to the Dolphin's flight capabilities. I doubt that it will affect my escape from this planet. Perhaps there are other parts like this as well.
