This was an yet another glorious episode from veritasium.
I hope we get well past UVC LEDs. (i.e., shorter wavelengths) UV LEDs are already available. Unfortunately, this progress will stop before X-ray light. With +1 KeV energy, you pretty much must blast off the electrons from the atoms to emit X-rays, which an x-ray tube already does. Or by peeling off a piece of scotch tape.
Maybe not in a flashlight, but the scientific industry would be very pleased with them. Sterilize water and all surfaces in a second? Flash with 200nm light.

Maybe making X-ray emitters cheap enough to put in a flashlight isn’t the best idea anyway.

Handheld battery powered X-ray devices exist and are widely available. I used to work with those. In Germany you need a permit to operate them. https://www.thermofisher.com/order/catalog/product/de/en/XL2
How about cheap enough to put in a fleshlight?
If you have a bone in your penis, you may not be fully human.
Otherwise, don’t x-ray your penis.
Good advice, but I put a Kleenex in my urethra for safekeeping and I’d love to track it down to get it out again.
/c/flashlight sends its regards
Sorry sir I have no idea what you are talking about
