-A WPP device consists of a base, reaction module and reactor driver. The base houses the photon source and cooling fan. The reaction module consists of a reaction chamber and vessel holder. A digital driver board, analog driver board or simple circuit integrating a commercial light emitting diode (LED) driver can be fitted to the base to drive the reactor. Each component is highly versatile, and apparatus is fully modular.

## Safety
-The Wisconsin Photoreactor is for use by trained chemistry researchers and should be handled carefully.
+The Wisconsin Photoreactor is for use by trained chemists.
WPP apparatuses utilize high-intensity light emitting diodes (LED) that can cause eye damage if proper safety precautions are not observed.
Light-filtering safety glasses should be worn whenever a WPP apparatus photon source is powered.
Care must be taken to use safety glasses protective against the specific emission wavelengths of a photon source.
