I have a germicidal cabinet for erasing EPROMs.  In it's original life,
it was a goggle cabinet for a high school metal shop.  Big racks in it
for a whole classroom full of goggles, and lined inside with mirrors. 
And an interlock, of course.

I never really need to erase the quantity of EPROMs it is capable of.
