I could hardly believe it when I saw this video about UV lights show up on UA-cam because I had just been wondering about them. That same day I had told my husband that the air purifier in our room needed new UV light bulbs. Soon after I started wondering just how effective UV lights are. Thank you so much for answering my questions.
@donettaschroeder5895 our devices are listening to us! Anytime I need to talk about a private issue, I take my phone out of the room because no matter what I'm talking about, when I log in later to the phone or laptop, there will be a related add or video or link.
Without using a testing device it may not be UVC since just UV does not kill anything it is just purple light. This was a lousy report as it kind of missed that key element. UV is not the same as UVC.
A while back, I got a letter from PhoneSoap saying that the FDA is forcing PhoneSoap to discontinue their wand(SurfaceSoap). PhoneSoap told me to return it and get a replacement which is something like that box.
I bought a UV toothbrush case. I'm hoping it works, but even if it doesn't, the fact that it's still a case means it'll at least stop particals from landing on it when I'm NOT using it.
You can tell the real germicidal UV-C lights by the type of bulb, the wavelength and the power output. First off, the cheap LEDs DO NOT WORK! The best cost effective solution is the low-pressure mercury vapor lamps. These are similar in technology as neon lights but with a different gasses. The mercury vapor emits germicidal ultraviolet light at 253.7nm (254nm) and is not visible to the eye. The blue color you see is usually emitted by the Xenon gas which is only included to stabilize and make the tube more efficient. This bulb also has to be powerful enough to be effective. We sell a 5 watt rechargeable wand which we thinks is the minimum power to make the sanitizer effective with convenient treatment times. It is fast to use and covers more than twice the area than the handheld shown in the video. The battery operated unit shown in this video is rated at 2 watts, has a 3 1/4" long dual tube, and does not offer much power or have much treatment area making it inconvenient to use, especially for larger objects. We also have a specially designed collapsible box to place your items to be sanitized that works with our 5W wand. By placing items in the box, bacteria, viruses and mold are destroyed by both the UV-C and the small and safe amount of ozone created by it. There are LED's that are being developed emitting a wavelength of 222nm which is an effecting germicidal and also safe to humans, but the cost is prohibitive and no consumer products use them.

@@superbmediacontentcreator Yep UVC Light is very dangerous to skin and eyes so REAL UVC lights will have warnings all over the product, and the LEDS that actually work fort UVC are very expensive, about $25-40 each LED so anything that claims to be real UVC LEDS and is under $50 will definitely be a fake....
I’m curious about the THEORETICAL use of these for emergency water treatment. Can they kill Giardia? Cryptosporidium? Let’s say I have a really bad hurricane, am in desperate need of water, and boiling isn’t an option for whatever reason… how effective could this theoretically be? What about aquarium UV-C lights!
Yes uvc light would kill these. The wand may not be the most practical but you could turn if on, wrap it in a ziplock bag and submerge it in the water for a sufficiently long duration.

These low power devices are going to work in a matter of seconds as they say. Normally, it would take about 20 to 30 minutes to be effective. If you want an effective UVC sanitizer, you would need to purchase one of the commercial units for about $150. These units can put out about 45 Watts of UV light. You definitely will have to wear gloves and protective glasses to use it!
@@vmobile890 Yes, this is correct! Initially, the UV fluorescent light interacts with oxygen in the air to form ozone, which is itself is a health risk. Not the case with UV LEDs though.
Umm proof the average are obsolete , and ignorant. This method has only been in use since 1920 something , and no one has ever bothered to ask why not use it on a larger scale.

But Trump mentions UV and media go crazy, Trump also mentions chlorine Dioxide and media say its bleach which it isn't, Sodium Hypochlorite is bleach. Saying it's the same is like saying Carbon Dioxide is the same as Carbon monoxide because both have carbon in it. People are so gullible and media know it and are having a laugh at people's expense.

Powerful ones are dangers. Those tower ones with a timer or ozone with a time . And run out of the room . The power that it takes to ionize formaldehyde is more then oxygen
@@Chrakaphrat 12 hours is a bit excessive. If the objective is to create toxic gas like o3 to get in the nooks there are cheaper ways , uvc in my opinion 1 hour ( straight line of sight decontamination) 1 hour for up to dust mite size killing power
What a waste of time these would be. You still gotta use wipes and chemicals on counters and tables and lots of other large surfaces. Youd be there a year just cleaning 1 room of your house. I wasted 2 bucks on 1 but it came with a nice long charging cable that works on my phone and other devices. So cool cool cool for that! 😁

Don't even say that! Many people will believe it and try it. It is anti-life. It is a killer. You do not want it on your body. The professionals that installed one in my attic HVAC warned me that her technician accidentally looked at it and it burned into his eyes. Had to rush him to the Emergency Room. Very dangerous. Do NOT put it on your body. Do NOT look at the light.
If you examine the video, he took the lids off while treating with UV. Granted, I give him a little credit because has worked at Environment Laboratories for over 31 years and is their Lab Director.
You are very smart and exactly what I was thinking. This reporter and her station are a joke as they have no idea what news is as she didn't even mention that it is UVC and not simply purple UV light.

@@superbmediacontentcreator In a way, you’re absolutely right. The low intensity ones probably do work, but it would take 30 minutes to about an hour to actually kill the bacteria. if you’re going to purchase a UVC light, it better to go with the certified commercial grade that can cost $150-$300. These lights can put out about 40W of energy and much more effective in a short amount of time.
So typical lousy local news work which does not discriminate between UV and UVC. All in search of ratings but a young reporter just buries the lead since she does not know what news is. Also, a news director that does not know what news is and has no idea what to even ask to help their reporters. Just more crappy work which is why the media gets such a bad rap.
