You're looking for UVC lamps. Honestly, I wouldn't bother with this. The risk of exposing yourself to UVC isn't worth the convenience of sanitizing your stuff since there are simpler ways.

If you really want to be safe, just leave your groceries outside for three days. Why three? Studies say, covid survives for up to three days on plastic, which is what most groceries are packed in.

I personally leave it in my car since I hardly use it and it's much warmer than my garage.

Food items that need refrigeration can be washed with soap and water so just ensure they're properly packed when bought. You can just wipe your gadgets and other stuff with alcohol and let dry for a minute or so.

How about yung mga negative ions? Does it really work?

Gives you 2 things...No harm & a false sense of security. Most out there are likely placebos....Get the pricey 1, AirTamer, if you must.[emoji4]

hospitals have been doing it for decades.
just be sure you get "the real thing" and not the mosquito zapper-quality.
and the room should be devoid of mammals before turning it on.
heh heh.

how do we know it's the real thing? i don't know.
probably by sourcing it from knowledgeable suppliers like hospital supply stores.

No brainer for me bro. For their air purifiers, even if the ions don't work, you're still left with a good HEPA filter system.

Ah sorry sorry iba pala pinagusapan hehe. Agree with travs, no harm in trying save for the hit on the wallet. As long as you still follow best practices. Mahirap sa mga naka ganyan baka lumakas loob, di na mag social distancing.

Ang alam ko lang na scam na wearable yung Toamit. Ginamit pa ng local seller yung photo ng isang NCR mayor na gumagamit para makabenta.

Effective kaya yun mga generic na air purifier with HEPA filter and uv light sa Lazada? Sobrwng mura kasi 4k each lang. I need to purchased several units.
