Over last 20+ years every new product we've invested time/money in R&D, and manufactured,
or acquired from others, was always first something that I'd personally wanted for my own use.
That has again been the driver exploring & searching for a UVC device that could confidently
inactivate the CoronaVirus. Our goal was to minimize the risk of bringing surface contaminated
anything physical into, and onto, the premises of our business and homes here.
This would include food packaging from the local grocery, and even outside surfaces decon of
fruits and vegetables. Also, sacks from the feed store, either for our livestock or dogs, and any
supplies from hardware or other local suppliers or retailers. Packages and mail via USPS, UPS,
FedEx, etc. Also, paper money or coinage change and after any handing over of, or own use of,
credit cards. And, possibly, even experimenting extending the usage life of PPE, like masks and
eye protection. And, of course, if ever we have to care for a loved one stricken by this virus, the
ability to be able to confidently decontaminate their designated living spaces will be essential, too.
What our research revealed is that an 8800 Microwatts dose is what is required to inactivate the
CoronaVirus. Dose is figured similar to radiation dose, you take the lamp intensity X's distance
X's exposure time. To confirm, we asked a top virologist, a name most here would likely know, if
this 8800 Microwatts dose would be confidently sufficient to deactivate the CoronaVirus. He has
responded back: "Yes, The UV crosslinks DNA and RNA nucleotides to form thymine and cytosine
dimers rendering the DNA or RNA unreadable for viral replication." IOW's, virus is then neutered.
Unit we'd settled on is from the leader in the UV field, American Ultraviolet, established in 1960...
Healthcare Surface | American Ultraviolet
This UVC device, the HH-18, produces 60 Microwatts per centimeter squared at one meter. That
delivers 9600 Microwatts dose on a surface when distance is only 2 inches for exposure duration
of only 5 seconds. Intense enough that the company strongly recommends protective eye wear.
We have a dozen units ordered, but will only get half that initially, arriving this coming week, then
balance is 2-3 weeks away. Looks like keeping up with demand may be iffy, so I was more inclined
to just make this a group buy. MSRP is $699.00 each, your cost will be just $450, includes shipping
and one pair of their US-100 UVC safety glasses. We'll be making < 5% for our efforts processing
your orders here.
Order online at www.paypal.com sending $450 to webmaster@ki4u.com BUT ALWAYS 1st CHECK
THIS THREAD to make sure we had not already sold out this first batch of a dozen units. I'll always
update here, and with a posting down below, especially announcing when we'd sold out this initial
order. (If interest well exceeds this first dozen, I'll get firm ETA for ordering more into the pipeline.)
As of the time of this posting, 4 units already spoken for (me and 3 doctors), so that leaves 8 units
still available. If you miss out on this, it would not surprise me if there are other comparable units to
be had at competitive prices. Just be sure they both have it in-stock and it can deliver that minimum
8800 Microwatts dose in a reasonable exposure time frame. For myself, I settled on this companies
products, and stopped looking at others, after talking to the CEO at length. I'm confident this unit will
do the job required, as they are, and have been, the world leader in the UV field since 1960, as you'll
see here...
