Hypochondriacs rejoice! Technology has got your back.
“This cell phone-sized disinfectant light is the first to use UV-C light and nanotechnology (the science of manipulating matter smaller than 1/10,000 of a millimeter) to eliminate 99.99% of E-Coli, staphylococcus, salmonella, and germs that cause the flu and the common cold. The light uses the same UV technology found in hospitals to sterilize surgical instruments, allowing you to disinfect workplace keyboards or telephones, as well as items in the home that sustain germ vitality such as toothbrushes and cutting boards.”
The light can disinfect a surface in 10 seconds when held 1/4″ to 4″ away - which seems fairly impractical when you think about it. Today’s modern germaphobe doesn’t have time to wave a tiny light over a surface for ten seconds.
The Handheld Germ Eliminating Light is available from Hammacher Schlemmer for $79.95.
