Now that corona is spreading again and the flu virus strikes again, it becomes important to take measures. Are you fed up with microbial scum? The PhoneSoap SurfaceSoap UV Wand makes short work of viruses and bacteria.
A vicious virus infection can mess up a lot of plans. This certainly applies to the covid-19 virus. Although this virus is mainly transmitted through the air, some contamination is also possible via surfaces.
That is why it is smart to treat surfaces that you come into contact with and where others have been, for example doorknobs, toilet seats, keyboards and remote controls. Ultraviolet (UV) light is an effective way to kill viruses and other microbes. UV light is increasingly used in industry to keep spaces clean and hygienic.
PhoneSoap SurfaceSoap UV Wand, portable powerhouse
The good news is that as a private individual it is increasingly easier to obtain affordable UV sources with which you can clean your environment. You regularly see UV lamps passing by. One of the better, but quite expensive UV lamps at around €260 (when ordered from the US, within the US you pay $200) is the PhoneSoap SurfaceSoap UV Wand. This kills 99.9% of all viruses, which makes the chance of infection much smaller.
This is possible because, with 15 mW per square centimeter, this lamp has a power 10 times as high as cheaper lamps. As a result, this lamp produces a bombardment of UV radiation, which most microbes cannot cope with. Fortunately, your hand is protected by a protective cap when you use this lamp. Given the large power, you should certainly not look into the lamp when you turn it on. Weaker, but much cheaper lamps can be obtained from Blokker, among others.
Additional technical information
Within seconds you kill 99.99% of viruses and 99.9% of bacteria. Charging this lamp, with a USB cable, takes 3 hours. When charged, you can use it for half an hour. The lamp is 35 cm long and comes with a holder.
This lamp emits dangerous UV-C radiation. So don’t look into it and don’t put your hand in the bundle.
This lamp does not protect against airborne viruses such as covid-19
NB! This UV lamp only cleans surfaces, not the air. For that you need a different type of UV lamp, the most common of which, with 253 nm UV light, is dangerous for humans. This type of lamp should therefore only be used in a room where no one is present. Of course, that danger is not there with this portable lamp, as long as you do not shine on your skin and look into it.

Do you think hygiene is important, do you want to be able to clean objects and things that touch quickly and do you have the money? Then this is an excellent UV cleaning lamp. Within a second or two or three you have disinfected a fairly large surface.
