Blast UV™ is a portable yet extremely powerful UV-C disinfector. Up to 100,000 times more efficient than a regular 99.9% UV-C sanitizer or wet wipes! In SGS and Harrens Lab tests, the strong UV-C Dose inactivated 99.9921% of Human Coronavirus 229E (recommended surrogate for COVID-19) and killed 99.999999% of S. Aureus in just 5 minutes, thanks to 3 gold-plated sapphire LEDs and ultra-reflective lining. A transparent platform suspends your stuff so it’s exposed 360˚, so you don’t need to flip it over. It fits small and big objects; when folded, it’s the size of a wallet. Perfect for on-the-go.
