Feel a lot safer using this with 99.9% cleaning rate.
I got a little tired of using and cleaning my daily personal items with sanitizer so when I saw this , I just had to get it. With the current pandemic and environment, we need all the extra help we can get and this little portable UV bag does just that. The other reason is because I hate to throw away my masks after just one or two uses and wanted something to clean as well as disinfect so I can at least re-use the same mask a couple more times at least. Although these UV bags are a little pricey nowadays, I do think that it will save me money over time and definitely worth the price for a little extra safety measure.<br /><br />So this is an Ultraviolet C or UVC with with a 260-280 nm wavelength, these type of UV lights are also useful in germicidal irradiation, in other words,  a method to kill or inactivate microorganism by disrupting their DNA and destroying their nucleic acids. So by placing phones, keys, masks or other items into this bag and turn on the disinfection function and timer, I feel a lot better using or reusing my personal items after each surface cleaning and disinfecting process is completed. At the same time, I am not letting my guards down, I still wash my hands with soaps as often or as needed and practicing all the recommended CDC safety protocols as well.<br /><br />Setting up this is very easy, after removing the bottom plate and metal shelf out of the box, just pull the sides of the bag and it will pop up. Connect the red and black wires from the bag to the bottom tinfoil and reflection plate accordingly and slowly place the plate onto the bottom of the bag without pulling the wires too much that it may damage the wirings. Once done, flip the tinfoil flap from the top of the bag to cover the visible wires on the side of the bag. Place the metal shelf onto the bottom of the bag, place your items on the shelf, close the lid and zip up. Plug in the USB cable press the ON button and it should automatically turn itself off in about 5 minutes once the surface cleaning and disinfecting process is done, and that should be it. There is a little peep window at the front of the bag that you can see when the UV lights are on or off.  A must have tool to fight with this pandemic.
