My step dad bought 3 of those UV light germ killer things for the bedrooms. Almost $100 each. Wtf do they even do?

He’s found too many of your jizz rags around the house

I thought those were germ tanning beds since they're too small for a spray tan

Those things are really dangerous. They were installed in Cobb County schools during Covid, and the teachers damn near had to actually come back to work because of them. Sure, one of them was finally able to sabotage the system and the lights ended up getting ripped out, but it was a really close call.

The theory is that light in the 210-215 nm range will kill pathogens while bouncing harmlessly off human skin.

I travel with one...use it in hotel rooms. Hope it works, otherwise I am just foolish and waste time. ![](https://images.tigerdroppings.com/Images/Icons/IconLOL.gif)

Do they come with the FBI CIA NSA bug detector?

Oh ok. I haven't seen them. I honestly had no idea how they even worked. My step dad buys random shite all the time, especially tech stuff. Sometimes it's good and sometimes it's a complete waste of money

Hospital surgical areas use them including inside the air ducts. Being a department manager for a chain of 17 day surgery centers put me in meetings with plant/equipment updates from facilities management. One of the things they had to check manually was that the duct lights were back on after a power outage and systems restart.

Trump suggested these and was ridiculed, yet here we are and, once again, he's proven correct ![](https://images.tigerdroppings.com/Images/Icons/Iconusaflagsmiley.gif)

That's the goal. I think some of them are supposed to only be used in unoccupied rooms. A kind turn on, walk out, and let it do its thing deal.

Our sewage sanitation system at work uses UV lights.

No, now I only use a bidet

Do these like kill the germ on contact or is it like boiling water where it may take some time?

Probably depends on the intensity which would roughly be equal to the quality of the device.
In hospitals they have them on carts. They wheel the cart into the room, shut the door and let the light run for a few minutes.

They are supposed to expose the air to UV inside of a chamber cycling through, not expose skin and eyes to it.
