Basic Cell Phone UV Light Sanitizer Box | Patented and Clinically Proven 360 Degree UV Light Sanitizer | (White)

I was initially skeptical about the claim that light alone could sanitize a phone especially given the price of the device, and I knew verifying its effectiveness wouldn’t be straightforward. So, I decided to test it myself. Using sterile gloves and cotton swabs, I prepared three agar dishes: one as a control (untouched), one swabbed from my phone before cleaning (pre-cleaning), and one swabbed after using the PhoneSoap device. After incubating the dishes for five days, the results were clear. To my surprise, the device performed significantly better than I expected. Edit: the dots seen in the control and post dishes are either imperfections in the gel or the surface behind it. It’s not bacteria, only the one labeled “pre” had bacteria.

Someone else's review mentioned that this works well for erasing EPROMS so I thought I'd give it a try. I've erased 40 EPROMS with this. About half erased in 20 minutes. The other review mentioned 10 minutes but that wasn't working for me. The machine shuts off after 10 minutes. So I set a 10 minute timer. After 10 minutes, I'd open and close the lid to turn it back on. About 80% of the EPROMS would erase when in the device for 30 minutes. Some EPROMS took multiple tries to completely erase. I might still pickup an EPROM eraser from China but many of the reviews site issues. This machine gets the EPROMS erased. Persistence was needed for a few of the stubborn EPROMS.

Good design, seemingly well made, but there is no on/off switch. It is designed to turn on when the lid is opened/ closed. My unit would not turn on unless it was unplugged, then plugged back in. This is a known issue, and their website says to return it for replacement. They want tons of information: model number, color, batch number, etc., etc. before issuing an RMA. Returning it to Amazon was much simpler. Update: Amazon's replacement works fine! I have to subtract a star because of the unnecessary cycles. When you remove the sanitized item, the action of opening/closing the unit kicks off another cycle. Why not a "start" button? These bulbs are expensive, and have a limited life span.

A good item to sanitize your cell phone. Does the trick in about 5 minutes.

Does not work. Lights comes but does not clean my cell phone. I have tried many times but wil not clean or tell me how to fix it Got scammed again. A complete rip off.

UV still working after many months of use. Need to do an Petri dish test to see if it makes a difference but, I’m sure it’s killing something! No phone charging capabilities in this one, but c’mon, do you really need that for a 10 minute UV bath?

Amazing! I saw this on Shark Tank years ago. I knew I wanted one right away. I love the way I can just place my phone or keys in there and just forget it. That is it. I know it will be cleaned and sanitized. I think the value for the money is excellent. It is not small but not huge either. It will safely disinfect any of your everyday items. The bonus is that it is a pretty pearl color.

Love it. This is the third one I buy. It has 2 light strips. One on the top, one on the bottom. The light strip runs all the length of the machine.
