A Bright Way To Sanitize?

The dust has settled and the First 72 Hours have passed. Follow along as I build a long term plan via Prudent Prepping.

This is another quick post on an unusual item seen in the stores I call on. I found this on display in most of the Home Depot stores I see in my rounds.

Ion UV Sanitizing Tool Bag

From the webpage:

UV-C LED technology that gets the job done and done exceptionally well. The Tzumi ion UV Tool Bag is a specially designed UV sterilizing bag that disinfects all your tools and/or job site items in as little as 10-minutes. All it takes is 1-click for the ion UV Tool Bag to achieve a 99.9% sterilization efficiency rate.

• Portable, compact and lightweight
• Built-in safety shutdown feature
• No radiation, ozone or chemicals used - just pure UV-C light
• 1 touch operation
• 1200 mAh rechargeable battery
• Includes: micro USB cable

You may be wondering how much UV is actually produced in the bag. I have to say that I don't know, but in a very short hands-on test with a co-worker's light sensitive glasses, there was enough UV to start changing the lenses in less than a minute.

I don't need a sanitizing bag for the work I do, but possibly someone else might want to give it a try.

Oh, the best part? These are all on Clearance here in the San Francisco Bay Area. Check your local stores for the following sku numbers:

• Internet #315256258
• Model #7858HD
• Store SKU #1005991067

Recap And Takeaway

• I did not buy this bag, but you might want to hurry. The Ionizing Tool Bag started out at $39.99, but is now (at least in Northern California) $7.99!
• Nothing was purchased this week, but I still have a backlog of reviews.
