I got an old xenon bulb from my dad, he salvaged it from some sort of old broken machine. So I tried to turn it on with a sketchy Chinese high voltage power supply, the light was very intense. Luckily I only turned it on for short amount of time because my dad saw what I was doing and told me that the bulb probably emits UV light and possibly small amounts of x-rays😅 Luckily I didn’t have any side effects from the UV because my exposure was very brief.

After my third time burning my eyes with the same bulb in 2 weeks not knowing what was happening, this explains it all.i was dumb and didnt think I'd need eye protection for the very short time I was exposed, about 2 minutes spread over 7 hours. These things arent for kids or the unknowing. Wear ppe always

Yes, UVC can only sterilise things it comes into direct contact with, a bit like how water can only wet things it comes into contact with. This is why the ozone-producing UVC lamps such as the one in my video can be a bit more effective because the ozone spreads throughout the whole room, onto shaded areas, under beds and in places the light doesn't reach. But ozone has its own risks too.

@scootermom1791

I've been reading some scholarly articles about UVC light and found out the light doesn't even penetrate dust! So surfaces have to be wiped down, to begin with, for it to be effective. Same with Hydrogen peroxide. You have to spray it on an already clean surface and leave it for several minutes before it effectively kills germs. Like this guy said, go with the UVC + ozone option.

HI, really enjoyed the review. Can i use some ofnthr clips from this video for a UVC toilet project im working on?

I've actually got this same bulb; Coospider. The amount of Ozone it outputs isn't actually enough to properly shock a room- you'd have to have the bulb running for 12-24 hours to get the amount of ozone needed to kill odors instead of just temporarily masking it. Ozone also inhibits UVC, so you actually get less UVC radiation with ozone as opposed one that's been doped with ozone-blocker.

This is a great review! I was thinking of adding a few of these to my crawlspace under the house. I think I will do that.

It's my understanding that first, uvc light can't penetrate dust or dirt. Hidden mold wouldn't be affected by the light because the surfaces that are keeping it hidden would not be penetrated. And second, the closer the uvc light is to the bacteria, virus or fungi, the more effective it is. It appears that distances more than 5 feet from the light aren't affected by the light as shown in other videos on KZread.

Every germicidal lamp on the market recommends to vent the room for 30-60 mins after using the lamp because it creates ozone, and it's harmful to breathe. Safest bet is to get a lamp with a wavelength between 240-280 nm, anything below 240 nm will create ozone. However, many UV bulbs will have fluctuating wavelength, so even if it's supposed to be above 240 nm, it still may drop below 240 and create ozone. A rule of thumb, always vent the room after using UV lamps.

I don't have any timer UVC lamp by the way, but only E27 ones and I either put them in place of the standard lightbulb if I want to sterilize or deodorize an entire room or in a ordinary table or desk lamp if I want do treat individual items. And in that late case I use a remote control socket. In either case I always put a warning sign on the door telling that there's a harmful UV lamp in operation inside the room and not to open the door and when I'm running it in lieu of the standard lightbulb, obviously the room light switch is controlling the germicidal lamp, so I also put a second warning sign telling not to try turning the light on like we're all used to, because it will hurt your eyes.

UVA and UVB are used on human skin to try to resolve cases of eczema and psoriasis but UVC isn't used suggesting it's too dangerous although it's shorter wavelength would mean less penetration into the skin than UVA and UVB.Humans aren't adapted to UVC as it all gets absorbed in the Stratosphere.The main one we encounter is UVA but some UVB gets down to the surface particularly in the Tropics .

Is it possible to have ultraviolet rays irradiated inside a box with fans pumping air into and out of the box? Contaminated air is pumped into the box, sterilized by the UV rays, then pumped out of the box to the room where the box is located. The advantage are: 1. people can safely be in the same room with the box without the risk of being exposed to harmful ultraviolet light. 2. you can use the air-conditioner normally without worrying about temperature or circulation of air. 3. you can safely be in the room without the risk of getting infected by COVID-19 or other airborne viruses. The air inside the room is constantly sterilized by the box. The box should be small, preferably portable. Such a box does not sterilize surfaces, only the air inside a room. Surfaces should be sterilized normally with desinfectant and cloth. Right now there is no way to safely sterilize the air inside a room. You have to open the windows to ensure good circulation of air. But during the winter and summer you need to close the windows and use the air-conditioner to have an ameniable temperature inside the room. Most air-conditioners simply recirculate the existing air inside the room, instead of pumping clean air from outdoors. If someone in the room is infected and shedding viruses into the air, the air gets more and more contaminated. But a UV box that sterilizes the air while allowing the presence of people and the use of air-conditioner could be the solution.

So I suppose now that air purifiers come with similar designs to allow air to pass through whilst keeping harmful UV-C rays inside.

I would definitely choose Gal gadot saving me from the virus.

excuseme, what literature or research do you read to making this video no offens but i really need to know.

Every webpage on internet about UV-C? It is technology used for decades.

You didn't have to make it so grim 😂

How can we be sure the bulb is real UVC and not some painted scam bulb?

You will smell the Ozone it produces.

Hey you are not wearing enough protection for your body, you need to cover the skin fully, like wearing a non permeable leather or thick clothe, just wearing a t shirt is not enough, the light goes right past gaps in the weaving. This is how you get melanoma, which can very easily progress to cancer.

Yes it's dangerous indeed.

Get skin cancer Speedrun XD

only uva and uvb are dangerous, uv-c is not that agressive...just read studies

You have that confused. UVC is much more destructive to organic matter than UVA or UVB.

@@Roos-Reviews nop! Because UVA and UVB is so much stronger that ozone layer does not absorb 100% of UV-A and UV-B rays before they reach our surface... UV-C is different

The UVC bulb in my video will cause severe eye and skin damage if exposed for even just ten minutes. On the other hand, UVB and UVA bulbs are widely used for tanning and are much less damaging than UVC bulbs. Many tanning bulbs actually have UVC filters to block the UVC from reaching our skin because it is too dangerous. I don’t know why you are disputing this. It’s a very simple and widely understood science. This UVC bulb will definitely burn human skin and eyes. We are exposed to UVB and UVA every time we walk in the sun and we don’t become blind or suffer severe skin blistering every day. The Earth’s atmosphere blocks the majority of UVC from reaching us. If it did not block any UVC , we would all have to live underground otherwise we would die within a short time.

You said “only uva and uvb are dangerous”. That’s just not true. Anyway, have a good weekend.

I think this is a bit of an overreaction. Stupid government regulations. Don’t look directly at the sun, don’t look directly at this stupid thing. Get out of the room, for a while. Big deal.

This is wrong. UV-C light cannot penetrate the upper layer of the epidermis (skin). It can barely do so in the upper range of the UV-C spectrum, but not to an extent that can cause skin damage. "it is clear that the outermost layer of skin (i.e., the human stratum corneum) strongly attenuates UV-C radiation such that very little UV-C radiation reaches the germinative, basal layer of the epidermis, where the DNA would have to be altered to potentially initiate skin cancer (CIE, 2010; Barnard et al., 2020; Cadet, 2020; Forbes et al., 2020). it is clear that the outermost layer of skin (i.e., the human stratum corneum) strongly attenuates UV-C radiation such that very little UV-C radiation reaches the germinative, basal layer of the epidermis, where the DNA would have to be altered to potentially initiate skin cancer (CIE, 2010; Barnard et al., 2020; Cadet, 2020; Forbes et al., 2020)." ‎(Blatchley et al., 2022) ‎www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/10643389.2022.2084315

UV-C can cause severe sunburn though ! And let's not talk about the wonderful flash burns it can cause to eyes ! You really don't want to be in the same room as a active UV-C germicidal bulb ! Personally I use a RF remote control to turn it on and off from outside the room where it is set to disinfect various things. And no living thing stays in that room during that time.

Hello, Help Me Please there is a room where I wanted to disinfect the air in a room. Without wanting it, I entered the room, I had forgotten the light on. I just had the time to notice it and I went out quickly, I saw the lamp two or three seconds and I was exposed 5 seconds maximum at a distance of about one put, I am panicked, should I expect serious consequences? Sorry for my English, ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bonjour, Aidez moi s' il vous plait voila, il y a une pièce ou j' ai voulu désinfecter l' air dans une piece. Sans le vouloir, je suis rentré dans la pièce, j' avais oublié la lumiere allumée. J' ai juste eu le temps de m' en apercevoir et je suis vite sorti, j' ai vu la lampe deux à trois secondes et j' ai été exposé 5 secondes maximum à une distance d' un mettre environ, Je suis paniqué, est ce que je dois m' attendre à de graves conséquences ??
