Yes, they should be significantly more effective based on the CFD models we have so far. Replaceable bulbs, batteries, can run off USB-PD, no time limit, better coverage, tripod mount on the bottom.

It should have taken a lot less time TBH😅

Yeah, glass, non-toxic gas, a bit of metal, and a tiny bit of plastic I can probably make out of something biodegradable later...

Pic of the new replaceable bulb for the Torch 2. No more throwing out the entire fixture each time the bulb dies (Yes, it's nuts, that's how basically all Far-UVC emitters work, yes, the industry likes it this way). It should really drive the price of Far-UVC through the floor.

Yep! That's pretty much what it means😊

This is Far-UVC. It's well tested on humans, but always good to jump at the opportunity to see if you can get it to do anything to other biology.

Woohoo Sciencing!

The fine folks at @nukit.bsky.social sent me this new excimer lamp (222nm deep UVC) to test in my mutagenesis experiments! Stay tuned for more spicy light advenutres. 🌶🔦🦠🌱🧬

After a year+ of procrastinating, I've finally put together @nukit.bsky.social's Tempest air purifier, inspired by the fact I'm desperately trying to avoid my partner's COVID. 😭

Anyway, it's sleek as hell and runs so, so quiet. I particularly like the handles built into the top panel.

Our unusual customer in New York🫣 posted this to their Instagram and X (fortress_nyc).

It seems they are pushing their Far-UVC and IAQ measures hard. Hopefully, customers will find it compelling, and other local businesses will do the same.

All set! Sorry for the trouble😊

No, we think the same and advise accordingly- ventilation and filtration first😊

We had an unusual customer in New York City🫣😅

I'm glad they will have better protection now for their workers and visitors. Hopefully, more companies will do the same...

He's going to try Far-UVC and see if it makes mutants!

(But seriously, the best way to test Far-UVC is to try and see if you can find a way to make it do bad things, not to try and prove it doesn't.)

Mmmm, forward mutagenesis. Doing a large experiment testing out my new UVC Death Beam irradiator head, with 25 watts of 254nm UVC power (+/- heat). Looking forward to more freaky plants soon!

Zapped 700 seeds and hoping for 231 candidates across the seven dosages. 🌶️🔦🧬🧌🌱

European countries have their own customs clearance costs that we cover🙂 All that has to be calculated...

If you want to play with 222nm Far-UVC and see if it does something weird we're happy to donate a unit?

It's on the boat now, should arrive in two weeks. Still figuring out the price based on tarrifs and all that.

Mockup of how the Tempest Pro works with its VESA mount stacked on an Autopole using off-the-shelf hardware. Nearly silent, massive CADR in a small footprint for events and location work.

It should be in the warehouse in about two weeks...
