Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of UV-c Light Wand KF-202
Customer Review: Great product - works on mold too
Summary: 5 Stars
You wonder if a product that kills germs (that you can't see) really works or is just a gimmick. I saw on the product instructions that the UV light kills mold and thought that it would be a good test to see if the wand actually works if it kills mold in our shower (Gross I know. We don't have a lot, but enough that it bugs us).
Apparently, the wand needs a lot more time to kill mold than it does to kill bacteria, so I thought if it can kill the mold we have, I'll feel better that it actually works to kill bacteria that I can't see.
We've had a little bit of mold growing in the corners of our shower and have scrubbed and scrubbed with all sorts of cleaners ever since we moved into our house a few years ago but have not been able to get rid of the mold.
So here's the test:
I set the wand down over the mold area in the shower and left it there (of course I forgot about it, so it stayed on for probably 30-45 minutes before I remembered and turned it off). I didn't have time to scrub it right then, but my wife cleaned the shower a day or two later and the mold came off where the wand was placed. The mold stayed where the wand was not placed.
I did the test again in a different location in the shower (mold area was about the size of dime, yuck). I left it there again and forgot about it, so it was probably on the spot for longer than the first test before I remembered to turn if off. Scrubbing immediately afterward didn't get the mold to come off. I then waited a day or two and scrubbed pretty good (without any cleaners) and the mold flaked off. I scrubbed the same on spot that was not covered by the light in the test and the mold remained.
So as far as I know, the wand kills mold, and if it can kill mold, it should be able to kill bacteria I'm assuming.
Description of UV-c Light Wand KF-202
UV Light technology deactivates and eliminates germs. Small and unprotected, microbes just cant stand to live in such powerful light. Many pools and cities now use UV Ray Technology to eliminate dangerous, even life threatening microbes in the water. As an added safety feature, the UV Wand lamp will turn off automatically when rotated up preventing the device from accidently shining n the operators eyes. In addition, the power button on the wand must be held for 3 seconds and pressed twice to activate the lamp to help prevent children from activating the wand. Note: The UV wand should never be directed at human eyes or skin. Ultra portable, the UV Wand can be taken with you on trips to help sanitize your hotelHousewares
