USB Air Purifiers
Power your purifier with your computer
One of the latest innovations in the air purification industry is the ability to connect an air purifier to your computer's USB (Universal Serial Bus) port. This is a fine gift for the gadget nut on your list, but it may also have practicality that other air filters and purifiers lack. Your computer emits different kinds of contaminants and toxins as it is operating. Some of these toxins may be harmful to your health, so it is a good idea to remove them from the air.
You may also have cube-mates with a propensity for heavy perfumes. These purifiers can go a long way toward making the air you breathe healthier and fresher.
A USB air purifier can also be of benefit to people who work at home. You don't really need to purify the air throughout your home if you're only sitting at your desk, and the really nice thing about these units is their price – $20, or not much more.
USB air purifiers clear the air in an area of about 9 square feet; that's perfect for the allergy-sensitive office worker. They can be transported along with your laptop or can be connected to a stationary PC. Of course, don't forget that these are limited in their ability to clean the air.
In a final analysis, USB air filters offer some worthwhile air purification at an affordable price. Before purchasing one of these air purifiers, however, be sure your computer has a USB port (older models are not equipped with one). Some USB air purifiers that are worth taking a closer look at include:
The USB Air Purifier Ionizer , which features:
- Absorbance of secondhand smoke, odors, bacteria, dust and viruses.
- Consistent release of negative ions to improve the air you're breathing.
The Cyclops/OEM AP280 USB Air Ionizer , which features:
- Removal of a variety of contaminants such as smoke, dust and bacteria.
- Removal of irritants from the immediate area in which you are working.
- Reduction of bad odors without artificial scents.
And, of course, both feature USB connections that make them easy to plug into your laptop or PC.
