@Alien88@mossygreen Good product at an extraordinarily great price. (The glass spray bottle alone is worth several bucks if you want something for misting.)
One good use is for sanitizing produce.
I’ve bought several before. Thinking about buying some more for my germy friends! (I’ll thank me whether they do or not…)
I’m in if the shipping doesn’t cost more than one product. What say you meh? Just seems wrong when post office sent shirts to my son serving in Jordan for three dollars. I know, I was surprised, likely because it went by boat.
This writeup is largely wonderful, and feels like it was written to directly address my sort of pedantry.
…that said… I do have a nit to pick: you said it’s the “same basic principle that’s going on with OxiClean,” but I don’t think that’s true? from Wikipedia:
One of the active ingredients in OxiClean is sodium percarbonate (Na2CO3•H2O2), an adduct of sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). This breaks down into hydrogen peroxide when dissolved in water.
No mention of ozone anywhere on that page. But maybe I’ve misunderstood something — I don’t know anything about this I didn’t look up a moment ago.
Peroxide (h2o2) and ozone (o3) are both unstable molecules with an extra oxygen atom, which they are very happy to give to other molecules(turning them back to h2o and o2).
Giving oxygen to a molecule is oxidization (the “oxi” in OxiClean). Its not exactly like setting the molecule on fire but its not entirely dissimilar to setting it on fire as there is some energy released. It often breaks up other molecular bonds and physically damages the oxidized substance.
Ozonated water is very short lived; after 20 minutes or so there’s not enough ozone left to be a proper disinfectant. Airborn ozone is pretty harsh stuff but buffered in water its pretty harmless to anything bigger than a flea, though drinking it is probably not the best idea.
Molds, mildews, bacteria and viruses are small enough the aqueous ozone is pretty lethal, which is why it is classified as a disinfectant.

@phendrick thanks! i have some of my Stores cash so i used it to buy one
I have one, it does what it says it does.
Okay, I’m in for two based on early comments. But if this thing kills me I’m finding you and haunting you.

@El_Oel That’s quite the appropriate order number!

Sooooooo… we’re just not gonna talk about the pic of the dog nooses?
@BrettPro You mean the photo with a triangular swing suspended by three ropes?

@jamesmcp Neat! Thank you for the chemistry lesson; it was clear and interesting, and I appreciate it!
Is this thing better or worse to gift than deodorant?
So, for five bucks, I will give it a go. Studies show it only works on non-porous surfaces though, so most of the examples are just wrong.
