hi, think the ioniser thing is good for a strong and lasting scent..however, it's expensive to replace the aromatic oil they use..

i;ve done some goggling on this before..and apprently it WILL / MAY help to purifer the air by circulation..meaning..as the water spin..an air current will be formed and thus when air is pushed outta the purifier, outside air will be sucked in and ''purified'' by the liquid..

IMO, it may be useful to trap dusts..and thus ''purifies'' the air..but it may not be as useful to trap bacterias or other harmful elements within our car cabin..few days back..it was reported that our car cabins actually contains a very high percentage of harmful substances as compared to the air outside

btw if u r keen on one...i've saw an offer in an departmental store in clementi, ''W*TSONS"...few days ago

$39 i think...for the ioniser plus a bottle of aromatic ointment

will the water spill out if i corner too fast or jam brake or the road very bumpy?

sunnyMAN SG

it wont coz it's closed tight

think of it like a closed container

If you put in on the dash in the middle, if jam brake the whole thing will topple and soak the aircon/radio/gear.

Its not completely sealed ma? Still have the slots for the air to go in and out -_-"

but if u corner too fast or too tight...the whole thing will just slide one one end to the other end...

im thinkin of gettin one as well...looks like this

here are the specs:
Simply plug it into the cigarette lighter plug, and all you need is 10 seconds to feel the difference.
Get rid off the pizza/burger/kfc smell, coffee spills, whatever food you ate in the car before.

No More Noise/Ordor
* Simply plug into cigarette lighter
* Generates millions of Negative Ions
* Uses no chemical or agents
* Maintenance Free
* Refresh air in cars

* Working Voltage: DC 12V
* Power Consumption: 0.6W
* Weight: 30g
* Size: 8.4cm(L) x 2.5cm(Dia)
* Negative Ion Concentration: 43,000 ions per cube inch

Negative Ion: Negative ions can clump microscopic particles together and make the floating particles fall to the floor. Negative electrons can clean up the air, activate oxygen and help human health to make people feel better.

Ozone(O3): O3 purifies air through oxidation. When it occurs, both the atom and contaminant are destroyed. Contaminant therefore changes into carbon dioxide and hydrogen that make the air clear.

it wont spill coz its sticked to the dash board with double sided tapes..

it wont spill thru the slots as its sticked to the dash board with double sided tapes...hence it wont overturn and let the water leak out...as long as the ioniser if kept upright...water wont flow thru the slots

digicharat SG

will this drain up the battery?

alamat SG

ozone is harmful.

Does it work on convertibles? Half the time I drive with the top off. I wonder if air fresheners work on convertibles.

alexkusu SG

i hav no idea. I have not tried/bought it yet. Confused

the Bear SG

i am using it..

bought one because the science seems sound...

the one i bought can be powered by 4 AA batts too.. so i tested it out by using it and putting it near the whiffy hamster cage.. after about 1/2 hour, there was a lack of smell (which kinda disturbed my hamster a bit Laughing )

so it works.. i've since deployed it in the car Wink
