I'm looking to buy a 100mg ozonizer as I've heard it's good for odour control. Any thoughts?
I need something small, and inexpensive. This would be perfect if it works. I've attached a pic

yes, they work ... these are cheaper, and work very well, I use two in my large cabinet ... http://www.1000bulbs.com/product.php?product=9135 ... :smokin:
You can build one pretty easy and cheap....I have no idea of the output of the bulbs, but one built from a neon sign transformer puts out a decent amount of O3. How many bulbs are needed for 6 stinkers to freshen a room?
How does one build one exactly? Link me up
Here I read over this and pasted it...its accurate.
First you need a neon sign or similar transformer at about 6000v(Ebay....franceformer is good) You need
a small glass jar and a larger jar that will hold the smaller one. The
larger jar should be glass as well. Lastly you need a small amount of aluminum foil or copper sheet metal (better) and you may need a few short pieces of wire. The transformer can be as small as 3000v but the more
the better up to a point. I use 7000v and that is plenty but you can use up
to 15000v.
Put a small piece of aluminum foil or copper (about 2" sq.) inside the small jar at
the bottom. Cover the outside bottom of the small jar with foil so that it
covers the same area as the foil inside. You can cover the whole inside and
outside of the jar, that may work better but just make sure the inner and
outer foil layers do not touch or come too close. Put the smaller jar
inside the larger one. Connect one high voltage lead to the foil inside and
the other to the foil outside. The larger jar just insulates the whole
thing. I would put the whole set up on a piece of wood or other insulator.
Try not to cross the wires. The bare part of the wire must touch the foil.
If the insulation on the wire makes it difficult or if the wires are too
short, you may use some other wire to extend them. Be sure to keep the
wires as short as possible you don't want to touch them they will give you
a jolt. Turn it on, you'll hear a crackling noise and if its dark you'll
see a blue glow. If theres a short you may see an arc, just turn it off and
separate the conductors so that they don't short out. The ozone will come
out the top so don't plug it up.
I use two of the odor-neutralizing bulbs in my 2'x4'x8' cabinet ... a friend uses only one ... there is zero odor with the bulb on, in my cabinet ... :smokin:
Thanks very much folks, looks like I'll go for that. Think I'll buy one as they're not too expensive & I just hate building stuff myself (as I am very lackig in the skills).
