The "Z" Machine * Ozone Generator *
Hello peoples.
After using a homemade carbon scrubber, and not being satisfied, I made a second scrubber composed of carbon, cat litter, bounce sheets, and a whole arsenal of other smelly crap. It still didn't seem to get rid of the lovely plant smell. ( sucks we have to hide it eh? )
Well, I refuse to spend $600 + for an ozone generator, so I built one.
Using a 5000 volt neon sign transformer, a cat litter box, aluminum foil, and other little bits of stuff, I created the "Z" Machine.
A glass plate * "yoinked" from an unused picture * separates 2 layers of aluminum foil taped to the glass plate.
5000 volts is fed to each piece of foil from the Allanson neon sign transformer.
When turned on, you hear a "zzzzzz" noise, hence the name the "Z" machine. It gives off quite a large ammount of ozone for a single plate, I will be upgrading to 2 plates running off the single transformer. I also have a second transformer in case I need to build a second ozone generator.
Pics below show my ozone plate inside the Cat litter box, along with an MS paint picture I made of the Ozone plate. And a final pic showing the size of the "Z" machine (14 inches long) compared to the carbon scrubber ( 2.5 FEET long ).
If my post seems clusterfucked, its because it is...
Hope this helps someone
-Haz ( DO NOT STICK YOUR FINGERS OR ANY PART OF YOURSELF NEAR THE OZONE PLATE WHILE ITS OPERATING UNLESS YOU HAVE A DEATHWISH.
