We use that in the field as a backup sterilizer for medical equipment. I recommend it.
What's the shelf life like? I saw around 10 years on Happy Preppers but idk if I take their word for it
Ten years sounds about right? if you rotate it every eight years, you should be fine.
Cool
How to clean filtermasks after usage?
Dont want any stray trapped viruses to contaminate me after a while
Will an uv setup work? lets say 60 watts
Will ethanol damage the filter?
I just have 1 maybe 2 filters for myself and these have to last for the next months
What about water resistant ones?
Posted it
@Mr. Verboten why does it look like that
Idk
I saved it on mobile and posted it here
How quickly will I get cancer from 110watts of uvc ?
depends on the type and spectrum
generally it is not adviced to be under it and you have to limit exposure as maximum as possible
you have to use it as germicide in a room you will not be in while it is on
but even after it is turned off it is still dangerous because that room is filled with ozone now
also it degrades plastics and some substances as i remember
How many horus total will the average 40mm nato filter last when used in a standard nondecominated outdoors area?
I hear its 8 hours for decontaminated areas
and you should always change after 40 hours or 30 days after opening
how true is that?
Abek or activated charcoal filters can vary, based on age, quality of material and type of chemical strips. For just particulate filters, they will continue to filter particles safely until it becomes difficult to pull air through, although its harder to breath, the effectiveness will not be compromised, just be careful not to asphyxiate, you might not have the energy to pull the mask off. For charcoal or combination filters check out this: https://youtu.be/2L8KgrVTPH0
Ignore the title
The TDLR is basically that Vitamin C is better for **preventing** cold-like illness, while zinc supplements are better to fight it if you have it already
Vitamin C still makes about an 8% difference according to their sources, which is "statistically significant", as they said, but consider stocking zinc as well
Also how come no one ever told me that Emergen-C is a meme <:pinkwojak:673420781182779442>
It's like 10 times the price for half the medicine you get for a regular bottle of supplements
Tldr: vitamin c BTFO'd
Also, anyone have a recommendation for iodine supplements and where to get them? Brick-and-mortar stores preferred
@UncleDrMrBaby I seem to recall you knew something about them
@itstooslim are they not, found in supermarket usually?
