It seems as if you had your mind made up before you test it. Furthermore, it also seems as if you didn’t understand how anything actually worked including your little testing device. Sorry, I had no confidence in your ability to give a good review. Sorry.
The effectiveness of negative ion generators in achieving specific benefits, such as air purification or mood enhancement, is a topic of debate and ongoing scientific research. While some studies suggest potential positive effects, others have found limited or inconclusive evidence.
Honestly I agree with you. He came into this believing it wouldn't work and then didn't use it properly so of course it's not gonna work. Besides $100 for six is not bad at all.
Based on the discription the device uses ions to make the polluntants like dust heavy and fall to the ground. So it makes it easier to sweep up the dust and get rid of it. So if you dont sweep or vaccum there will still be dust in the room.
It works and it would be very helpful for the person doing the review to understand what it’s used for before telling people it’s a gimmick. Not a helpful review at all.
Ok a couple of comments. The VOC went up drastically because it measures the amount of created toxins in the air by mechanical means such as a gas stove or a gas fireplace, or a hair dryer, or a wood burning fireplace. The 5 air ionizers you plugged in to a single bedroom put enough ionized particles in the air for that voc count to go up significantly. That is what it was measuring. So those devices did do something they increased the VOC count significantly. They also did remove some of the radon. Also try this at home any of you that own this air quality tester. Set it up in a living room with carpet. Test the air in your room. Then run your vacuum cleaner over the carpet. Now test the air quality again. Unless you have a very good hepa vacuum you will see your air quality go very bad in seconds. The PM and VOC count will rise drastically. All coming out of the carpet.
Voc went from 800+ to 318. Identify and Address Air Quality Issues: Indoor air quality monitors can detect pollutants and other harmful substances in the air, such as mold, carbon monoxide, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs).

Is there something you can recommend to use in your home that would actually help with the air quality but also with pollutant’s that’s actually safe to use? Just curious as I’ve been having issues with copd and need something that would help with my home for my sinuses as well as breathing as I have pets but also vacuum and sweep regularly.

Thanks for the information, it was a good first attempt however, you did not measure the outside air so we have no real reference to base your conclusions on. Example, if the outside pollen count was 200 when you measured the inside, but then went to 400 6 days later then the units did not make the pollen worse, it was normally worse with or without the Clarifion. Now, I also don't believe these things do as advertised but without outside measurements we simply can't yet prove it. Please be note that this is just one possible fluctuating variable to consider. You also need to consider temperature inside & outside, because this changes the atmospheric density and this could also affect the pollution/pollen & other stuff concentration. Also consider your environment, how is it attached to the outside? Is there only an inside door to the house and not one directly to the outside? Are there two doors, one to the inside of the house one to the outside? How often over the week did you open those doors? For how long? etc. I trust you can see what I'm getting at. You first need to measure all three environments, keep tract of door usage, for a week without the device plugged in, and then again with the device plugged in before any real conclusions can be made. I got my master's in physics from USC in 1976 this problem/experiment is both of interest to Chemists and Physicists, and many others like environmentalists, and I'm sure you are close to some university or college where you live. Why not contact them to see how they would handle a "simple" test of this device. They might even have a controlled environment space to use for the test. Pronunciation (My take on it): Clarif - comes from Clarification, and ion comes from them using negative ions, so Clarif ion into Clarifion. Thanks again, Philip Karras BS, MA Physics
Im guessing he didn’t understand that the ion create a charge and drop because they are too heavy, which in turn would most definitely pass through his air quality meter causing it to read higher activity. Should have used the clean surface dirty surface comparison. The experiment you conducted you misled yourself.
YEARS ago I bought an ion generator. Yes, it takes the particulate matter out of the air, BUT it also deposits it on the walls darkening them. Never bought an ion generator and filter combination, but that is definitely needed.
A negative ion generator will have absolutely no affect on the mBar reading. BTW: that's the atmospheric pressure and I would be very surprised to find a device that could affect atmospheric pressure. But if you do find one, let the DOD know, they would be very interested in it.
In the 1990’s I had an Ionizer but it was big. It did work attracting lots of particles from the air in our house. I had to clean the dust off it every 4 days. But it worked and I paid $400. But you can buy an ionizer that mounts into the A/C unit. And works the best. It zaps all particles in the air before they go out the a/c vents. About $400.
I laughed when my elderly stepfather bought these and put them all over the house. I'm not laughing now. The damn things actually work. I don't know where the dust goes, but it went somewhere.
To be honest the only thing that’s good at removing dust will be yourself. Just make sure you remove clutter and use a duster every other day to clean the surface that build up the most dust.
I have 4 dogs. In Texas, we don't get much rain, and THAT is the reason my house remains dusty!!! It doesn't have ANY to do with clutter. My windowsills, table, desk, sinks, couch...anything that's horizontal gets dusty!!
VOC Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) are everywhere around you. Taking in a deep breath, even in the comfort of your own home, can have a negative effect on your health if VOCs are present. It can be scary to think that the air you are breathing could someday cause you to develop asthma or cancer. While your test is not scientific... it shows averages are worse(not sure why it would get worse)... maybe 5 in a 10 X 15 room is negatively affecting results... When the human nose cannot detect danger, it is difficult to believe it may be all around us. Yet, that is the hidden hazard of VOCs. Oftentimes, VOCs waft through our homes and other indoor spaces disguised as pleasant-smelling fragrances, so our noses are fooled by the presentation.
if it made it worse, thats actually a good sign. The ionizer causes particles to clump up together so that they can be absorbed by filtration systems. Give it a couple months with an actual filter running too to remove said particles from the air.
Agree, PM should have been green after a week. " So if you don't sweep or vacuum there will still be dust in the room." If you are going to have to sweep and dust anyway, why buy this???
Because even though there's dust on the floor, it's all in the air too. This takes it out of the air, so when you clean, you are actually cleaning the dust away.
I’ve tried an orac ionizer and effected my breathing. My doctor said it’s because I have asthma. I tried a small air filter with 4 ionizing pins in my bathroom and it didn’t bother me.
Lmao! Definitely dirty and dusty it’s my small little experimental room. I connected all of them to see if I could get a better reading on my airthings. But as you saw there really wasn’t any change.
I thought it collected the dust but it all falls to the floor. You won’t believe the dust I clean off the floor. At least there’s not as much in the air.
That was my question. The dust in the air was gone in a few days in my stepfather's house and I couldn't see it anywhere else. I guess that means more vacuuming, but it's worth it.
I came across your review of the Clarifion and I am so thankful I did. You saved me from buying another over-priced, worthless item. If you see my comment, please share your contact information because I would like to stay connected to you. I enjoyed your honest, straight-to-the-point review.
It looks like your air quality improved… in 1 week’s time… maybe you should test it for 2 weeks or even 3 weeks. Then unplug all of them and check if the air quality goes down while they are unplugged… also, you tested it during only 1 season… the air quality may be better or worse in different seasons. To truly know how something works in and during several environmental changes; day and night, summer and winter, (windows and doors open or closed could also effect the results) you need to do multiple tests. This is how a scientist will conduct a study… things like that may take time, and multiple tests. You are the first reviewer that I watched… I will check other videos to see the various results. Thank you for the “air things tester” I appreciated the straight facts regarding your air quality. And thank you for the definitions of each measurement!! 😊
The name of this RUclips channel. As a Hawaii state citizen we share a lot in common. Anyway. Thanks for the review. There's essentially a much cheaper version of a similar product on temu and I'm suspicious of it.
Something similar i purchased created Ozone in my family's house. This is made thinds worse. Unreal. Hope you're doing well my fellow expensive state comrade.
What's so ridiculous about it as compared to the regular ones you'd have to buy for around 100 dollars for JUST ONE and they're too big to plug into the wall?
Nah, doesn't work. If you have animals you need to clean constantly. That means vacuuming and dusting every day, maintaining the litter box by scooping several times a day, breaking down and thoroughly washing out litter boxes weekly, wash your floors several times a week.
If you do not know what you are measuring, don’t measure it. It takes away from what could have been an interesting review of equipment, and instead forces the viewer to review you as a reviewer. Sadly you do not pass.
You really should research stuff before you share products. Do even know if your air device reader is working correctly... Have you compared it to another air device reader? By the way, all the dust got attached to your walls and floor. That's what this device does.. take a clean cloth and wipe the surface, you will see where the dust went....
This guy is inexperienced. Too much space huh. They aren't even on the floor . Does your nanny cut the crust Off your bread? Or is there an app for that? And radiation? Face it bud . We are stuck with that. Sorry.
Not a very unbiased review. You don't seem to know anything about the technology. Consider not repeating, "Things" and "I dont know", in future "reviews"
You really don't sound unbiased in any way. If you had your mind made up that it was "gimmicky" and doubt it would work then you're definitely not the right person to give a review of it.
What is god’s name are all the things you’re testing and why do you have all that in one tiny room? Why should you have all those terrible things happening in one tiny room?

This doesn't measure the dust on the floors, so there should be a difference in air quality if it has fallen.
But if you don't sweep or vacuum, @@donaldsharrer812, when you walk in the room, you kick it up into the air.
I’ve had it for 3weeks it stopped congestion post nasal drip coughing in the morning and triggering asthma symptoms It works!!!😮❤
Me too 😊
I’m glad it works for you but it might just be superstition.
I’ve read that it would be actually dangerous for people with asthma, because of ozone created or generated
@@50toinfinityatleast ozone and ions are different. You can create one without creating the other.
ozone is just the most potent form
It works and it would be very helpful for the person doing the review to understand what it’s used for before telling people it’s a gimmick. Not a helpful review at all.

It’s an ionizer. The negative ions attach to the positive ions in dust making dust heavy and fall to the ground clearing the air.
The test results didn’t really show a difference in air quality. Maybe I needed to keep it on longer
The readings would be lower if the dust/dirt was on the floor and not in the air, right?
I appreciate people like giving REAL reviews, thanks and sending you a virtual beer 🍺

Did you take any readings the week before after while not using the product to have a baseline to study and a prepare aperspective?
Yeah I did a 1 week prior reading with the air reader than plugged everything in and left it there for another week and compared
He says it was two readings a week apart. There should have been a difference if the thing worked.
Im guessing he didn’t understand that the ion create a charge and drop because they are too heavy, which in turn would most definitely pass through his air quality meter causing it to read higher activity.
