Wein Minimate AS150MM Air Supply Minimate Personal Air Purifier

I first bought this ionizer in a local shop at a time of severe outbreak of SARS in Hong Kong 17 years ago originated from a sick patient from mainland China. 11 years later, I picked up the same ionizer to defend myself against the small particles in the polluted air across the border from mainland China. The reduction of my coughing by the ionizer is immediately noticeable.Thereafter I had bought several more from Amazon to replace the worn out units. While the output of this ionizer is noticeably stronger than the others, its working life does seem to be much shorter as well. It is kind of a trade-off: work harder, live shorter (I have to warn myself against working too hard as well). Over the last two years I had been trying to buy more units but to no avail. Many sellers do not ship to Hong Kong. Then the mainland China struck Hong Kong with yet another outbreak of deadly disease, this time the terrible Wuhan Coronavirus or WARS (named as 2019-nCoV or COVID-2019 by WHO). This time I am lucky to be able to find a seller on Amazon who would ship to Hong Kong. The units were quickly shipped to me.I wish more sellers would ship to Hong Kong to help us ward off the invasion from mainland China, which physical invasion are either in the form of deadly pollutants or in the form of deadly virus.

This is awesome. I have had two different personal air purifiers in the past and neither of them worked as well as this one. The output is fantastic, in fact I bought it because one of the other reviewers complained about too much output. When you have chemical sensitivities and cannot even go down the detergent aisle due to the smells that will result in an asthma attack, there is no such thing as too much output!! I ended up purchasing a second one for my daughter after she tried it and decided it was great.

I owned this product for several years which I bought in the Mall at one of the electronic store and it was Perfect! It was recently stolen and I ordered a replacement here on Amazon. The ONLY difference in the original was that the battery has been reversed for installation. This confused me and I sent the first one back as defective. When the second one arrived even before the first one was back, I looked it over carefully when it would Not work either, only to find that the problem was ME! I apologize for my inability to LOOK rather than ASSUME they were the same just because they looked the same. Actually, I think this one is much stronger than the first one which had a higher cost. I always used this on flights as I travel often on international flights and the recycled air is horrible on my sinus'. It works like a gem. NO, I do not use the lithium batteries on flights, but they work well with the same size camera battery which is allowed on flights. When I returned the first unit as defective the company called and were very understanding when I explained that after examination, the defect was NOT theirs, but mine. I can Highly recommend this product to anyone that needs to have their air purified whether on a plane, home or anywhere for that matter. GREAT PRODUCT!!

I bought this because I had CIRS or mold illness. It probably would have been helpful for me, but I discovered this illness, like MCS and many others is a limbic system trauma and I have been healing myself with dynamic neural retraining system. In a matter of weeks, I am mask free. So I didn't need this and they graciously accepted and processed my return.

The battery contact point was skewed to where contact was poor and failed w/very few uses. As it initially worked, I decided that this probable knockoff was just cheaply made & didn't attempt to return it if I could jimmy it into working. The original unit I'd purchased off the airline catalog worked beautifully for more than 10 yrs.I would definitely discourage anyone from buying this cheaply, poorly made unit. If you use it as I have, on crowded airplane trips, you may not know soon enough that it will likely fail.

I have now tried all the neck / shirt pocket ion / ozone generating allergy relief solutions sold on Amazon that are very highly rated by hundreds of people. I have been coughing and gasping for air and have had several sleepless nights over the last four months I have tried everything to get relief including being so bad my doctor gave me steroids and a Zpac a few weeks ago. I have had this since early childhood, so I consider myself having very severe allergies. My family calls me The Canary because I'm the first one to go down... Just laying a foundation for you...I started using this yesterday and I had such a great night sleep, I almost missed to work this morning. Singing would have out of the question and I was able to sing to my pet rabbits (they love that). By the way, I am allergic to every animal with fir, large and small :(, except rabbits!🐇🐇🐇. I am not the only one to report this if you are as bad as I.The unit is lite and small. I have a thick neck, so I ordered a longer lanyard from Amazon. I plan to run this 24/7, so I bought a Tenergy RCR123A rechargeable lithium battery charger kit, 110v wall charger and base, 6 cells, and a 12v charger for the base. All available on Amazon for around $37.00 Prime.I have stopped the sharp loud single cough I have had for months since using this! There is a perceptable micro breeze blowing up my face which is caught by my nostrils while inhaling. The breeze is slightly cooling which I find delightful because my face aways feels hot.Another confirmation my problem is inhalation of substances causing my respiratory stress is that I tried inexpensive surgical masks. These also work great and are cheap at a box of 50 for $5.00. The thing I hate about these is the accumulating moisture and they make my face hot not to mention something else impeding my already stressed breathing...Pull the trigger and get yourself one. If it does mot work for you, Amazon will take it back. Cheers! And good luck!
