CPAP Guardian

Does anyone know anything about this? Was new to me, sounds like it might [NOT] have merit (?)

I would NOT recommend using this.

The idea - as I understand it - is to put this with the CPAP device in a sealed plastic bag to disinfect the CPAP device.

First, it's pretty expensive at $120.

Second, it only uses a AA (double A) battery. I doubt it will generate enough ozone to be effective.

Third, the ozone will start to impact the CPAP device over time. It would cause the plastic to become more brittle and would adversely impact its ongoing operation. Eventually, it would weaken the plastics.

Just not sure this is a good idea for the average user.

If you look at the description of the unit...the vocabulary is terrible...this bothers me
.................................................................................................................................................

☉Tornado uses double A battery, so it can disinfect everytime and everywhere.
☉While disinfecting, it do not need to start the CPAP and not need alternating current and simulative blocking cup.
☉It don't need a special bag, the disinfecting operation is easier.

Economical and practical
☉Any bags around us, even recycling bags can be used for the disinfecting space. (The size of bag is not more than the suggestion.)
☉It can use rechargeable batteries which are economical and environmental protection.
☉Because it don't need a special bag, the costs of manufacture and maintenance decline considerably.
☉It do not need to start the CPAP, so it can avoid wasting the machine
