The AirTamer A310 rechargeable personal air purifier is a compact and effective device that can help you breathe easier and reduce your exposure to airborne pollutants and viruses. It uses advanced electrostatic purification technology to release millions of negative ions, creating a sphere of cleaner air around you. Plus, it has been independently tested and proven to reduce Influenza A and Escherichia Coli Phage MS2 by 99% within 20 minutes.
Irritable bowel syndrome is incredibly embarrassing especially when one of the symptoms involves flatulence . I understand the seriousness of this question . People near a sufferer have to endure as well. My experience is ionizer technology is insufficient and a small one like this cannot do the job fast enough. Herbs may help interna!ly
The Airtamer does not actually "filter" anything. It produces ions that add a charge to air particles. This causes them to be attracted to and attached to oppositely charged items, such as surrounding walls, furniture, etc. I see no reason why this should not work with spores or mold. Since it is a static type device, it is likely to be most effective if you are stationary for a period of time and there is not much air movement, such as in a church service, a movie theater, an airplane, or sitting and reading at home.
Hi Juliet, thank you for reaching out to AirTamer. The AirTamer Personal Air Purifier is for personal use and will help with pet odors only if you have an issue with the smell or have an allergic reaction to their hair and dander. To remove pet odors from a large space (i.e. room), I would recommend a full size air purifier. Please feel free to reach out to customer [email protected] should you have additional questions. Thanks again for your interest in AirTamer!
No, it is not defective. AirTamer uses a conductive cord (lanyard) to boost cleaning performance. This means that your body is used as a "ground" to increase the number of negative ions that are emitted from ion emitter brush. Some people occasionally feel a tingle from the lanyard when the air is particularly dry and the lanyard is on the skin of their neck. If you experience this, you have a couple of options: (1) Put the lanyard over your shirt/blouse, or (2) Rub some body lotion on the portion of the lanyard that touches your neck.
It doesn't filter anything per se. It works by releasing negatively charged ions into the air which in turn attach themselves to particles in the air. Those particles then negatively charged get drawn to surfaces around you like walls floors ceilings etc. The ions attach themselves to any particles in the air. I would think that would include chemicals in fragrances as well, although I can't confirm for sure.

Clean air, pure water & healthy food. As a holistic health and wellness coach, these are the three Basics that I recommend to every client and all my friends and family. It’s part of my job to do deep unbiased research on practices & technology available & upcoming, so that I can recommend things responsibly and knowledgeably, in order to help people. I take my job very seriously. I uniquivocally recommend the AirTamer, rechargable! Consumer Reports recommends solely this brand for these reasons;1) it does what it claims, 2) it produces sufficient ions to make it effective, 3) does not produce hard harmful ozone with ions as a lesser byproduct, 4) clears the air in a corona effect around the unit, of smoke, dust, pollens, dander, fumes etc . That alone goes a long way in critically thinking people’s minds and decisions.There’s a ton of research on ionization & technological deveopment, over the last 40 -50 years in 1st Japan & Russia, then EU & Isreal and, more recently, the Americas, on ionization and its effects on the health and well-being of humans, animals and plants. The results corelate & are duplicable. So there’s enough to know that this isn’t just bogus snake oil. [Any who claim such, have obviously Not Read any of the well-documented research from around the world, or would baisedly rather you buy their alternative product.] Ions are produced naturally during lightning storms, where water crashes to ocean and lake shores, around quartz rock & granite mountains & quartz rock, by conifer trees by heating seasalt (pink himalayan seasalt candles – from Pakistan by the way) and made by falling water, including your shower & fountain. Basically, we feel great; invigorated, alive, positive & invigorated in those pristine environments. On the other hand, there is reverse or low ionization, which has detrimental effects on us. These are found in/ caused by dirty, polluted, toxic, environments (cities, BigAg farms, mine areas, factories & surrounds, etc), high emf technology (planes, computers, cell/smart phones, tvs, fridge, hair dryer, electric lines & power stations etc), stale poorly filtered ‘canned air’ abbraded air (AC/HC systems in homes, businesses, stores, theatres & transport, in witches winds areas at certain times of years), buses, trains, offices, planes, buses, modern aittight homes/businesses) and chemical substances (perfumes, lotions, carpets, cleaning supplies, synthetic fabrics/clothes/drapes/ furniture glues, pesticides/fungicides/ herbicides/GMO foods, additives, perservatives etc) separate these ionic clusters, so that the (bad for you) positive ions are left floating in the air (which we then breathe in, Ugh!#!) & the negative ions (good for you) fall to the ground and die (BooHoo!), which is called a lack of ionization (because it lacks the good guy ions). According to the research, the effect of these poorly ionized environments causes many negative effects in human, animal & plant life, both pysiologically & psychollogically. The negative effects of the low/ reverse ionic winds ‘Witches Winds’ are infamous world over; Santa Annas(CA), Chinooks(BC), Brauns (Alps), Zephr (Persia) etc. The song Black Day InJuly, bespeakes the inner city pollution/poor ionization that exasterbates problems contributing to emotions & actions. These effects range from increases in allergies, asthma, heart problems (angina, trachacardia, attacks & failures). Also lowered cognition, poor decision making, loss of memory, lowered job performance, increased irritability Psychological problems such as more anger, anxiety, rage, depression, apathy, insomnia. There are rises in symptoms of lethargy, exhaustion, apathy increases in flus/colds/allergies/asthma, heightend autoimmune problems, increase in abuse & crime. Though for years I used the only available one on the market, yet I found their units to be poorly made; failing/replacing them frequently and though better than nothing, was only marginally effective. Yet I desperately needed an ionizer, so used them.As soon as AirTamer out with their battery model I bought one off Amazon. I could immediately feel the difference and its heightend efficiency. The lightness and longevity of the batteries was pleasing too. I felt so much better on all levels! Tested it on my Trimeter & Ion meter many times, still perfect for loong time. Yet battery costs add up, so I got the rechargable unit Dec 17 & love it. Well worth the investment in terms of my health, performance, sleep, extended comfort zone, well being, mood etc! Reported AirTamer effects from many clients & friends (+ me)= ~3 dozen people:Zero or Substantially Less (50+%): incidence, severity & longevity of: illness (colds, flu & bronchitis), asthma, wildfire pollution effects, anger, allegies (ragweed, pet, & desert Juniper/ Cottonwood, dust, chemicals, etc ), autoimmune problems, lethargy, irritability, despondency, sinusitus, anxiety, poor memory, brain fog, stress, fatigue, insomnia, depression, irritability, anger, exhaustion, angina & arythmia (sp?), aggressive behavior, strained/weak vocal abililty. I encourage an open mind, & experimenting with the AirTamer turned on & off in different condotions, to be assured of it”s effect. To improve sleep, cognitive function, job performance, energy, general well being, respitory ease & health, heart rhythm & function, clear sinuses, better voice capacity, speaking & singing, mood lift, sense of calm & peace, memory, breathe much better in wildfire filled outdoor air (CA fire area folks used recommended SurroundAir S3500 Ionizer/UV/Hepa house purifier also). And no problem cleaning said mouse infestation after donning AirTamer! Do yourself a great favor: get 2 things on Amazon to help your health: AirTamer rechargable & New Wave Enviro Water filter (after all, we are 90% water!)

I like this little gadget. I can’t know properly it’s wider effects against pathogens, but I can say that since I’ve been using it my allergic reactions have greatly reduced: post nasal drip when lying down. Fairly soon after purchasing so time might tell. But I will say I’m glad I have it by me.

I just returned from a hectic, 3-week trip to Japan that involved two int’l flights, 2 domestic flights, more than a dozen long trips on trains, several trams, subways and crowded areas – ALL made healthier by wearing my AirTamer purifier. I’d used the older, battery-operated AirTamer for 3 years, and *never* – not even once! – gotten sick on a long, international flight. By contrast, my husband would come home nearly every time with a cold that took 3 weeks to get over.I just bought this new, rechargeable AirTamer for the trip to Japan, thinking it’d be easier to recharge the device than have to run out for batteries. About 100 times during the trip I found myself saying, “THANK GOD I’ve got this on!” While many Japanese wear face masks in public, there are still those who are sick, coughing or sneezing unprotected on every single form of transportation there. I would even wear this device here in the States when traveling or being in places with lots of people contact. Why take a chance? If you have senior parents, chances are they are in assisted living. Great place to catch norovirus. Same for hospitals if you go to visit or need a medical app’t.This device is lightweight, non-intrusive and sure seems to work, as I just returned from yet another long trip & flight home without EVER having had even a scratchy throat. The key is to wear it in the presence of large crowds. The charge lasts about 160 hrs, so I’d only charge it up every few days on the trip – and only when I knew I’d be traveling in mobs of people.The only thing I found may be unique to me is that the cord it hangs on caused a slight rash on my neck. It seemed to prickle a bit when wearing it. I resolved that by laying it on top of a neck scarf. Yes, it works better with the cord on one’s neck, but for my own comfort, I had the scarf layered in between. I’m going to give my 93-yr-old mom my old battery AirTamer, cuz she is often in the presence of germs and viruses being active as well as exposed to frail seniors with health issues.

I have severe allergies and from what I can tell when I use it, it keeps the air clean where I don’t cough hardly or not at all depending on where I am at. I like that it is quiet and has no scent. I’ve only used it a short time. I rated the value for money 4 stars because you have competition that offers more for less. The question is what makes yours worth the $$$?
Ram012593 –
It actually does reduce particulate matter decently I tested it with a meter but it it is very expensive and stops taking a charge after a short period of time. I had my first one for only a couple months and it would no longer take a charge. I went through the warranty process and the same thing happened in a few month. If they made these things more durable it might be worth the price.

Glad I bought it. Just used it on a trip, and I felt protected in the airport and the airplane (which was full!) Easy to operate. Instructions are clear. Looks like a pendant.

Can’t believe this little unit works so amazingly!!!I was at a bar for the superbowl with a group of people, one lady was coughing and of course I was right next to her. Out of the 6 people I was with, I was the only one that didn’t get sick.I was truly amazed by this and will never not use this in enclosed places with a lot of people.
SuzOR –
He was so very pleased when I bought this, to protect him from the particulates at his job. Great Product!

Good sized, classy looking, weight is appropriate, quiet, but the lanyard doesn’t adequately keep the AT stable when walking. Also, as a few previous comments noted, the top does produce a weak shock when the skin touches it.
