Interestingly enough, these products aren't sold by reputable sellers
and they all come in plain boxes with no mention of the point of
origin. So, getting information about how they operate is easier said
than done:>:

FYI: Any "purifier" that uses ionization generates Ozone. Ozone is bad stuff to breathe in any appreciable concentration and is _extremely_ bad for anyone with asthma. There have been law suits and FDA actions against sellers in the US. Guess why they are all in plain boxes with no ID.

Not to say there is anything wrong with piezo transformers, just the missuse of them.
