Hello guys Sami here, today I bring you the review of this reusable N95 electric face mask.
Right now, we are in the epicenter of this coronavirus outbreak, or COVID-19 as you might call it.
This virus is way more serious than you think, it’s not a strong flu or common cold
and currently we don’t any specific treatment for coronavirus,
so one of the best ways to protect you from contracting it is to wear a face mask.
This electric face mask has got my attention for several reasons.
First, it’s reusable. Unlike most of the regular surgical masks, they are one-time thing.
This one you can use as many times as you want. Let’s take a closer look of this mask.
On the left side of the mask you can find a charging port, that’s why it called electric mask,
on the right, there is a power button to let you turn on the mini fan inside the mask
It has two levels
Once this mask in low battery it will flash red and need charging,
when finished, the indicator will turn to green.
The battery will last 4-6 hours depending on how you use it,
and each filter can last 30 to 45 days until a replacement.
Speaking of the filter, this thing is a beast. And this is yet another reason why I got so much interest in it.
The filtration system has 4 layers including a front sterilizing filter,
an activated carbon filter, a HEPA filter and a non-woven layer,
thus it can block at least 98% of those small (0.3 micron) particles,
of course including coronavirus carriers.
The biggest concern of the mask is you can see there are three holes down here,
wouldn’t that let in a lot of unfiltered air into the mask?
Actually you don’t have to worry about that.
This is a vent valve, which is used to exhaust the exhaled air.
When you exhale, they will open, when you inhale, they will close.
Besides, when you turn on the mask, the pressure inside the chamber is greater than the outside,
so it wont let the unfiltered air in.
Just to give u an idea of how it performs, the official did a test video about that, check out.
Now about the user experience. To be honest I have mixed feelings about it.
It has obvious disadvantages.
It is heavy, it weighs 90 grams, while a normal one weighs about 4 grams.
Even if you wear for only 20 minutes, your face will start to feel sore, especially your nose bridge;
Second is it’s a bit noisy.
If you wear it outdoors, that’s no big deal, it’s a noisy environment anyway,
but if you are in a quite room, the noise might get a bit annoying.
Oh, if you are in a quite room, you might don’t need it
Ok the noise might not be a problem. , but I prefer a quieter one
Last I feel it’s a bit small, if I put it on and speak normally it's OK
But I want to shout out..
Might be a bit small, or just only me...
Sure It has its advantages well, it has a really effective filtration system,
it’s reusable, normally one filter lasts about 1 month, the package includes 3 filters, that’s 3 months,
if u wear N95 mask one per day, that might cost 3 times more as the electric one,
So, it saves you money.
Since I listed all of the good and bad side of this mask, I will leave to you guys to judge if it’s for you or not.
I personally suggest if you can buy a normal N95 face mask like this Xiaomi one then go and get it,
but if that's not available like your local pharmacies are all out of stock.
Then this could be a choice, it's not bad
Alright that’s the video, I hope you all stay safe.
Always wash your hands when you get home or into work,
do not touch your eyes, nose or mouth if your hands are not clean
and try to avoid close contact with people who are unwell.
See you next time.
