/showme sad air purifier

@fuzzmanmatt The showme command has to be in a new comment and not a reply. They really should fix that.

@yakkoTDI those jerks!

@yakkoTDI

@fuzzmanmatt Excellent.

@yakkoTDI I makes the things do what I want. I’ve worked corporate jobs, I know how to work around restrictions.

@fuzzmanmatt @yakkoTDI I think it’s just asleep in that image. Does this air purifier snore in “night mode?”

@fuzzmanmatt Yep my two Winex are still going strong. The darn aftermarket filters on Amazon don’t quit fit snug though for sure.

@Kidsandliz
Even a $10 IRK would make me happy!

@werehatrack It is not her candle that stinks.

@yakkoTDI You know this how?

@detailer I always sniff my fingers after clam digging.

@IndifferentDude Where is the downstar button?!

@troy Guess your crack staff of programmers has a new project to complete ASAP!

@hchavers

How long until they start recycling our food?

I think you’d call those leftovers.

@hchavers @Kidsandliz They can recycle our food all they want. I wonder when they will start recycling us.

@hchavers @yakkoTDI We get recycled into dirt.

@hchavers I get the sentiment but humanity does a pretty good job messing up the air with auto exhaust, brake dust, smoke, etc. etc. At least we mostly got the lead out.

@hchavers I have an air purifier specifically because I open my windows, and I don’t want to breathe more exhaust, brake dust, and tire dust than I have to.

@hchavers laughs in lives in yearly wildfires

@hchavers @Kidsandliz @yakkoTDI
Wouldn’t recycling us be the good ole organ transplant?
And I thank my lucky stars for it!

@hchavers do you seriously think this is a co2 scrubber and oxygen generator???

Or were you just dead set on making a real “profound” statement…

@hchavers @Kidsandliz @yakkoTDI See “Soylent Green” circa 1973… although not after a big meal!

@hchavers We need machines to recycle our air because of all the pollutants we put into it. I think we need to solve that one first. (When the kids go outside to play and return inside, my wife says they “smell like sun”. Actually, it’s the high concentration of ozone outside that makes them smell that way. Ewww.)

@hchavers @TmanSim If this would allow me to open the window during fire season (fine…year-round, fire season is no longer a single season anymore), I will buy this in an instant! (I think it was 2 summers ago that I could barely go outside at all due to fires…Colorado, it was bad.)

@mikesmells It would probably take a margarita and filter out all the alcohol.

@mikesmells No, but the filter is the color of a margarita.

@kus We are offering the filters on Sidedeal. We have a pretty healthy supply of them, so you’ll be able to purchase them from us if in need.

@kus @troy And the Amazon listing says you can rinse or vacuum the filters to extend their life.

@ircon96 @kus @troy The manual says vacuum, rinse was not mentioned in what I saw.

@kus @troy @werehatrack I haven’t seen the manual, i was just going by the “About This Item” section of the Amazon listing:

PROLONG FILTER LIFE : To prolong the filter life, you can clean your filter using a damp cloth or the hose or a vacuum. After cleaning, re-insert the your filter and you’re good to go!

@AROAH Yes – although we have a pretty healthy supply of filters currently that should last us months, I’d recommend stocking up before we run out.

@AROAH @troy But won’t that just make you sell out sooner? Oh, right…

@Tadlem43 it turns out you can, for a limited time on SideDeal. $50 each, though that’s actually a good deal in line with high-end multilayer round filter canisters, like the Dyson and other brands.

@pmarin Thanks. When I posted that, it was for members only and I figured they’d sell out soon. Can’t find them anywhere else, so what do you do when SideDeal doesn’t sell them anymore?

@obxer see the SideDeal site right now. But long-term, unless you stock up now (at $50 each), you might not be able to find them in the future. Also wonder if other brands like Dyson could be “hacked” to work in this – but those are expensive too.

@obxer found some on Menards which is a Midwest “Home Depot” can find them all over the internet when I checked this morning before buying.

@obxer @pmarin I’m wondering if it can be home brewed as well. I bought the unit and two filters. Will try to figure things out by then or just buy a different one anyway. Will def get my 200.00 out of it

@pmarin I’ll wait for the version that includes this monitoring.

@tncbnc21 The Our Happi is still available for purchase, but yes the company is liquidating as someone purchased the license to the Happi name. We own the majority of remaining purifiers and have a healthy supply of filters that should feed customers’ needs for a while.

@Trenn I’m in Colorado and while it’s not necessarily ash, particles from fires can easily travel decent distances. Fires over 100 miles away decrease air quality noticeably. I’ve had issues over many summers with fire particulates. But even ash, you can still have ash but not be in danger from the fire (happened more than once).

@Trenn Unfortunately much of the west coast has to deal with very smokey air in late summer / early fall from forest fires many miles away. This used to never happen, but now it happens almost annually.

I live in the Seattle area (Everett). Here’s a short clip that compares two of the recent very smokey years.

@lukeorsini damn. I haven’t had any issues with mine. My particle counter goes from 001 to 003 then back every once in awhile so unsure if that isn’t working or not. Def feels like the air is more airy tho

@lukeorsini You took the wrapping off of the filter before starting it, right?

@troy haha, yes. I actually look a long look for more packaging that needed to be removed inside. I would guess there was a plastic stringer that wore off. It is working great now.
