Darn, I just ordered 2. Guess I'll have to do some test.
BTW, one can smell ozone (O3), I assume the corn LED would generate it. Also, 60W on LED would be super bright, I guess I can at least measure the power usage of the bulb.
I hope you realize that the New England Journal of Medicine has concluded that masks do not prevent the virus from being spread or inhaled by you.
How dangerous is UVC? ...to skin and eyes?

It is pretty dangerous and you don't want to be exposed to it. UV-C light breaks down DNA and RNA in viruses, bacteria and in you. If you use it, you want it in a sealed chamber so no light leaks out.
Funny - I am building an ice-chest version as well. The grow room looks interesting as well.
Also noting that with respect to the "corn" LED 60W bulbs that someone posted about - many have been found to be fakes - just plain LEDs with visible light - so caveat emptor.
Yep, I'm worried about that. So hard to identify the counterfeits. I see cards from reptile shops that will verify UVB but nothing simple for UVC. I watched the above video on using glow beads to verify but without a known good UVC source, I'm still in the dark. I guess I could take a few blood agar plates from the lab home and see if I can sterilize them?
Careful—I think that is how the Cockroach That Ate Cincinnati came to being!Maybe throw some insects in there? Let us know how you test it. I'd like to try something too.
I do think that we should create a useful (does not have to be to lab standards) uv-c meter that has some link to a real one that has NIST certs. its not hard or expensive other than getting access to a good meter, for one calibration test run.
