Corona discharge models produce much more ozone per hour but the manufacturers of corona units neglect to tell consumers how they come about that rating,they test the units for rating at optimum conditions which are at 30% relative humidity or less,in most cases much less,as the relative humidity level increases past 30% the ozone output drops dramatically,a corona discharge unit runs on the basis of static electricity,in a moist enviroment like a grow op they are not the best choice,in a 50% relative humidity grow op the levels are so diminished that they have no advantage over UV models,the manufacturers of corona discharge units also neglect to inform customers that high humidity will lead to premature burn out of the discharge plates that produce ozone.
With the decreased ozone output from humidity & the increased replacement time of the discharge plates that comes from operating a corona discharge unit in relative humidity over 30% my reccomendation's are allways for the UV models,they last longer & produce a more reliable amount of ozone with less failure no matter the humidity,a UV model will produce its rated output in 100% humidity where a corone unit will produce zero discharge in a 100% relative humidity climate.
