Air purifying lights

Apparently they work by "coating an energy efficient light bulb with TiO2 (titanium dioxide), a photocatalytic action occurs that effectively eliminates airborne bacteria, mold, viruses, fungi, smoke, dust mites and household odors in rooms up to 10' x 10"

Think that would interfere with any part of the light spectrum? Anyone used them?
 
Or since it eliminates odors do you think it would take scent off your bud since those essences that aren't fully encased by resin particles?

These work but not enough to fully mask a grow. I have several of these both in my grow and outside in the hallway and you could still smell the bud outside my appartment. They are great for bathrooms and hallways further from the grow space just for safeties sake. Spectrum is propper for the flowering stage. ~2700k

//e from what I read earlier they only clean the air directly around them. Perhaps if you slipped a couple into a clear tube with a fan at the end they might work a bit better at filtering the air.
 
Well I just saw all the threads that were posted like this not too long ago.....

Still I worry about the effect of the finishing scent of the bud.

But eliminating airborne viruses and mold? ....tight

Bingo. I've seen these used by a friend, a flower room completely overwhelms them. The key is air tight ducting, and using a combination of tactics. Carbon filters are top of the line, Ona gel or mist is great too, really wanna try their gallon bucket and fan combo. Ozone generators are ok, but don't work as well as the first two methods. Disguise your vent exhaust with fragrant plants in your yard (lavender, rosemary, etc). Create an extra barrier between your room if possible (I have a sealed hallway that also has a fan and some glade misters). Hope this helps do the trick, I think the lights may improve and become a better method for odor removal, but they're less than ideal for now.
