Hey there Product Hunters! David here, the creator of purME Air mask. I’m really excited to be here and get to know you all. The idea of a powered mask was brought to us by our backer community during our original purME campaign. Back then some of our backers suggested adding a fan to increase the airflow. We embraced this idea, started exploring the technology and finally came up with purME Air! This unique mask solves 4 common mask-related problems at once: breathability, protection, sterilization and comfort. Featuring twin turbines, it makes your breathing safe and easy by constantly supplying you with fresh and filtered air. What’s more, you can always adjust the airflow to your needs with the 3 power levels to get enough fresh air, whether indoors, in the street, or while working out in a gym. With its 3 modular protection levels—FFP2, KN95 and P100—purME Air can indeed replace all your existing masks. So depending on your environment and needs you choose whether you need 80%, 95%, or 99.9% protection against pollutants, allergens, dust, viruses and other harmful microorganisms. In fact, the HEPA filters that come with purME Air mask have been certified by third-party SGS Labs — the world's leading inspection, verification, testing, and certification company — to FFP1 and KN95 standards, both for filtration and airflow. With purME Air you also don’t need to wash your mask! Simply turn on the built-in UV-C LED while you’re not wearing it and the mask will remove all the microorganisms and odor on its inside in under 5 minutes. That’s absolutely safe for your skin as with its safety switch UV light will only turn on when you want. And another important thing: the mask offers dual protection against air leakage thanks to its tightly sitting silicone facepiece and patent-pending constant pressure technology. The latter ensures the twin innovative turbines bring the same amount of air in and out to prevent leakage from overpressure even in case the facepiece doesn’t sit tight. With its comfortable design, ultralight 80g weight, overhead dynamic straps and rechargeable battery offering 6-8 hours of operation, purME Air is a reliable companion whether at your office, out in the street or in the gym. I’m super excited to share with you this mask that provides maximum protection without sacrificing your comfort. Write to me below and I’ll be happy to answer any of your questions!

@david_huang8 Congratulations on the launch! Does pureME Air prevent fogging of glasses when wearing the mask? If so it could be solving this need gap posted on my problem validation platform - https://needgap.com/problems/194... . You're welcomed to explain how it solves their problem, So those who need purMe Air can find it easily.

Hey! Cool thing! What about eye protection?
Maxim Frostman
@alex_attrack I think you won't get as many viruses through your eyes as much as through your mouth and nose. Should protect you enough, unless, of course, you work at the hospital where the virus concentration is through the roof

Very useful product in today's reality! Congrats on the launch!
David Huang
@ivanna_wendel Thank you Ivanna :)

No FFP2? As FFP2 is the standard for most EU countries, and the minimum requirement for even some parts (a.e. Germany), FFP1 would be too less. Awesome product design and quite the nice idea! I wish you a lot of success.
David Huang
@marvinpoo Hey Marvin, thank you for your comment. We've been receiving this kind of feedback a lot, and just today got the final decision that our backers can choose if they want the FFP2 or FFP1 in the post campaign survey :)
Glen Creaser
Very cool - looks good too!
David Huang
@glen_creaser Thank you

Obvious question here, is it effective against covid-19? I assume it is if it block out 99.5% of microorganisms.
David Huang
@jack_davis7 Yes, it is effective against covid-19. purME Air comes with FFP2/KN95-rated HEPA filters internally. Filters are over 99.5% effective at keeping out common bacteria, viruses, as well as airborne allergens down to 0.1- 0.3um. Also, the mask features a UV-C unit for self-cleaning, beside protection with FFP2/KN95

Can you talk through the mask? I.e. will people understand you, especially when it's a little noisy around, such as at the cash register in the grocery store?
David Huang
@linusgeffarth Sure, you can talk through the mask, as with all masks, you may have to speak louder than usual when wearing purME Air.

Great to see this, really important for people who need it.

@nikkielizdemere Thank you for your kind words

We are ready to develop different face masks everyday, but the main problem is not number of face masks..😑
David Huang
@new_user_314d21aa31 Of course it's not, our goal is to help people protect themselves, and not face any difficulties (hard to breathe, lack of air, not being protected effectively enough) while doing so.
Arthur Andreyev
Looks high-tech and modern. As far as I read from the description, it's also very effective. I wonder what the price is?
AMSTKO
Great projet ! I have a question : can we speak, open the mouth, laugh easily with it ? The mask looks super small
Carla Torvald
