Wider Coverage - 2 advantages over other products

Negative ions need to reach you. Some products on the market generate negative ions but no ion molecule can be detected at a distance of 1m (3.2ft) away and/or ions can travel in one direction only. The Medical Ion Mini generates a massive amount of negative ions and covers a wide area for the best efficacy.

Generally, negative ion counts dramatically decrease as you go further away from the generator.

More than 8,500,000 (pcs/cc) negative ions are detected at the blow off point of the Medical Ion Mini and approx. 270,000/5,000 (pcs/cc) are detected at 1/3m (3.2/9.8ft) away from the device. This means this model covers a wide area.

*Measured at 25C/50% by a dual coaxial cylinder type air ion counter and a flat type air ion counter. **Figures vary depending on air purification levels and other ambient conditions.

There are ion generators on the market which can disperse negative ions to the blow off direction only and a very few ions can be detected in other directions.

The Medical Ion Mini is designed to disperse negative ions to every direction to cover a wide area. 2000 (pcs/cc) can be detected at 2m (6.5ft) away in the 90 degree direction. You can enjoy negative ions!

Figures vary depending on air purification levels and other ambient conditions.

The amount of the negative ions, which the Medical Ion Mini produces, is too large to perform zero adjustment of the air ion couneter. You can refer to Secrets Behind the Development

3-1. You can manually adjust the ion emission angle.

Rotate the blow off point to the upward direction for better negative ion distribution when located close to the floor.

3-2. It keeps a distance from the desk/table.

You may or may not know but a lot of negative ions released from the generator are absorbed by the floor/wall. The body of the Medical Ion Mini is mounted on the tripod to maintain a certain distance from the installation surface. It is ideal that you install a negative ion generator as far away as possible from the floor/wall.

Stable Performance - Less likely to be influenced by ambient conditions

The Medical Ion Mini is designed to maintain optimum performance under high temperature, high humidity or low temperature, low humidity conditions. Many generators on the market are susceptible to temperature and humidity changes.

User Friendly

You just clean the ionizing needles with a swab when they become dirty.

Caution: Be sure it is unplugged before you clean the needles.

The Ion Detector that comes with this product enables you to make sure that the generator does generate negative ions. You cannot tell if your negative ion generator is working properly without this detector because you cannot see ions with the naked eye.

How can I check if the device is working without the Ion Detector?: If audible sparking sounds are released from the 3 ionizing needles located on the front cover, it is generating ions.

No noise is generated because it does not have a built-in fan. Great for your bedroom!

You can take it with you wherever you go thanks to its lightweight (274g/9.6oz) and compact design.

Its power consumption is only 4W or less.

Life Span - Ionizing needles ensure 5 years+ life span

The ionizing needles emit negative ions and determine the life span of the Medical Ion Mini. Worn-out needles can lower the performance.

Our ionizing needles are made of ultra pure tungsten (99.999%) and ensure 5 years+ life span.

You can continue to use it after the life span of 5 years if negative ions can be detected by the Ion Detector.

Safety to Humans

In contrast to electric discharge type negative ion generators (ionizers), the Medical Ion Mini is designed to minimize ozone production.

Ozone density < 0.001ppm

* IEC standard 32-1 of J60335-2-65 Measured at 25C/50% * Ozone concentration after 24 hour operation in a 7.425m² room (Japan Quality Assurance Organization)

The Medical Ion Mini produces no positive ion that could not only be detrimental to negative ion production but also could be harmful to the human body.

* Measured at 25C/50% by a flat type ion counter and our measurement method

This ion generator emits very little electromagnetic radiation meeting the safety standard.

Efficacy Result

Many users say that they have a good sleep feel fresh air wake up refreshed less likely to get tired chronic migraine has gone etc.

Doctor's Comment

Stress alleviation effects by the Ion House ^*3

*3 The Ion House was used to conduct this experiment. The Medical Ion Mini will produce a similar result as it has the same negative ion generation method as the now discontinued Ion House.

While further research is required to fully understand how negative air ions work on the human body, beneficial effects on health have medically been found.

We used a negative ion generator designed by Daito to conduct this experiment. We did a double-blind test to observe 1-3 under light load conditions such as immersing in cold water and doing a simple calculation.

1. The sympathetic nerve function which has an effect on the skin temperature (peripheral blood flow)
2. Stress hormone
3. Stress immune reaction

As a conclusion, the skin temperature (peripheral blood flow) significantly improves, the cortisol value which shows the endocrinological hormone balance significantly decreases and the number of NK cells which shows the immunological stress index significantly decreases.

It is understood that negative ions generated by the generator help to ease the sympathetic nerve functional acceleration and stress is hormonally/immunology alleviated.

Q & A

Negative ions are dispersed to every direction.

Many negative ion generators found in the market disperse negative ions to one direction only and very few negative ions can be detected in other directions. i.e. Negative ions do not reach you.

This means not only you cannot enjoy negative ion effects but also your generator just wastes electricity.

For example, if you have a heater and only the air around it can be warmed, you will look for a new heater which can distribute the hot air throughout the room. The same goes with negative ion generators. Negative ions have to be distributed throughout the room to enjoy negative ion effects. It is often overlooked and little information can be found but it is one of the most important things to remember when you purchase a negative ion generator.

Ionizing needles ensure 5 years+ life span. The ionizing needles emit negative ions and determine the life span of the Medical Ion Mini. Worn-out needles can lower the performance. Our ionizing needles are made of ultra pure tungsten (99.999%) and ensure 5 years+ life span.

We cannot guarantee that the Medical Ion Mini will work on you because it is not a medical instrument. It depends on your ambient conditions and many other factors. However, we have received a lot of positive feedback from satisfied customers. You can refer to the testimonials.

No, you do not.

Worn-out ionizing needles can lower the performance.

We suggest once every 3-4 months.

It produces 0.001ppm or less, which is less than 1/100 of the safety standard established by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare. No worries at all!

Its power consumption is only 4W or less.

It should be located at least 100/30cm (3.2/1.0ft) away from the floor/wall to ensure the maximum performance. This is because negative ions can be absorbed by the floor/wall.

Yes, you can if negative ions can be detected by the Ion Detector. If not detected, you need to send us the Medical Ion Mini for replacement of the worn-out ionizing needles.

We can replace the needles at approx. US$60 including shipping. Shipping your Medical Ion Mini to us is at your own expense. Please contact us when replacement work is needed. We complete the replacement work and ship to you within 3 days of receipt of the Medical Ion Mini.

No study suggests that a large amount of negative ions have a negative impact on the human body.

You can enjoy the highly concentrated negative ion density in a smaller room. This is why we recommend the Medical Ion Mini even if your room is smaller than 16.50m² (177 ft²).

We suggest you should install 2 units (of the Medical Ion Mini) as 1 unit covers up to 177ft². It is great if you can install the generators so that they are close to where human activity takes place.

We suggest you should mount it on the tripod whenever possible. This is because the negative ions can be absorbed by the table/floor/desk where the device is placed. i.e. The tripod included in the package is designed to keep a certain distance between the negative ion blow off point and the installation surface.

You can use the Medical Ion Mini in most countries as it works with AC100-240V and comes with the AC plug adaptors for the countries.

Yes, you can.
