Nebelr IonDrive 205 Car Air Purifier Ionizer (NCAP-4) – Designed in Japan by Kyoto Machines, 10 Million Negative Ions, Removes PM2.5, Smoke, Odor, Dust, Portable USB Air Cleaner for Car, Home & Office

I am yet to try it out in my car, but I tried using this in my 120 square feet room on low setting. It reduced the AQI from 300 to 75 as per my Kaiterra monitor. I subsequently changed to fan to high setting but that did not change the count by any amount - it remained at a 75-85 level. You have to press the button once to turn it on at low speed, then once more to switch to high speed, and then pressing it a third time switches the device to standby mode and the light changes to red. In comparison, using an MI air purifier at highest setting in similar conditions reduced the AQI from 300 to 20. Using both the MI purifier and this ionic purifier in combination reduced the AQI to a level of 2-5. I got this one at a good discount with lightening deal and cashback. At around Rs.4k I would say its value for money considering that no filter changes are required every year like other purifiers. A regular honeywell or MI purifier would cost you around 7k for the first year, and then 2500-3000 per year for a filter change. While this one is not in the same league when it comes to purification capacity, if you cannot afford the bigger ones, this one is significantly better than having no air purifier (if you live in a highly polluted city like New Delhi), and it would work in your car as well as small rooms. It has an advantage of being small, power saving and having a tiny fan - the larger ones' fans can create a draft in the room which can be a problem in winters unless you use a heater in your room. The only concern in that case would be the reliability as I don't know how durable it is and if it can last running 8 hours a day every day for years. Maybe it can. Also I don't see any way to clean the device from the inside so far and don't know about potential areas of dirt buildup. It has pass through USB for 2 devices, however that is only 1A in total. Can be used for pass through charging when travelling in a car though I won't recommend charging more than one phone at the same time. The good thing about this one is that it is USB powered, so you can also power this using power bank, and use this in Ola, Uber, etc. Also carry it in your bag as a portable air purifier for hotel rooms, etc. However I have to warn you that the room I was using this in was recently painted (1 week ago, and with low VOC paint) and had a bit of paint smell (I have a very sensitive nose). Keeping the room closed with this purifier running created a very strange smell that the best I can describe is a bit electrical and causes tingling in the nose. I suspect that's because of using this in combination with the paint smell. I The VOC count in the room increased from 175 to 275 - which my monitor described as moving from good to satisfactory. It could be because of buildup of paint fumes in a closed room, or it could also be because this purifier reacted with the paint in some way. I have since then used this in my second bedroom where there were no odours and it has been working fine there. When I try it out in my car I would have a better idea of its odour removing capabilities.

Have been using this for about 20 days now. Works well in open as well as closed spaces. At these times gives a level of confidence and safety when speaking or interacting with someone. Easy to carry. Good looking as well and works as described! Value for money👍 Only drawback I felt is that it always needs a power source and hence not very mobile in that sense. But then connect it to a power bank and you are good to go!

Excellent product. The packaging says it all. It has a slow release pack similar to the iPhones. Once you open it, it has the very well designed NEBELR ensconced inside. First test - The first test was done by powering it up with a battery bank capable of delivering 2.1A load. It switched on with a slight hum. The sound is very faint and does not irritate or disturb you. The video posted shows the prowess of the machine. Second test - Installed in the car. It is compact so does not take up too much space. The bent cable end ensures that there are no ugly ends sticking out. It plugged into the cigarette lighter socket and powered on. I am not very sure, but I surely felt that the air smelled better after 10 minutes. Long term review shall be posted soon.

Not friendly to use in car

The product is first of all expensive no doubt. But, it's completely value for money. Pros: 1. Its compact and build quality is amazing and premium. 2. It's super silent. It's quiter than car indoor sound. I drive a Skoda superb. 3. It works amazingly well. You will instantly start to feel the air getting cleaner and feels like you are breathing mountain air. Cool and light 4. It has 2 usb charging points acting as a charging point in case of multiple phone usage. Cons: 1. Price 2. Normal mode is indicated by blue glow and same is indicated for active/advanced mode. Only stand by mode is indicative by orange glow.

The USB connectors are not placed properly. Cannot connect the USB cable. Item appears to have been repacked. The product is defective and does not seem new.

My Nexon has inbuilt car air purifier, yet I purchased this. This instantly purifies, I visibly find the air quality index improving drastically on my car's infotainment screen, has an appealing design and almost no noise. Must have product for your car.

Sturdy metallic body. This air purifier doesn’t have maintenance headache like changing filters every 3 to 4 months unlike other purifiers those have Hipa filters. After saturation, Hipa filter air purifiers doesn’t clean air, instead pollute the air. It is always to go with only ionic filters those doesn’t have filter replacement headaches. Pros: Sturdy metallic body and looks No filter replaced burden, just install and forget Cons: No indication of air quality No auto mode for fan speed One star less due to above mentioned Cons
