1. What is VioLight and why do I need it?

Anyone concerned with good health and oral hygiene should invest in the VioLight toothbrush sanitization system, as it has been proven to help reduce the spread of germs that can cause sickness (i.e., e coli, botulism, salmonella, etc.). It is ideal for family health, holds up to four toothbrushes (child- and adult-sized) and can even accommodate electric toothbrushes.

2. How does VioLight work and how effective is it?

VioLight uses the same germ-fighting technology found in hospital and dental offices — germicidal UV lightbulb power — to prevent the spread of harmful bacteria. Clinical studies confirm that the VioLight eliminates up to 99.9% of bacteria within a 10-minute time frame.

3. Does the VioLight hold electric toothbrushes?

Yes, the VioLight can accommodate most electric toothbrush heads. Some heads may require the use of the special VIOpegs to hold the smaller electric toothbrush handle. Four VIOpegs are included with every VioLight Toothbrush Sanitizer. The VIOpegs are easily inserted into the slots on your VioLight that hold the electric toothbrush heads.

4. Is the VioLight battery operated or does it use a plug?

The Violight sanitization device is powered by standard household electricity. It draws very low current (9 watt) through a removable, six-foot wall plug.

5. What is the voltage used by VioLight?

The Violight Toothbrush Sanitizer operates on 120V current only. The adapter fits standard USA-type wall sockets only.

6. How do I know the VioLight really kills germs on my toothbrush?

All VioLight products are tested extensively by independent laboratories to insure that 99.9% of germs and bacteria will be killed.

7. Will I have to spend more time caring for my teeth using VioLight?

No more time is spent brushing teeth when using the VioLight. To use the VioLight toothbrush sanitizing system, all you have to do is brush, rinse, store and — with the push of a button — the sanitization process begins. When toothbrush sanitization is complete, VioLight automatically shuts itself off in 10 minutes.

8. How big is the VioLight unit?

Each VioLight unit is the size of an average cup, with skid-proof bottoms and a frosted top that glows with a blue/violet hue when the system is in use. Since VioLight is also a storage facility for your toothbrush, you can simply use it to replace your current holder.

9. How do I clean and maintain the VioLight?

Inside the VioLight is a removable drip cup. The drip cup should be rinsed occasionally as needed.

10. How often do I have to change the UV Bulb?

For the countertop unit, we recommend changing your UV bulb every 18 months. Even though the bulb is rated at 2,000 hours, which would give you many years of regular use, changing the bulb every 18 months will ensure that your bulb is providing maximum germ-fighting efficiency.

11. How much are new bulbs? Where can I get them?

New bulbs are $11.95 and are available through this web site.
