"Get back here! If you go by yourself, you'll just be doing what KingsMinch wants!" Rocket yelled into his comm as he watched through a pane of glass as Danny ran down the hallway. Calling out to him was in vain. She had deactivated her comm to concentrate and was currently firing her blasters at any enemies that crossed her path. Rocket could only watch this and hope it wasn't some kind of trap.

Danny continued to advance, while her breathing was heavy and agitated from shooting, dodging, and kicking her enemies. Something in her mind told her that this was the right thing to do. She knew KingsMinch was there, somewhere on the cruise ship, she sensed it. Danny turned right into a large hallway and found KingsMinch was waiting for her, smiling ear-to-ear.

"I knew you'd be here, you filthy pig!" Danny shouted as she aimed both guns at him. She’d waited for this moment for so many years. Even when she returned from the Snap, she kept thinking that fate had given her a second chance to enact her revenge. Adrenaline ran through every part of her body, and her heavy, frantic breathing continued.

"Well, congratulations! You found me!" he exclaimed while clapping and maintaining his horrid smile, "Or so I would like to say..."

BAM!

The shot sailed through KingsMinch, leaving a sizable hole in his head. Unfortunately for Danny, this revealed that this KingsMinch was nothing more than an android. Danny had fallen for the goading.

Danny hated agreeing with Rocket, and she hated that she had been so emotional. And now, also she hated KingsMinch even more now that she could hear his laughing at her continue.

“Hoo hoo ho… Well, I don't want you to go empty-handed, dear!” the humanoid pig cackled. “Let me show you my latest toy…”

Danny raised an eyebrow; apart from her and the android that lay on the floor, there was no one else in that room. The large door behind her then opened, and a humanoid-looking person joined her in the room. He wore a tactical suit that reminded her of the warplane pilots from her planet, only with futuristic touches. He also wore that helmet covered a large part of his face, only revealing his jaw.

“Let me introduce you to… Oh my… Oh my!” KingsMinch began to laugh until he was gasping for breath, all while Danny kept her weapons pointed on the masked man, "He doesn't have a name, so I'll call him "Corsair". Yes, that's the name of the armor he's wearing, so I'll call him that!"

The masked man then drew his sword. It looked like a saber but with a red fluorescent light instead of a metal blade. Danny gulped; close combat was also her specialty, but going up against a swordsman was something some rarely did.

“Well, I must go, but I hope you and your friends have fun… Oh! And you should know this cruise ship will self-destruct in a few minutes. Corsair, don't waste too much time fighting her,” KingsMinch giggled just before he hung up.

The masked man adjusted so he was in a fighting stance, and Danny did the same.

"Whatever he's paying you, it isn't worth it," she said as her weapons remained trained on him, her mind ran through multiple scenarios that would allow to escape or maybe even avoid him long enough to devise a plan to eliminate him completely.

In the blink of an eye, Corsair closed the distance between them, aiming for Danny’s head while going in for an attack, and Danny instinctively ducked to avoid him before kicking and aiming for his knees. He jumped back, and Danny took advantage of this moment and fired. Consair had anticipated this attack and deflected her shots with his saber.

"Insert a reference to “Star Wars” here!" she said sarcastically as she kept firing, only to have each of her attacks deflected at an impressive speed. Danny then switched it up, firing off one blaster while tossing out a smoke bomb toward Corsair.

Corsair sliced the bomb in half, and a thick blanket of smoke covered the room. Danny immediately put on her goggles to peer through the smoke, and within a moment Corsair’s blade jabbed at her. She instinctively jerked away, saving her from ending up the victim of the weapon, but unfortunately, the heat from the saber short-circuited her goggles. Her goggles had overloaded, knocking out her sight.

She pulled off her goggles, and just at that moment she saw her opponent was heading straight towards her. Danny got up and tried to shoot again, but he was dodging faster, and he lunged towards her. He delivered a punch to her stomach, knocking the air out of her, then kicked her so that she fell against a wall and her weapons scattered on the floor.

"Well, I admit it," she panted heavily as she tried to catch her breath, "I underestimated you!"

Danny drew her glowing hunting knife, ready to continue fighting.

Her opponent ran towards her again, trying to kick the knife out of her hands, but Danny wouldn't give him the opportunity. As he tried, she moved the knife away and delivered a kick to him. He tried to move away from Danny’s kick and the weapon, but. it was hard to focus on doing both at the same time.

The exchange of blows lasted a few minutes more, until suddenly a series of shots passed by the masked man. He had to dodge these shots by jumping and moving away from Danny quickly.

"Alright loser, those were warnings!" Rocket had arrived, looking a bit agitated. This was probably because he had to run a long way to get from one end of the cruise ship to the other.

"Good!" Danny reached up and pressed a button on her computer, allowing her weapons to rise from the floor and back up to her, "Now between the two of us we can handle this guy!"

"What? No!" Rocket continued to fire, “Take your toys and let's get out of here! This place is going to be blown to pieces, and I intend on staying intact!"

Corsair managed to reach his saber and deflected each shot, starting to approach Rocket. Danny had no choice but to throw another smoke bomb and take advantage of the confusion. She ran towards his partner and together they left the fight.

When they arrived at the hangar Danny noticed that the Kite was not there, but only a smaller ship.

"I’ll drive the trash can," Rocket said, but Danny stepped forward and sat down.

"I will drive MY trash can!" she replied, somewhat annoyed. Rocket was left with no choice but to sit on her lap, after all the ship was small and there was only one seat.

"At least I was right about the trap," he muttered to himself, crossing his arms.

Danny turned the ship on, and moments later they were driving away from the scene. They both could see the masked watching them from the hangar. Corsair didn't take his eyes off them until they were out of sight.

For a while, they stayed in complete silence, until Danny finally said, "That Corsair guy... He knew my movements... He fought as if he knew me!"

"Maybe KingsMinch knows more about you than you think," Rocket replied. "That means two things; either KingsMinch created it to respond to any situation or..."

"Or?"

“Or he created it specifically to eliminate you,” he finished.

"I'm sure I'll know the next time I see him," Danny sighed as she kept her eyes straight ahead. "For now, we have to regroup."

Rocket nodded, and silence once again fell upon the small ship.

“Let me drive.”

"I said no."

Air purifiers or Air ionisers? Choosing the perfect Air security device for you.

One of the most talked-about things after the pandemic has been Air security and Air safety and how we can minimize the harmful effects of outdoor as-well-as indoor air pollutants on our health.

According to the WHO guidelines, we should wear a mask to protect ourselves from outdoor pollution. But what about indoors? You cannot sit wearing a mask in your room.

The air inside is five times more harmful and hazardous than the air outside. Studies from the United States and Europe show that persons in industrialized nations spend more than 90 per cent of their time indoors. Infants, their mothers, the elderly and people suffering from chronic diseases make up the majority of this 90 per cent. And are exposed to harmful pollutants like VOCs, PM10 and PM 2.5.

To save our family and friends from the diseases caused by indoor air pollution such as lung cancer, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease(COPD), strokes and Chronic Respiratory disease, we need some kind of air security system in our homes to breathe cleaner air.

We have various kinds of air purifiers with different technologies available in the market. Among all the others, Ionisers and HEPA filters are the most booming air purifiers known today.

Let’s go through and compare both kinds of purifiers, one by one.

Air purifiers v/s Ionisers

Technology

Air purifiers and Ionisers both perform the same function. They cleanse the air, remove allergens and pollutants and are capable of eliminating pollutants as small as 0.3 to 0.1 microns. Then how are they different? Because of the technology they use.

Air purifiers

It consists of a fan and a filter or a series of filters. The fan sucks in the air and passes it through a combination of filters. These filters trap particles, letting clean air be pushed back into the room to circulate.

Usually, the air purifiers use the following two types of filters: -

● Aluminium filters- These trap larger particles like dust, pet dander and hair.

● HEPA filters- High-Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filters are capable of capturing the smallest of the dust particles, moulds and spores.

The best working filters use a combination of both Aluminium and HEPA filters.

Ionisers

It uses the chemical properties of ions to remove the particles and microbes from the air. It creates negative ions using electricity and discharges them into the room then the negatively charged ions bind into the airborne particles like dust and smoke. As these particles become heavier, they eventually land on surfaces like floors and furniture and may even stick to the walls.

Pros

Air Purifiers

● Air purifiers work for a wider range of particles. Aluminium filters trap large particles like dust and pollen. On the other hand, HEPA filters trap small particles like pet dander, bacteria and viruses.

● HEPA filters are capable of removing small particles down to 0.3 microns.

● Air purifiers do not have any harmful emissions.

● Unlike Ionisers, all the contaminants and pollutants are sucked in through the fan. So, there is no need to clean the room again and again.

● Some special kinds of filters are even capable of removing microbes.

● It is best for people suffering from allergies and asthma.

Ionisers

● Ionisers are perfectly capable of purifying small as well as large spaces. It works better than any air purifier in large areas.

● It’s low maintenance and cost-effective.

● No parts like filters need to be replaced.

● It removes smaller particles such as tobacco smoke and smog, which measures between 0.01 to 0.1 microns.

● Some studies show that negative ions can slow the growth of viruses and can kill bacteria, fungi and molds.

Cons

Air Purifiers

● It requires regular maintenance. Pre-filters require cleaning every 30 days.

● It is not pocket friendly as HEPA filters last up to a year after that it's recommended to change the filters.

● It is noisy and may hinder your sleep.

● Most air purifiers are incapable of removing smoke and odour.

Ionisers

● It is not suitable for removing large particles like dust and pollen.

● You may find your furniture a lot dirtier as the pollutants settle on surfaces.

● Some of them emit Ozone which is extremely harmful to health.

● Low effectiveness due to low airflow rates.

So having discussed both the Air purifiers and Air Ionisers, we have some points in our hand.

· Both have their merits and demerits.

· Both are not suitable for everyone.

· Every house is different and so are its needs.

Let's be honest, People don’t care whether it's an Air purifier or an Ioniser, people need complete Air security and air safety.

So, after doing a lot of research and putting in a lot of hard work, we have brought you the best of both worlds.Tenshield

What is Tenshield?

Tenshield is an air security device (not to confuse it with an air purifier or Ioniser) brought to you by Freshcraft

What makes Tenshield different from an Air purifier or Air Ioniser?

How does it work?

It has a lot of similarities to that of an air ioniser. But it does not emit ozone which most ionizers do! Apart from releasing a large number of negative ions, which sticks to the tiniest of airborne particles, it ionises the incoming gasses and chF G emically alters them making the air free from harmful gasses. It can kill or deactivate airborne microorganisms too.

Pros

● It is good at removing pet dander, mold spores, bacteria and viruses from the air.

● Unlike Air purifiers, it eliminates odour.

● Unlike Ionisers, it is capable of removing bigger particles like dust and pollen.

● Forget the noise, they offer ultra-silence.

● It’s energy-efficient and low maintenance i.e. it is pocket friendly.

● And my favourite one. Even after using the ionisation technology, it does not release Ozone.

Cons

● It works while plugged in, No battery support.

● No metallic objects can be placed near the device because of the electrostatic discharge.

But the merits clearly outweigh the demerits, and I haven’t mentioned all the advantages Tenshield has over any Air purifier or Ioniser.

It is called an Absolute Air Security Device for a reason. It offers ultra Air safety to your home and family without releasing any harmful byproduct. It delivers what it promises.

If you are looking forward to investing in an Air security device, you should definitely go for Tenshield.

Stormborn

The first time I read ASOIAF, I remember that one of the things that first drew my attention to Dany as a character was the name “Stormborn.” It was such a small thing, but back then I couldn’t help but think it was meaningful that this little girl, shy, terrified, abused and at the mercy of the men around her, could also carry such a powerful sounding name, at least in my opinion.

Beneath an arch of twining stone leaves, a eunuch sang their coming. "Viserys of the House Targaryen, the Third of his Name," he called in a high, sweet voice, "King of the Andals and the Rhoynar and the First Men, Lord of the Seven Kingdoms and Protector of the Realm. His sister, Daenerys Stormborn, Princess of Dragonstone. His honorable host, Illyrio Mopatis, Magister of the Free City of Pentos."—aGoT, Daenerys I.

This happens during Dany’s very first chapter, and while her brother is announced by a litany of titles, it was Dany’s epithet that really caught my attention. In the next passage we get an explanation for it.

She had been born on Dragonstone nine moons after their flight, while a raging summer storm threatened to rip the island fastness apart. They said that storm was terrible. The Targaryen fleet was smashed while it lay at anchor, and huge stone blocks were ripped from the parapets and sent hurtling into the wild waters of the narrow sea. Her mother had died birthing her, and for that her brother Viserys had never forgiven her.—aGoT, Daenerys I.

Dany often uses that name when she is scared or in doubt, to gather strength and to assert herself, not just outloud to others but within her own internal narrative.

There was no one to talk to. Khal Drogo shouted commands and jests down to his bloodriders, and laughed at their replies, but he scarcely glanced at Dany beside him. [...]

So she sat in her wedding silks, nursing a cup of honeyed wine, afraid to eat, talking silently to herself. I am blood of the dragon, she told herself. I am Daenerys Stormborn, Princess of Dragonstone, of the blood and seed of Aegon the Conqueror.—aGoT, Daenerys II.

The Dothraki exchanged uncertain glances. "Khaleesi," the handmaid Irri explained, as if to a child, "Jhaqo is a khal now, with twenty thousand riders at his back."

She lifted her head. "And I am Daenerys Stormborn, Daenerys of House Targaryen, of the blood of Aegon the Conqueror and Maegor the Cruel and old Valyria before them. I am the dragon's daughter, and I swear to you, these men will die screaming. Now bring me to Khal Drogo."—aGoT, Daenerys IX.

"The corsair wanted only a hundred, your worship," Dany heard [Missandei] say. [Kraznys mo Nakloz] poked her with the end of the whip. "Consairs are all liars. He'll buy them all. Tell her that, girl."

Dany knew she would take more than a hundred, if she took any at all. "Remind your Good Master of who I am. Remind him that I am Daenerys Stormborn, Mother of Dragons, the Unburnt, trueborn queen of the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros. My blood is the blood of Aegon the Conqueror, and of old Valyria before him."—aSoS, Daenerys II.

"Woman, you bray like an ass, and make no more sense."

"Woman?" She chuckled. "Is that meant to insult me? I would return the slap, if I took you for a man." Dany met his stare. "I am Daenerys Stormborn of House Targaryen, the Unburnt, Mother of Dragons, khaleesi to Drogo's riders, and queen of the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros."—aSoS, Daenerys IV.

And while her name is something that Dany draws strength from, she recognizes that a storm can be at times frightening, though not to her.

No squall could frighten Dany, though. Daenerys Stormborn, she was called, for she had come howling into the world on distant Dragonstone as the greatest storm in the memory of Westeros howled outside, a storm so fierce that it ripped gargoyles from the castle walls and smashed her father's fleet to kindling.

The narrow sea was often stormy, and Dany had crossed it half a hundred times as a girl, running from one Free City to the next half a step ahead of the Usurper's hired knives. She loved the sea. She liked the sharp salty smell of the air, and the vastness of horizons bounded only by a vault of azure sky above. It made her feel small, but free as well.—aSoS, Daenerys I.

Dany had never looked upon the Usurper's face, yet seldom a day had passed when she had not thought of him. His great shadow had lain across her since the hour of her birth, when she came forth amidst blood and storm into a world where she no longer had a place. And now this ebony stranger had lifted that shadow.—aCoK, Daenerys II.

Dany is not the only POV to have storm imagery in her chapters, but I find the way GRRM implements them with her rather interesting. For example, when it comes to the magic in her storyline, he uses a lot of language related to rain and storm. This scene, when sacrifices Mirri Maz Duur, being the most prominent and important for me.

She heard a crack, the sound of shattering stone. The platform of wood and brush and grass began to shift and collapse in upon itself. Bits of burning wood slid down at her, and Dany was showered with ash and cinders. And something else came crashing down, bouncing and rolling, to land at her feet; a chunk of curved rock, pale and veined with gold, broken and smoking. The roaring filled the world, yet dimly through the firefall Dany heard women shriek and children cry out in wonder.

Only death can pay for life.

And there came a second crack, loud and sharp as thunder, and the smoke stirred and whirled around her and the pyre shifted, the logs exploding as the fire touched their secret hearts. She heard the screams of frightened horses, and the voices of the Dothraki raised in shouts of fear and terror, and Ser Jorah calling her name and cursing. No, she wanted to shout to him, no, my good knight, do not fear for me. The fire is mine. I am Daenerys Stormborn, daughter of dragons, bride of dragons, mother of dragons, don't you see? Don't you SEE? With a belch of flame and smoke that reached thirty feet into the sky, the pyre collapsed and came down around her. Unafraid, Dany stepped forward into the firestorm, calling to her children.

The third crack was as loud and sharp as the breaking of the world.—aGoT, Daenerys X.

And afterwards, is not the breaking of the world that comes, but dragons; Dany is successful in what a lot of her ancestors tried and failed to do, she brings back dragons after hundreds of years. She brings magic back into the world. Three dragons that, in the future, will be essential for saving the world, not break it.

Dany hears three cracks while she births her dragons, and we already know how significant that number is in Dany’s narrative, as we see when she enters the House of the Undying, where there are other significant allusions to storms and her name.

[...] As Dany walked to the empty chair at the foot of the table, they did not stir, nor speak, nor turn to face her. There was no sound but the slow, deep beat of the rotting heart.

. . . mother of dragons . . . came a voice, part

whisper and part moan . . . dragons . . . drag-

ons . . . dragons . . . other voices echoed in the gloom. [...] It was hard to summon the will to speak, to recall the words she had practiced so assiduously. "I am Daenerys Stormborn of House Targaryen, Queen of the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros." Do they hear me? Why don't they move? She sat, folding her hands in her lap. "Grant me your counsel, and speak to me with the wisdom of those who have conquered death."—aCoK, Daenerys IV.

. . . mother of dragons . . . child of three . . .

"Three?" She did not understand.

. . . three heads has the dragon . . . the ghost chorus yammered inside her skull with never a lip moving, never a breath stirring the still blue air. . . . mother of dragons . . . child of storm . . . The whispers became a swirling song. . . . three fires must you light . . . one for life and one for death and one to love . . . Her own heart was beating in unison to the one that floated before her, blue and corrupt . . . three mounts must you ride . . . one to bed and one to dread and one to love . . . The voices were growing louder, she realized, and it seemed her heart was slowing, and even her breath. . . . three treasons will you know . . . once for blood and once for gold and once for love . . .—aCoK, Daenerys IV.

Of course these are not the only mentions of storms or “Stormborn” in Dany’s chapters, but I found them to be most significant, at least to me. Often times, when I read criticism on Dany, it is related to the destruction people argue Dany, and her dragons, can rain upon the world, or the destruction she’s already created in Essos with her war on slavery, and I actually don’t disagree completely with that notion. Yes, Dany and her dragons can—and in some instances have—bring destruction, but that is what storms do; they can bring down something, only to help something new grow back up.

Daenerys is fire, but she can also be rain, washing down the old and rotten society built on the backs of slaves and helping something new and better be born in its place. And yes, storms can be scary, but we couldn’t possibly survive without them, not without the water that nurtures us and that is so essential for life to grow anew.

#it’s always loving dany hours so here... have this <3 #i got cheesy by the end don’t mind me #daenerys targaryen #daenerys meta #dany meta #pro daenerys #asoiaf #asoiaf meta #a song of ice and fire #valyrianscrolls #meta #my meta

Our Jolly Rogers Jacket

Special Limited Edition

This jacket is based on the jacket worn by Colonel Arthur H. Rogers, Commander of the 90th Bombardment Group, also known as “THE JOLLY ROGERS” (named after him), which turned out by recorded facts to be "the Best Damn Heavy Bombardment Group" in the world.

The artwork on the back of our jacket is the same as the nose art of Col. Arthur’s own bomber aircraft, the B-24D-5-CO Liberator called "Susbella / Connell's Special" with Serial Number 41-23765.

Late in 1942, this B-24 was modified at Hickham Field, Hawaii, adding a Consair A-6 twin 50 caliber tail turret to the nose, the first bomber with this addition, making it one of the key B-24's of the war. The “Special” project was conceived by Col. A. H. Rogers himself.

The jacket features:

Hand painted 90th Bombardment Group patch

Hand painted 320th Bomb Squadron “Moby Dick” patch

Handmade multi layer leather 5th Air Force shoulder roundel patch

Handmade rank insignia of Colonel

Handmade Name Plate – Leather “ARTHUR H. ROGERS”

Visite Nashville, la ciudad de la música

Estados Unidos.- Nashville, en Tenessee, es conocida como la ciudad de la música country, el pollo picante y de quienes aman la diversión.

En el centro de la ciudad se ubica el Salón de la Fama de la Música Contry, creado en 1967. Es un lugar muy visitado por los turistas. Su museo cuenta con memorabilia de los más famosos exponentes del country y en las pantallas táctiles interactivas es posible conocer la historia de este género musical. Es escenario además de espectáculos en vivo.

El Muro de la Fama está repleto de discos de oro y en la tienda encontrará recuerdos únicos que vale la pena llevar a casa.

En la ciudad está la única réplica del Partenón de Atenas que existe en el mundo.

Aunque usted no lo crea, uno de los lugares más famoses de Nashville es un baño. El baño de hombres del hotel Hermitage es tan popular, que ahora se permite la entrada de mujeres. ¿La razón? El recinto, de estilo art deco fue inaugurado en 1910, y cuenta con paredes de azulejos de vidrio emplomado verdes y negros, pisos de terrazo auténtico, accesorios color verde lima y dos sillas para pulir zapatos. Está prácticamente intacto, igual a como fue inaugurado.

En el Grand Ole Opry se presentan tanto grandes estrellas como aquellas que todavía están en búsqueda de la fama. Tiene capacidad para 5.000 personas y desde cualquier asiento la vista es privilegiada. Tome un tour para ver lo que ocurre detrás del escenario, los camerinos y las entradas exclusivas para artistas. Tómese una foto en el escenario. Vale la pena.

Centro de Nashville

En el callejón Printers verá los edificios más representativos del pasado de Nashville. Durante la noche hay infinidad de locales con presentaciones en vivo rica comida y tragos. En Bourbon Street Blues la atmósfera es única. Parece sacada de una vieja película de mediados del siglo pasado.

Las destilerías de Tennessee son famosas en el mundo entero. Dos de ellas están justo en el centro de Nashville: Baeachtree y Consair Artisan. Y en las afueras de la ciudad está la famosa destilería de Jack Daniels, la marca de whisky más exitosa del mundo. Aproveche y compre una botella personalizada y regalos en la tienda de antiguedades.

Destilería Jack Daniel’s

Otro lugar imperdible es el Bluebird Cafe. Compre sus entradas con tiempo. Salen a la venta todos los lunes y se agotan en cinco minutos. Es el lugar favorito de las estrellas del country de la nueva escuela.

En la ciudad está la única réplica del Partenón de Atenas que existe en el mundo. Así como la reproducción de la estatua de oro de Atenea Partenos, una galería de arte y un centro informativo.

Si quiere ver cómo era una antigua plantación de algodón, vaya a Belle Meade Plantation. Fue el hogar de una de las familias más ricas y poderosas de Tennessee. Tome el recorrido por sus instalaciones que culmina con una degustación de vinos.

Salón de la Fama de Nashville

Otro viñedo que debe visitar está en Arrington, a 40 kilómetros al sur de Nashville. Lleve su propio almuerzo para disfrutarlo en las mesas de picnic al aire libre. Haga la visita guiada que incluye la cata de vinos, no se arrepentirá.

El plato típico de Nashville es el pollo frito, marinado en mantequilla, rebozado y untado con una pasta muy picante de pimienta roja. Si no le gusta la comida muy condimentada, mejor no la pruebe, y busque la opción menos picante.

United Record Pressing fabrica discos de vinilo desde 1949. Todos los viernes hacen recorridos por el establecimiento. El lugar forma parte de de la historia de la música.

Air purifiers or Air ionisers? Choosing the perfect Air security device for you.

One of the most talked-about things after the pandemic has been Air security and Air safety and how we can minimize the harmful effects of outdoor as-well-as indoor air pollutants on our health.

According to the WHO guidelines, we should wear a mask to protect ourselves from outdoor pollution. But what about indoors? You cannot sit wearing a mask in your room.

We have various kinds of air purifiers with different technologies available in the market. Among all the others, Ionisers and HEPA filters are the most booming air purifiers known today.

Let’s go through and compare both kinds of purifiers, one by one.

Air purifiers v/s Ionisers

Technology

Air purifiers

Usually, the air purifiers use the following two types of filters: -

● Aluminium filters- These trap larger particles like dust, pet dander and hair.

● HEPA filters- High-Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filters are capable of capturing the smallest of the dust particles, moulds and spores.

The best working filters use a combination of both Aluminium and HEPA filters.

Ionisers

Pros

Air Purifiers

● HEPA filters are capable of removing small particles down to 0.3 microns.

● Air purifiers do not have any harmful emissions.

● Unlike Ionisers, all the contaminants and pollutants are sucked in through the fan. So, there is no need to clean the room again and again.

● Some special kinds of filters are even capable of removing microbes.

● It is best for people suffering from allergies and asthma.

Ionisers

● Ionisers are perfectly capable of purifying small as well as large spaces. It works better than any air purifier in large areas.

● It’s low maintenance and cost-effective.

● No parts like filters need to be replaced.

● It removes smaller particles such as tobacco smoke and smog, which measures between 0.01 to 0.1 microns.

● Some studies show that negative ions can slow the growth of viruses and can kill bacteria, fungi and molds.

Cons

Air Purifiers

● It requires regular maintenance. Pre-filters require cleaning every 30 days.

● It is not pocket friendly as HEPA filters last up to a year after that it's recommended to change the filters.

● It is noisy and may hinder your sleep.

● Most air purifiers are incapable of removing smoke and odour.

Ionisers

● It is not suitable for removing large particles like dust and pollen.

● You may find your furniture a lot dirtier as the pollutants settle on surfaces.

● Some of them emit Ozone which is extremely harmful to health.

● Low effectiveness due to low airflow rates.

So having discussed both the Air purifiers and Air Ionisers, we have some points in our hand.

· Both have their merits and demerits.

· Both are not suitable for everyone.

· Every house is different and so are its needs.

Let's be honest, People don’t care whether it's an Air purifier or an Ioniser, people need complete Air security and air safety.

So, after doing a lot of research and putting in a lot of hard work, we have brought you the best of both worlds.Tenshield

What is Tenshield?

Tenshield is an air security device (not to confuse it with an air purifier or Ioniser) brought to you by Freshcraft

What makes Tenshield different from an Air purifier or Air Ioniser?

How does it work?

Pros

● It is good at removing pet dander, mold spores, bacteria and viruses from the air.

● Unlike Air purifiers, it eliminates odour.

● Unlike Ionisers, it is capable of removing bigger particles like dust and pollen.

● Forget the noise, they offer ultra-silence.

● It’s energy-efficient and low maintenance i.e. it is pocket friendly.

● And my favourite one. Even after using the ionisation technology, it does not release Ozone.

Cons

● It works while plugged in, No battery support.

● No metallic objects can be placed near the device because of the electrostatic discharge.

But the merits clearly outweigh the demerits, and I haven’t mentioned all the advantages Tenshield has over any Air purifier or Ioniser.

It is called an Absolute Air Security Device for a reason. It offers ultra Air safety to your home and family without releasing any harmful byproduct. It delivers what it promises.

If you are looking forward to investing in an Air security device, you should definitely go for Tenshield.
