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?
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.
12. What is included with my VIOlight?
The VIOlight Box includes the VIOlight silver base, translucent cap
with safety lock, reflective drip cup for easy cleaning, 4 VIOpegs for
some types of electric toothbrush heads, the VIOlight germicidal
ultraviolet bulb, 120V AC power adaptor with 6-foot cord, and an owner's
manual.
13. How much is VIOlight?
VIOlight
retails for 49.95, plus shipping/handling, which is calculated at
checkout. VIOlight stops germs and bacteria dead in their tracks. Independent
studies prove that the patent-pending VIOlight system eliminates up to
99.9% of bacteria that thrive on your toothbrush. That’s millions of
microscopic bugs that can cause flu, colds and other illnesses, zapped
in minutes!
