In this video it is my intention to hopefully save a life – maybe yours… I have (through much research) discovered that there are a number of Fake Air Quality Monitors on the market today, and so I have decided to spend my own money to purchase 6 different Monitors including a Fake to compare against each other. I will be taking one apart to show why it is fake. When it comes to life or death – and knowing the quality of air in our homes, we can’t take a risk just to save money because hopefully most will agree with me that – we should never put a price on the life of a loved one or child or ourselves… If this video stops someone from purchasing a fake air quality monitor that in the end saves their life – then all I can say is – it was well worth spending the money to create this video.


If you like this type of video, please let me know in the comments about a subject you would like to discuss and I will do my best to create a video on that subject, or if you have a video idea for a DIY project, A review of a product or anything else, I will be happy to create that content as well.

Thanks for stopping by, and remember – find someone who needs to laugh, needs to smile, needs to cry, or just simply needs a friend – and make it happen ;).
