Aqua Ozone Ultraviolet Sterilizers

Any one have one in use, any info about these?

I don't think that was designed for aquarium use let alone confined spaces. I guess it could work but it uses a very slow flow rate to make up for it's small volume. It seems like there would be a loot of excess ozone escaping in the ozone with that thing too.

Edit: Apparently that is designed for drip irrigation systems. I'd pass..

Where'd you read that?

It says:

The ozone UV units are ideal for water features. Using the same germicidal rays as the sun, but hundreds of times stronger UV offers a reliable, cost effective, environmentally friendly alternative to chemicals and their resulting bi-products.

Ozone is highly effective in removing color, organics and pesticides. It is an economical natural and non-polluting method. Water flows through the unit body and is treated by the UV’s germicidal rays. The Ozone is then injected by the consumer’s venturi into the water line adding residual effectiveness.
