Three Air Filters That Can Remove Serious Odors In The Home
During my research into air filtration, I’ve found that these are the best methods to remove odors quickly:
The Brightest EDC Flashlight (300 Lumens)
Surefire has released the Titan Plus, a keychain-sized flashlight that produces 300 lumens in its highest light mode. Prior to this release, the brightest keychain light produced about 80-120 lumens, so this threefold increase is significant.
The Best Camel Wool Clothing
Camel wool is a very soft, insulating fiber. It ranges in size from 15 to 22 microns — putting it in the ultrafine or superfine categories.
The Warmest Wool Blankets For The Bed
Wool is the warmest blanket material, especially wool from animals who live in cold terrains. Wool is a natural material that includes a crimp, which helps to hold in more heat than a material with an open weave. It also provides natural insulation.
The Best Men’s Yak Wool Clothes
Yak down is a very warm fiber that’s also lightweight and soft. It’s a more affordable alternative to the rare qiviut (musk ox down).

The Best Shower Filter Of 2020
If you only want to remove free chlorine and other impurities from your water, I recommend getting a Sprite Shower Filter. This is one of the few showers filters that will remove most free chlorine from your shower.
The Brightest E12 LED Bulbs

The Best Air Filters For Pet Hair and Dander 2020
Pet dander is not the hair or fur of the animal, but is old skin scales which are constantly shed. Animal dander is extremely light weight and tiny in size (approximately 2.5 microns). It can stay airborne for hours.
