The SMART UV Detective's 1000 Dollar Challenge Contest Results

The SMART UV $1000 Challenge

Here are the results from the “SMART UV Detective's
Water Flow Rate $1,000 Challenge Contenders.”

These three companies were selected because they attach a specific UV dose (30,000 uWs/cm2) to their exaggerated UV water flow rate, helping us to prove the UV products' performance exaggeration. We asked Aqua Ultraviolet, Current-USA or W. Lim Corporation to provide the “UV Water Flow Rate Calculation Formula” that they use to calculate their published UV flow rates (the UV performance specifications demonstrated above)

The “SMART UV Detective's Water Flow Rate $1,000 Challenge
2nd Round Deadline is July 31st 2008

And the WINNER is...

- None to date -

Thus far no-one has supplied Emperor Aquatics, Inc. with the “UV Water Flow Rate Calculation Formula” that Aqua Ultraviolet, Gamma UV Current-USA or W. Lim Corporation uses to calculate their published UV flow rates (official $1000 Challenge rules can be found here: Official Challenge Rules).
