Welcome to Ionizer Research.
I'm Bob "The Ionizer Guy" with some more information for your consideration
today we're going to be comparing 3 machines all of them are priced right around
under a thousand dollars, somewhere in that range.
which is why we're comparing these three machines up against each other
we're going to start off with the LG's Nexus
blue and the first thing I want to say about this machine
is that it is not an LG machine. I contacted LG myself, remember I work for you
I did a little bit of investigation and I called the company
and they told me there's no such thing as an LG water ionizer, they don't make
water ionizers.
I understand why the company is doing it, trying to get a competitive edge being
newer to the market. There's also a Samsung Vesta out there,
none of these machines up here but there is a Samsung Vesta out there
claiming to be it a Samsung water ionizer. I did the same thing, contacted
Samsung, they don't make water ionizer so be aware people,
there is companies out there claiming to be something that they're not.
If this was an LG water ionizer you would see the logo
if you know anything about corporate branding, there would be an LG logo on here
or here's the box for this machine. There would be an LG logo on this box...
no LG anywhere. What you're seeing is
Iownyea, which is actually the company who makes this machine.
So anyway, lets start looking at this machine,
the overall look of the machine is a nice machine, it's
got a good design to it. One of the things I do notice
is the manual flow control, which
I'm not a big fan of if you want to get stronger pH levels you're going to have to
slow your water down. If you want to get weaker pH levels you're going to have to
turn your water up.
So the Nexus Blue water ionizer
it's actually only sold on one website out there,
not really a big company behind it, like I said it is newer to the market so
longevity is definitely a question with this machine.
This machine here is the Hydrent 2505,
overall nice looking machine I like the LCD touchscreen,
this is actually this machine actually uses parts from
Tyent USA, they buy their parts from Tyent so the
internal parts in this machine are of good quality. One of the negative
things I could say about
Hydrent is their marketing, it's all basically done by word of mouth
the marketing's not really great on the machine are so
one thing they could do is improve their marketing they probably sell a ton of them
because the
machine actually does produce good quality alkaline water.
This machine here is the Air Water Life,
from the Air Water Life Aqua 7.
Also known as Alive Waters, also known as Real Spirit USA, which ever you want
to choose, there's a lot of confusion out there.
This machine actually has no flow control.
There's no on/off switch, there's no solenoid which would basically give you power
to make it an on/off switch. If you T this machine into your cold water line,
which is my preferred method,
every time you get a glass of water you're gonna have to go underneath the sink
and turn your cold water on and you're gonna have to go back under to turn it
back off again so,
there's not really a lot of positive things like it say about the Air Water
Life machine.
It's made in China, I don't really recommend any machine that are made in
China so.
One thing you're not gonna see me do with these machines
is your not gonna see me do with the average pH test where
you know you drop a couple reagent drops in. I'll do that for you now real quick just
to show you.
You're going to get purple water, okay,
that's only the tip of the iceberg. What I'm gonna do when the next segment is
I'm gonna take all these machines apart
I'm gonna show you what's inside in these machines and show you why the
results
will always equal to what the parts are that are inside the machines.
So let's start that now, I'm gonna go into the next segment here,
open up these machines see what we have inside of them. Okay for the next segment
here I took these machines apart, it took me a little while.
First thing we're gonna start off showing you is the water cell.
The water cell is the
housing that you're gonna find the plates in these machines or electrodes they're
known as.
I want to give you a measurement of this, I'm gonna show you
the total surface area of this water cell. So this water cell
is three inches wide,
by five and a half inches long.
So what you do is you time three inches by five and a half inches, that
gives you
16 and a half inches. You times that by the number of plates that are found
in this water cell and your total surface area is
eighty two and a half inches. Now on this company's website
they do say that they have a solid
and a mesh so,were going to give them the benefit of the doubt
and what you do is when you get a mesh, you going to have better electrical conductivity
with the water so you add twenty percent
so it will be eighty two and a half inches by 20 percent, that give you ninety nine
total
square inches of surface area found on the Nexus Blue water ionizer.
Now the measurements for the Air Water Life Aqua 7.
The measurements are exactly the same,
three inches,
by five and a half inches.
Now this water cell has solid plates inside,
so you're not going to get that extra 20 percent just so you know when I do the
numbers,
that's the reason why you're not getting any additional 20 percent. This will be
the same thing you would be three by five
gives you 16 and a half inches, you times that by the number a plates
in this water cell, which is seven and you're going to end up with 115 total
square inches of surface area
from the Air Water Life Aqua ionizer. Moving on to the Hydrent, noticeably a
bigger water cell.
Let's do the measurements, seven inches,
by three and a half inches, so this is
noticeably bigger water cell. When you do the math on this
water cell your gonna have 3 and a half inches,
by 7 inches, that gives you twenty four and a half inches.
Times that by the number of plate again, the total surface area
on this, the Hydrent would be 120 two-and-a-half,
times up by the extra 20 percent for this is a solid mesh hybrid plate
and you're going to end up with 147 as the total square inches a surface area
on this.
So with the Nexus blue you have ninety-nine,
with the Air Water Life you have 115,
and with the Hydrent you have 147 total square inches of surface area.
The more surface area, the better the higher the pH levels the better the
negative antioxidant levels so,
in this category, the Hydrent wins.
Okay so next thing we're going to talk about is the power supplies.
There's too basic power supplies you can have on a water ionizer, one being a
transformer which you can find in the Nexus,
and the Air Water Life, and other being an SMPS power supply.
Now if you see any people out there or companies out there claiming that they
have not a non-electric
water ionizer, people there's no such thing, it's called an alkalizer
okay. All it is a basic filter that's adding minerals to your water,
boosting the pH of the water a little bit, giving you a little bit negative
antioxidants or the orp value,
but you can get the same results just by adding a little baking soda to your water,
you're not getting the actual ionization which is the micro clustering of the
water,
that's what allows everything to be easily absorbed into your body,
turns the minerals into electrolytes and your body absorbs on that takes the in,
so,
just be leery of non-electric, ionizers no such thing, they're
called alkalizers and they don't work, so if you have no plates and no power
you're getting no results. Alright so now let's talk about the actual power
supplies in these systems.
We're going to start off with the the Nexus Blue, excuse my cut over the
camera here.
The Nexus Blue in the back of this machine here to see a transformer,
okay. Now you have the
Air Water Life which is another style of the transformer,
there's no housing around it which was a little strange but, anyway this is
a transformer. Now when you look at the
the Hydrent machine you're gonna see it has it an SMPS
power supply in it, you know all the things look the same the
motherboards but they're not that power supply
built in through this motherboard so there's no need for transformer
and one of the negative things I could say about a transformer
is they get hot, if you know the old
tube TVs, if you feel the back of them they they get hot
or you know that the plug thats plugged into your laptop, you can feel the little
box that's connected to plug, that gets hot.
That's a transformer and the biggest knock on them is over time they tend to burn
out
so, you're not gonna have that trouble with an SMPS,
you know the same trouble that you would have with the transformer. The SMPS
is a more advanced technology,
it's otherwise known as the switch mode power supply,
its founded a lot the flat-panel TVs,
and the main difference between SMPS and a transformer is
its adjustability, so you know you get one of these machines with the
transformer,
you set it up at your house, whatever pH you're getting on your
lower alkaline levels or your higher alkaline levels that's what you're gonna get,
there's no adjusting it. When you have a switch mode power supply,
if you wanted to say alkaline level 1
you can adjust that power up or adjust it down according to your source
water
so, it's just a better technology, like I said again why all the flat TVs
are using it and
all the other high-end electronics and it tends to last a lot longer.
So my pick for the power supply in this category,
again we go to the Hydrent.
Okay so now we're gonna touch on warranties, the Nexus Blue and the Hydrent
2505 both of them have a 10-year 100 percent on parts
and labor warranty, yet Air Water Life has a limited lifetime warranty,
and the difference between the two is the 10-year 100 percent parts and labor
is exactly what it sounds your totally covered for the first 10 years, anything
happens,
no cost out of your pocket. The limited lifetime warranty your cover for the
first five years,
now if something happens year 6, year 7,
what you're gonna be responsible for is the actual service, they'll replace the part
for you, I'm not sure what their service charge is, could be a 150, could be two hundred
dollars an hour,
I'm not sure you have to you know dig deeper into their warranty to find out,
but in this case and in this category
I would choose a 10-year 100 percent on parts and labor warranty
over a limited lifetime warranty. Now there is
100 percent lifetime warranties on parts and labor,
no fine print, they are available but they're not available in this price
categories so,
again, for this price category I would go with the 10-year 100 percent
parts and labor. The only difference between the two machines again just to
touch on this,
the Nexus Blue, they've only been around for a year so,
you know I got jammed up in the past selling a machine,
you know I sold it, they've been around for not a long time and then all the sudden
the person needs,
they need something you know fixed for their warranty or any filters and they
can't get them.
You know that some you have to be leery about a little bit where the
Hydrent you know, they're backed by a company that's been around for a long time,
I don't think you'll have any issues with their warranty. Okay people so now we're gonna
talk about filtration. The Nexus Blue has a single filter,
the Air Water Life has a single filter and the Hydrent 2505 has dual filtration.
Doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure this out,
the more area that the water has to come in contact with the filter media, the
better the filtration.
In this case it's only gonna go travel to one filter, this case it's traveling
through one filter and with the
the Hydrent it's going to be traveling through two filters so,
the price between these filters, on a yearly basis is negligible
it's going to cost you ninety dollars for the Nexus to replace the filters,
eighty dollars for the Air Water Life and ninety nine dollars for the Hydrent,
but you're also getting a set of filters for that price so
do yourself a favor, get yourself something with dual filtration.
Dual filter water ionizers are available in every price category,
the Hydrent in this specific category is a slam-dunk.
Make sure you stay tuned for my final thoughts on all three
water ionizers and I give you my final analysis.
Okay guys, so as with all comparisons that we do here at Ionizer Research
there is going to be a clear-cut winner, today the choice is the Hydrent if
you've been watching the video and you've been looking at the components laid out in front of
you,
you'll understand why the Hydrent was an obvious choice today.
All these water ionizers are going to produce alkaline water,
you know pH levels, you are gonna get the negative ORP levels,
the question you have to ask yourself is which she is going to be the cleanest
water.
In this case you got the dual filtration with the Hydrent, very big
filters compared to
you know the other machines with single filters, obviously the Hydrent is the clear
cut choice.
Who's gonna give you the best negative ORP levels,
and the best pH levels. That's going to be the Hydrent as well, they had
the biggest water cell,
which equals the biggest plates and also they have the most power and the better
power supply with the SMPS.
So today's clear winner to me is the Hydrent, it's my pick,
again they do have the most power, they do have the best power supply,
and they're backed up by a strong company so if you have
any technical issues, you need warranty repair, or you need to get filters,
they're gonna be there for you, the longevity the company is now in question.
Once again, I'm Bob "The Ionizer Guy" from Ionizer Research, if you have any
questions reach out to me, just remember guys I work for you!
