Well this is a messy thing. It's like the Hazer Phaser, but much more portable and MUCH moister.
One correction (so far). After reassembling the unit I discovered that the microcontroller starts by ramping the motor up slowly to control the initial current peak.
I'm not sure the original purpose of this device (hair spraying?). But it has been covidulated into a disinfecting gun.
You can load it with the contents of cheap supermarket surface sanitiser and then blast most surfaces with its saturating output. Unlike the heated units this doesn't create much of an airborne haze, but instead does the equivalent of pumping the trigger on a spray gun at high speed.
I don't recommend its use near delicate electronic things, including phones and keyboards. And note that after turning it off it still squirts what was left in the armoured black tube (possibly a simple acumulator?) with decreasing force until a small drizzle sprays out the end.
One good thing about the simple diaphragm pump is that it shouldn't suffer harm if run dry when the bottle is empty.
Here's a starter link for eBay:-

My lady has been complaining about not having much strength in her hands. Ordered what I think is the same unit for her to try out for those bigger jobs. What sorts of cleaning agents do you think would cause trouble inside this thing?
That design makes me want to play with an arduino and a mosfet and some of the small motors I have kicking around here… 🙂
It's supposed to be an atomiser…. 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️ Problem is in the nozzle
I have one and it's not pouring water, what's the problem?👍🇧🇷
Hi, thanks for the awesome material. I opened mine up and found that the mosfet is broken, I googled/searched for ht3050a mosfet but I couldn't find it 🙁
Great video! Just wondering how the heating (to create a fog) is done if there's any? Otherwise it should just be a sprayer?
Is this actually good for disinfecting?
Very well explained and also the illustration helped alot..Good work my friend.Tqvm
Is it true UV light? Or just a common colored Led lights?
Some people use alcohol sanitizer liquid with this type of gun and then it exploded😅
Why cant i recharge my gun🥲
its not really atomizing the liquid. Which is what i was looking for. But do you think this gadget will work with insecticide? I need it to spray my house's interior for mosquitoes, ants and roaches. I dont know if the insecticide will mess up the pump and the gaskets.
How do I replace that nozzle
When I heard the pump, I had instant flashbacks to my brother's silk-screening shop. The atomizer gun reminds me of a spotting gun used to remove unwanted ink splats on silk screened garments. Using carbon-tetrachloride squirted through a very tiny nozzle, it put out a strong fine needle-like spray that was forceful enough to break up the ink. The unit wasn't rechargeable, which would have been helpful indeed, but I'm sure it would have been today. Being the early 1990s, rechargeable devices like we have today weren't as common.
So my atomizer spray isn’t sucking up liquid from the hose and instead blows air through it (producing bubbles in the liquid). Any idea how I can fix this? I can still feel the air coming out the nozzle just not the liquid.
We had one just like this. Same problem. fixed it by cleaning the spray tip outlet. Now fogs properly
Can someone help me? I'm looking for this pump that he shows in the video to buy on aliexpress or elsewhere, I'm not finding it at all
