These portable sanitizers fit easily in your suitcase or carry-on and are convenient for quickly disinfecting mobile phones, countertops, bathrooms, and more. All you have to do is turn on the sanitizer for five seconds and for it to quickly work to mitigate and eliminate harmful germs, bacteria, and viruses.
