Can this smart ceiling fan kill the coronavirus? Independent tests say 'yes'
Earlier this year -- and shortly after the onset of the coronavirus pandemic -- Kentucky-based manufacturer Big Ass Fans introduced the Haiku UV-C, a luxurious smart ceiling fan with disinfecting ultraviolet lights built into the base and aimed up at the ceiling.
