Mini cleaner

A two-hour charge with a universal USB cable will last for four hours, and Desktop Vacuum Cleaner by Prowithlin is ideal for cleaning corners. Fits in your hand like a computer mouse and cleaning just requires unscrewing the upper and lower case to empty the contents. About $15, amazon.com

The perfect holder

How often do you try propping up your phone, eBook or tablet only to have it slide down or fall? GoDonut securely holds your device at multiple angles, accommodating phones or standard-sized tablets in cases up to ½ inch thick. Multiple colors, prints, glazes and company logos are available, with an optional swivel base. Starting at $20, godonut.com

Bad posture and leaning toward your screen can be a pain in the neck.

The battery-powered device simply slips over the back of your neck and can be worn while you work or as you sit back and relax. $60, yourneckrelaxofficial.com.

Breathe purer

Want to make any room you occupy more comfortable in about an hour? Molekule Air Mini + with a vegan leather strap is easy to carry wherever you go. The whisper quiet air purifier has a particle sensor that detects the amount of particulate matter in the air and adjusts fan speed to capture and destroy pollutants, bacteria and viruses, including the coronavirus.

Clear vision

A compound approved by NASA for cleaning screens on the International Space Station is available in a hand-held device that safely removes dust, facial oil and fingerprints from eyeglasses, reading glasses and sunglasses. Peeps CarbonKlean is a two-part cleaner. The retractable scratch-resistant brush on one end removes dust and abrasive particles. The other end has carbon microfiber pads with a patented carbon cleaning compound that lifts off dirt instead of rubbing it into the lens like cloths and liquids do. Both ends retract and slide inside a carrying case called the charging station good for 500 cleanings. $20, carbonklean.com.

Light and bright

Attach the brightness you need for your video meeting with a ring light that clips on top of your desktop, laptop or phone. OlumiRing does not need a stand and has a soft silicone internal lining to protect your devices. The LED illumination can be adjusted with a touch of a button to the desired color and temperature. Recharges with USB cord. Free shipping worldwide, $25, oluminate.com

Zap that germy phone

PhoneSoap 3 uses the germicidal wavelength of ultraviolet light to kill 99.9% of bacteria and some viruses that thrive on your phone and other small gear like keys and wallets. Simply place the item inside, close the lid and in 10 minutes, the UV-C light breaks apart nucleic acids and DNA so germs can’t function, reproduce, and just die. $80, phonesoap.com.

Business cards are so yesterday

A referral is the highest form of a professional compliment. But if your client is merely passing your business card to a friend or relative, you won’t know it happened unless that person follows up with you, if ever. Instead of waiting for that contact, CardTapp is a customized phone app that makes sharing your business information easy for your clients by just clicking a share referral button on their phone and entering the prospect’s name, phone number and email. The app links their phone to your website and other online content in real time and captures the prospect’s information so you can engage with them. Pricing starts at $700, cardtapp.com

Clean smile

Want to sanitize one of the most contaminated objects in your home within three minutes? The Bril portable toothbrush case uses ultraviolet light to kill 99.9% of germs on the head of your toothbrush, including viruses, mold, fungi and bacteria. Just put your toothbrush inside and close the lid. No batteries or liquids required. Bril can go for a month on one USB charge. Starts at $30, getbril.com.
