FAQ: BioVYZR: Venture Out & Breathe Easy
For the most up-to-date information about the status of our project, check our project updates on Indiegogo!

How does the BioVYZR compare with basic personal protective equipment (PPE)?

Masks and face shields are critical to reducing the transmission of diseases. However, when it comes to airborne pathogens, they provide limited protection. In the case of most face masks, outside air can easily leak in around the mask due to the absence of a tight seal around the nose/mouth. Where both masks and face shields are believed to provide good protection from large droplets, both do not shield from micro-particle aerosols suspended in the air that can reach the nose, mouth, and eyes.

What kind of filters does the BioVYZR use? Where do I buy refills?

We have two filter refill options: N95 and N99. For our first production run, we will be using N95 filter material for all the refills. There are two shapes that the filter refills come in: 2 triangles (for the air vents) and 1 circle (for the fan). Your BioVYZR will come with 6 triangle filters and 3 circle filters. Filters should be replaced after 60 hours of continuous use. Refills will be sold on our website: vyzrtech.com. Packaging will include filter disposal instructions for your safety.

Will the BioVYZR help protect me from aerosol-transmitted pathogens?

There are many ways to protect yourself from aerosol transmitted viruses and bacteria. A few include regular and rigorous hand washing, social distancing, self-isolation (whether you have symptoms or not), and avoiding crowded public spaces. Having the right personal protective equipment is also a critical component of a holistic approach to personal protection. When used correctly, the BioVYZR provides a robust seal while filtering out airborne micro-particles from the air you breathe.

What if I have condition that makes breathing difficult?

Wearing a BioVYZR may make breathing more difficult for those with respiratory conditions. People with known or suspected breathing problems, emphysema, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, or cardio/pulmonary problems should consult with their physician before using a BioVYZR.

BackerKit FAQ

What is BackerKit?

BackerKit is a service that crowdfunded project creators use to keep track of hundreds to tens of thousands of backers—from shipping details, pledge levels, preferences and quantities, whether they have paid or had their card declined, special notes, and everything in between!

The BackerKit software and support team is independent from the campaign’s project team—BackerKit does not handle the actual reward shipping. For more information about the preparation or delivery status of your rewards, please check the project's updates page.

How does BackerKit work?

After the campaign ends, the project creator will send you an email with a unique link to your survey. You can check out a walkthrough of the process here.

I never received my invitation. How do I complete the survey?

The most common reasons for not receiving a survey email is that you may be checking an email inbox different from the email address you used to sign up with Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account, or it may be caught in your spam filter.

Confirm that the email address you are searching matches the email address tied to your Kickstarter, Indiegogo, or Tilt Pro account. If that doesn’t work, then try checking your spam, junk or promotions folders. You can also search for "backerkit” in your inbox.

To resend the survey to yourself, visit the project page and input the email address associated with your Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account.

How do I update my shipping address?

BackerKit allows you to update your shipping address until the shipping addresses are locked by the project creator. To update your address, go back to your BackerKit survey by inputting your email here.

When will my order be shipped, charged or locked?

That is handled directly by the project creator. BackerKit functions independently of the project itself, so we do not have control of their physical shipping timeline. If you want to check on the project’s status, we recommend reading over the project's updates page.

I completed the survey, but haven't received my rewards yet. When will they arrive?

As BackerKit does not actually handle any rewards or shipping, the best way to stay updated on the shipping timeline would be to check out the project's updates page.
