Then there's UV air purifier. This one could be closer to truth because actual tests are made (as they say):

Does it say LED? UVC LEDs are expensive and weak, it might be a tiny mecury tube.

They state it's an LED in the comments section, I wouldn't have expected anything else for the small size of the battery they must have in in.

Why not? I've had a device at home for many years that is rated to extract I believe 25 litres of water a day from air, though I think that's at 25 C and 80% humidity which I don't have. I think in practice its extracting about 10 litres a day, using 8 kW/h of electricity to do so. I then throw the water away as the purpose is to make the room more comfortable both by reducing the humidity and by pumping out about 800 W of heat from 330 W of electricity.
