The Void

Where science meets the aesthetic.

$79Kit price — includes PCB, LEDs, and all hardware

Everything in the Dark Dome, plus a UV-C LED array that eliminates contaminants before they reach your substrate. Five ambient light modes turn your countertop into a living art piece. Hardware safety interlock physically disconnects UV-C power when the dome is removed — no firmware trust required.

FEATURES

What Sets It Apart

☢️

UV-C Sterilization

275 nm UV-C LED array runs 15-minute sterilization cycles. Hospital-grade contaminant elimination between grows.

💡

5 Light Modes

Deep Space, Bioluminescence, Aurora, Blacklight, and Day/Night cycle. Set the mood while your fungi fruit.

🔒

Hardware Safety Interlock

Magnetic reed switch physically disconnects UV-C power when the dome is lifted. Safety at the circuit level, not just software.

USB Powered

Runs on any USB-C port at under 1.5 W. No wall adapter needed — power it from your laptop, phone charger, or power bank.
