Airmega — The smart air purifier

Air quality detection has been a feature in mid-range and high end air purifiers for a while now. Is there a big difference between this and past products? Still it's nice to have more products in this space. If anything needs to be smart, it's an air purifier. Currently I'm relatively happy with the Holmes WeMo Smart Purifier. My only complaint about the Holmes model is that it doesn't have IFTTT integration but it's $199.99 price point is decent
Air quality can't be managed outside of the home, but inside the home is another story. This is the Nest of air purifiers. It automatically manages air quality, similar to how the new Tesla Model X filters air into the cabin.
I'm really impressed with the design, and I'd like to see how it performs in reality.
Cool product. With recently moving to LA, air quality has definitely become a thought for me. I'd love to see this simple quality control concept applied to drinking water.
How about power utilization? I live in an RV full-time and run off of solar energy whenever practical, so power utilization plays a big role in deciding on new devices to adopt. EDIT: Found what I was looking for here: https://airmega.com/compare-models/
@passingnotes $749 - $849 according to the WIRED article @rrhoover linked. Seems a bit expensive to me. I live in Seoul and we get pretty bad air quality here in the spring when Yellow dust and pollution blows over from China. I'm looking at getting a Xiaomi Mi Air Purifier which goes for only around $150 and look/work great.
