Vanguard Vault Pro
ULTRA-VIOLET SANITISER BOX

Ensure your smartphone, smartwatch and other gadgets are regularly sanitised with the Vanguard Vault Pro (available on Shopee).

A safety sensor automatically stops the sanitisation process when the top lid - which doubles as a wireless charger - is opened.
