608 and I can't smell the ozone.
for those interested, the reason you need an air dryer is because nitric acid can form when moisture is present... And if the intake is clogged with moisture, air flow slows down and the corona has too much time to split apart the air into ozone, and the ozone can get split apart... And in that case, more nitric acid can form.
And the reason that the activated carbon filter works, is because as the ozone passes through the carbon, it loses an oxygen atom and combines with another oxygen atom to form 02... And what doesn't combine to form oxygen, combines with the carbon to form carbon dioxide.
