Abstract
A portable sanitizing apparatus, such as a case, includes a first case portion arranged to receive an object to be sanitized, and a second case portion connected to the first case portion and including at least one UV light source configured to emit UV electromagnetic radiation. The second case portion includes an expansion member having a collapsed configuration and an expanded configuration. When the expansion member is in the expanded configuration, a distance between the second case portion and the first case portion is increased compared to when the expansion member is in the collapsed configuration, thereby increasing a distance from the at least one UV light source to the object to be sanitized.
