Review on Portable Air Conditioner: Rapid Cooling USB Fan for Office, Room & Camping by Albert Lee

Revainrating 2 out of 5

fragile item, poor performance, misleading labeling, box afraid of rain

At first I was going for a 2.5 star rating but decided on a 2 out of 3 as I think their marketing is deceptive . This is called rapid cooling and portable air conditioning, but the guide says it's no cop to compare to a traditional air conditioner. I realize it's unrealistic to expect a 5w water box to perform as well as a 1000w AC unit, but I still think saying it was an air conditioner and then in was misleading the instruction manual that is not shown to say this is wrong to compare it. Other than that, my basic views on this aren't much better. Did anyone have any idea how easy it is to damage the lid of this thing and the same thing happened to the toe box with very little effort, basically it's extremely difficult to get the bottom off without breaking the plastic but it will do when pushed back on or the head with tape. The wire they gave me was also extremely brittle and would bend with the slightest movement, which should not belong to a portable object. They also claim that it doesn't work without a filter, so you basically have to keep buying parts to keep this expensive box going. They also list their USB cable as a consumable, like they know it's fragile, it looks like it's a computer fan installed in a box, the fan moves air but not much, water not even that much a lot of. I was going to give a "useless" review with a "one star" heading, but don't think it's more efficient if you step back a little, ie they show 40-60cm in the effective range from onset of the thermometer in front of it in its best position. , it can drop nearly 0.5 degrees Fahrenheit compared to what's behind the box, but that's within the accuracy of the two thermometers I've had. it's not that loud and its sound is easy to understand, but that's about all it's worth. по сути, это USB-вентилятор мощностью 5 Вт, у него нет собственной батареи, его кнопки очень чувствительны, я не мог изменить угол наклона коробки, не вызывая изменения настроек, если его выключить и снова включить, он возвращается к низкой настройке, даже если вы не были на низком уровне, судя по коробке, в которой он был, он боится дождя или помечен как "боится дождя", так что, возможно, маленькая коробка была слишком напугана, чтобы мне пришлось наливать в нее воду, чтобы она заработала, But that's not the case. Very limited ability to use I already have it. I'd rather leave it than throw it on the wall, but it's not worth more than $10 in my case

Pros
