I lived in Las Vegas for 40 years, and yes swamp coolers worked there, as long as the humidity is low, I now live in NW Pennsylvania, where the humidity is high, and they do not work here. Filling them with ice would work for a little bit. LOL

So glad to see another video, just what I needed. Keep up the great work!!

We got a couple of the original arctic chills. They work okay for a few hours, but eventually the humidity starts running wild. You also need a few of them in a room if you are actually trying to cool a room.

Hey James, just wanted to let you know that an IR thermometer like that one doesn't necessarily measure only at the spot where the laser is hitting. It measures in a cone at about 8:1. At 8 inches away, it'll measure the average temperature of a spot about 1 inch in diameter. The laser is more of a guide to help you know where it's pointing. Love your channel!

I have the Arctic Air Pure Chill. I can sit across the room and get a good chill. So good I have to adjust it to the lowest level. Sometimes I have to turn it out of my direction and still get a cool chill. The room I use it in has high ceilings. And it provides cool moisture in the air. I love it. ❤️

I really appreciate you mentioning the humidity, I love in an area where is over 60% humidity most of the year so this would be worthless except maybe right next to me sitting in an already cooled house but that isn't practical, thanks for your videos!

James, you just blew my mind mentioning that you tag your cords because I do the same thing ! Thank you for all of your honest reviews, hugs from New York 🥰

I bought an Arctic Air Ultra based on your review last year and it's still going strong. I discovered that even though they switched the cable from USB you're still able to power it. You just need a separate barrel to usb plug now

I also live in Las Vegas, going on 4 years now. I see the Artic Air in the checkout line at Walmart all the time and almost purchased it a few times. After seeing your review on it, I guess I'll just go for it. I've lived on the East Coast all my life so I know all about the humidity. Nevada is so much different. Thanks for the review.

If you're expecting to be able to measure a temperature difference on the surface of a fan that doesn't have a misting function (like those neck fans), you don't know how they work. They work in two ways: one is by increasing the evaporative cooling power of your own sweat on your skin. The other is to replace air near your skin that has already been heated by your body, increasing the temperature difference to enhance conductive heat transfer. A fan makes you feel cooler without cooling the air.

Discontinued doesn't mean stores aren't selling off the stock that they have. So basically once the store sells all of them they won't be able to get anymore. The recessed area on the pure chill is probably to put extra ice so it can melt into the water reservoir.

The thing i like in this channel is how he tests products like this it looks like it reasonable and kinda accurate

Technology Connections says those devices are garbage. I believe him because it makes sense perfect sense.

I have been a loyal viewer of this channel for a long while now, and the quality and detail you put into your tests and reviews never lowers. I get upset when Swamp Coolers are advertised falsely as an AC. They are different items, and swamp coolers don’t really work so well in the damp climate in which I live, aren’t they better performing in the desert?

@james4582

This is correct these products are mostly useless where humidity levels are higher they are indeed evap coolers NOT air conditioners and as for cooling off a room forget that there’s not even enough CFM (cubic feet of air) displacement to be anywhere efficient even in dry arid air. Which evap coolers work on whereas an A/C recirculates the air in a closed space and removes heat to lower temperature. As an HVAC Mechanic/tech I have many years of experience of both A/c systems and evaporative cooling Units as they are quite popular in my area. AndI use evap coolers myself. Understanding the process difference is not that hard. Evap systems work on air displacement and rate of evaporation the more humidity the less evaporation. It is complete falsity to advertise these as air conditioners. These small (Tiny) coolers work only if you are sitting directly in front of them and if you keep adding ice they might produce enough cold air for a bit.but only in a small confined space.

The thing with the portable "fans" are they just move air around you in a more focusing and orienting direction. They not only don't cool the temp down but also raise it up since the electric components produce heat upon running. Well, you may feel cooler when you have some sweat and the fan blow air at it but still, not much of a change.

I luv that you gave us the heads up on the cooling devices. They have a new, but this time it's about heat. It's called 'Heat Boss'.

Thank you for comparing these cause I was thinking of buying an arctic air fan ❤️

I finally figured out how to get it working and it work just like an Mimi air conditioner. I love it.

I’ve started labeling my AC adapters too!

evaporative coolers are great when there's no humidity already in the air, but are just overhyped junk generally.

A few weeks ago I found a box in a cabinet with a neck fan from Sharper Image that I forget all about. As I remember it didn't do much good which must be why I forgot I had it and buried it in a cabinet.

I live in Colorado, depending on the time of year I use all the fan speeds...tho these days our fan's "low" setting is stronger than most of the high settings on our previous fans, sometimes I/we miss being able to have a slight breeze & white noise to sleep by.

I watched an educational channel talking about this type of cooler life the Arctic Air and they said that in the long run they make your room actually warmer.

i saw the cool fan with the uv lights at my walmart in canton .ms.i was wondering whats thats about.good vid&good review.

Most of these things create so much humidity that you feel less comfortable after a while.

Last summer I slept with the ultra next to my bed and it was awesome. I wet then froze the pads, then put ice water along with ice and it kept me cool all through the night

Looks like there at it again, with Tundra Breeze

Cool towel with fans great

Even though your temperature sensor has a laser, it actually works to a cone, the "getting warmer closer to the bottom" is more likely picking up less of the filter and more of the slats.

In places like Vegas where it gets very hot and sometimes the outside air is stagnant, like it gets sometimes. Because sometimes there is literally ZERO wind. Having that fan blowing air against the sweat on your face could make a significant difference if you're stuck with no kind of airflow.

It's now time to bring back out my mission cooling hoodie ...try those because they keep your neck and head from burning too up to 2 hours of cooling just by soaking it for few seconds 🤘

The point of mist coolers is that they reduce the temperature. They are not supposed to make you feel the most or get you wet. So actually you mitt feeling the most and it being a few degrees cooler means it is doing it’s job perfectly.

I really enjoyed my arctic air. I picked it up at a bargain store. I had one on each side of my desk blowing right at me. The swamp cooling effect really did work pretty well. I quit using them after getting our AC replaced in the house. I had the installers go up a size and also make one single duct go directly to my office, of which I sit directly under the vent. It's super chill now! The arctic chill now sits lonely in a box of junk :( Also, I liked the USB connector, as I had them plugged into the back of my monitor's USB ports to power them.

You should definitely put ice water (with ice) in these units. The heat absorbing capability of ice is MUCH, MUCH higher than water. Also, ice will keep the temp of the water at 32 until the last cube is gone. Ice water takes MUCH, MUCH longer to rise in temp than 32 degree water without ice and for the same reason evaporative cooling works, latent heat.

I use the Go Fan Cool Mist but I use aromatic scents for mist. 1 oz water 2 drops of scented oil. Works great...

I bought a cooling towel at Disney when I went to Epcot, and that was far superior to any fan and cooled me down very nicely. So get that if you want something to actually cool you off.
