My battery powered air cooler barely works
That’s not going to help with comfort levels during summer heat waves
I thought I had been swindled by infomercials on TV for the last time. That was when I bought one of those copper coated fry pans thinking that it would be the greatest non-stick experience I’d ever had. Unfortunately, the reality was much farther from my expectations. I know that some people got quality copper coated pans, but the one I received in the mail was no better than the cheapest stainless steel fry pan. One of the commercials showed the gal cooking a slide of cheese directly on the heat and then she used a spatula to flip the cheese like a pancake. When I tried to do the same thing, the cheese burned onto the metal immediately and it took a lot of cleaning attempts to get it off the surface. This mishap should have been the last time I ordered a product after seeing it on an infomercial, but sadly it wasn’t. I was swindled recently with the promises of a small little “personal air cooler” that was promised to “revolutionize the air conditioning industry.” I should know now to place little trust in any product that needs to state in its advertising it will revolutionize its industry. That claim has to be one of the most common calling cards of the modern day snake oil salesman. In reality, the product I was sold is nothing more than a cheap swamp cooler made out of an underpowered computer fan. You cannot expect a small evaporative cooler with a battery-powered fan to work, let alone in moisture levels higher than 50% or 60%. The most that this “personal air cooler” can do is add moisture to my humid air. That’s not going to help with comfort levels during summer heat waves. In fact, the added humidity is detrimental to mold forming indoors.
