    Best I can get is $26.40, not $26.04 - is that what you meant?

    • Clear on 14/10/2019 - 14:35

      Using the Mastercard exchange rate I get $26.04 AU. Currency conversion free cards such as 28 Degrees would get you $26.04 approx.

      Using a VPN to set my location as US I was quoted in US$, which I then paid for using my Cole's Mastercard (making sure to override PayPal's conversion rate). The charge came up as AU$25.94 for me. Thanks OP!

      I’ve got one of these and it definitely works. On auto it turns right up when I’m cooking and the air quality is noticeably better indoors when I’ve got it on. I now run it 24/7. It reports ppm levels in real time to your phone.

                @[Deactivated]: You buy a air sensor monitor from America - https://www.amazon.com/Dylos-DC1100-Pro-Quality-Monitor/dp/B…

                I bought this air filter, and I didn't trust china, so I bought that dylos from the US.

                Apparently it really works because the state of california use them a lot because they have to have monitors across the state and in primary schools and stuff because of their wildfires.

                From my experience, the air purifier works, period. But it's air sensor is not accurate. Its generally correct, but its always more optimistic than the dylos.

              That's not a guarantee of anything. Manufacturers screw up all the time. Do you trust Apple to design mag lev keyboards that don't break in their laptops? Or phone antennas that work even when you hold them the wrong way?

    • Clear on 14/10/2019 - 15:21

      Do you have one? Based on pics of the unit I'm going to assume it has the same filter.

      • flyingtrapeze on 14/10/2019 - 17:10

        Bought a 3 a few weeks back. The filter does look very similar

  • fookos on 14/10/2019 - 15:25

    Can anyone confirm that their air filter recognises this generic version - ie. does the app report on remaining days properly - and note when expired?

    • dcash on 14/10/2019 - 15:35
      +1

      There is no electronics in the filters, so it makes no difference whatsoever. The remaining days is just a guess based on how long the machine has been running and at what fan speed level. There are no smarts in the filter itself.

      • fookos on 14/10/2019 - 15:40

        So how does it know when you take it out and clean it, and put it back in, that it's the same filter you had in previously? There must be some sort of RFID chip or something in there.

        • Jeffbro2222 on 14/10/2019 - 15:42

          Yeah I’m pretty sure from the manual it says the filters have an NFC chip

        • lostn on 14/10/2019 - 16:45

          I did that before. I vacuumed the filter all around, and the percentage of life left increased by a few %. Somewhere around 6-7%.

          It definitely has some intelligence. But whether it's based on time elapsed or a reading of the filter's performance I couldn't say. Based on what I described above, I think it must be able to measure how much air is going through the filter (when clogged, less air goes through, after vacuuming it, more air went through and maybe it updated the filter life reading).

        • dcash on 14/10/2019 - 22:35

          Ok, it seems the 2S model might use an NFC tag to detect whether you're using an original filter — the 1 and 2 model definitely do not.

      • InternetExplorer on 14/10/2019 - 15:48

        There is a nfc tag built in to the filter

        • lostn on 14/10/2019 - 19:15

    I have a bad hayfever (Sydney) and I have used 2 x Xiaomi 2S during this winter/spring but I don't seem to have been improved compared to last year without those.

    • huu on 14/10/2019 - 16:32

      Use the green one, I found it alot better at removing smells.

    • lostn on 14/10/2019 - 16:49

      I think the purple one is meant to be best for hay fever and allergies.

      But you gotta understand that pollen is not just in the air, it's in your eyes and on your clothes too. The purifier is not going to get rid of what's on you. Clean out your eyes and change your clothes, and after that you should notice an improvement.

      • fookos on 14/10/2019 - 17:06

        It also won't get rid of what you breath in when you're outside! ;) But, if you can control your own environment, it's better than nothing :)

        • Unacceptable on 14/10/2019 - 19:18

          Yes. But I bought these after reading fellow ozbargainers comments. I regret now. :(

          • lostn on 15/10/2019 - 12:36

            @Unacceptable: Get some allergy eye drops and when you return home and don't intend to go out again, shower and change your clothes.

            There is no panacea for your allergies. You have to work around them.

  • ahara on 14/10/2019 - 16:03

    Based on the pictures on the website, it looks as if the B option does not have a carbon sheet on the inside of the filter.

    • Clear on 14/10/2019 - 16:05

      That's correct. Like the original Economic filter there is no carbon filter. Option A is the equivalent to the carbon filter.

  • ezza on 14/10/2019 - 20:44

    I dunno… maybe I've been dodgy and been cleaning my air filter and re-using time after time like this guy on youtube:
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SqMtX8R1xSc

    I just hit the rest button the back and remaining days count back just like a real replacement.

    It seems to work.. and re-catches all dirt etc time afternoon.. in terms of if its doing a good job since I keep cleaning - this I can't comment on!

    • dcash on 15/10/2019 - 19:23

      I'm sure everybody cleans (vacuums) their filter — they are designed to be cleaned this way. The air purifier itself has no idea how dirty your filter actually is, so it makes a pessimistic guess in the hopes that you'll buy filters more often than necessary. It seems from some of the comments in the forum that people actually believe the filter is smart enough to know when it's dirty - ROFL.

      In Australia I'd say you can get at least a year out of a filter running the machine 24/7 on a high power level, provided you vacuum it every other month. If you're running it on automatic you can probably go 12 months without bothering to clean it, and 2 or 3 years without replacing it. And yes, I have been using two Xiaomi 2's for several years now, plus other air purifiers.

    • RocketSwitch on 15/10/2019 - 10:05

      That's a pretty ignorant comment. Have you used any air filter before and seen what it captures? Or… ???

      • dcash on 15/10/2019 - 19:28
        +1

        Yes. They capture a reasonable amount of airborne dust that happens to find its way close to the machine. If however, you watch the amount of dust that settles even two or three meters away from the machine, you begin to appreciate how little they are really helping in the overall scheme of things. When you compare what the air purifier filter captures over a period of 2 or 3 months to what a vacuum cleaner will pick up off the floor in 5 minutes, it kind of puts things into perspective (hint, the vacuum cleaner picks up magnitudes more).

        • RocketSwitch on 17/10/2019 - 09:32

          Yeah, I see what you mean, but when I have mine off, I haven't cleaned one for a week, the room air starts to become stale and smells. So, although dust is one part of it, it does a whole lot more (that's the Conair one I have in the room).

          • dcash on 17/10/2019 - 13:27

            @RocketSwitch: Agreed, a charcoal filter is useful at capturing smells — though hard to say how long these last before the pores are clogged and must be replaced. Whether indoor air purifiers are useful for allergy suffers in terms of capturing pollen and dust mite poop, I think the jury is still out. What I will say is that they are far less useful than what most of the marketing material would have you believe — though of course this isn't limited to air purifiers!

  • H E B on 28/10/2019 - 18:44

    Does anyone know how can you tell the difference between a genuine and non? I've never seen any filters with the xiaomi marking on it. The 'original' that it came with a while back I couldn't find any markings on it either. Or maybe I'm not looking properly!

    Unfortunately all the replacement I have used all look the same an the original was a different colour one so I can't be sure.

    • fookos on 30/10/2019 - 14:10

      The original should have a little Xiaomi leaflet (very small - mini - square fold out) in there and their brand appears somewhere else too from memory. I don't think the actual filter itself - once unwrapped - displays their mark. Would need to check at home.
