    Man that price is worth the DC motor fan alone.

    Thanks Op. ordered One

    The fan can be control using Alexa or google home?

      have used other xiaomi stuff through alexa, so this should be fine too, i can see it in the app

      • videoman on 01/10/2022 - 16:53

        Has anyone tested it with alexa or google yet?

  • Taro Milk Tea on 21/09/2022 - 10:05

    How long does the fan last for? I usually always buy the Kmart $10 one, but always broken every year and need to keep replacing it.

    • lancesta on 21/09/2022 - 10:19
      +3

      I've bought the $12 Bunnings one and had it last for years if that's any help. I think it's been around 8+ years right now. Another I may have broken by sticking things into the blade when I was younger..

      We've got another one that's really old, old enough to not have the insulation on the power plugs that has only recently died, but starts if you give it a spin first lol (wouldn't recommend of course).

      The cheap ones are definitely a bit more fragile (usually easier to knock over) so not trying to talk you out of spending more. There's definitely benifts to the better ones. But I'm pretty happy with the cheap ones so far.

    • Flying Ace on 21/09/2022 - 14:14

      What are you doing to your fans? We have only ever bought cheap ones and they last years!

      • ozy on 22/09/2022 - 07:58

        Mishandling and asthetics is the main reason everyone throws these cheap fans in the bin every autumn.
        Also 12 month warranty so a return to store is popular for the not so wasteful lazy lot

  • KRiSX on 21/09/2022 - 10:05

    bought… now… what else can I do with the hub? lol

  • impoze on 21/09/2022 - 10:08

    does the fan have HA integration?

    • drasticmeasures1337 on 21/09/2022 - 11:49

      I had the same question, but based on web docs doesn't seem like it. Might look into adding a new integration sometime.

  • impoze on 21/09/2022 - 10:09

    how's the Viomi fan compared to the Xiaomi 2s?

  • jong on 21/09/2022 - 10:10

    Bought; thanks OP.

    The Xiaomi sensors will work with my Home Assistant/Zigbee setup, and I think the fan will too.

    • Trishool on 21/09/2022 - 10:11

      Will they work with the Tuya app? Keen to know this for the door sensor.

      • impoze on 21/09/2022 - 10:12

        not Tuya,
        these are zigbee based sensors

        • Trishool on 21/09/2022 - 10:12

          OK thank you!

          • jong on 21/09/2022 - 10:18

            @Trishool: I believe Tuya will work with (free, open-source) Home Assistant, if you want to tie everything together.

        • salem on 21/09/2022 - 10:25
          +1

          You can get Tuya zigbee hubs and pair zigbee devices to it, so Tuya supports zigbee. I am not sure if it supports these specific zigbee devices though, each ecosystem tends to put their own little proprietary touch on them to spoil compatibility.

  • AnDyStYLe on 21/09/2022 - 10:12

    Hmm already on the Xiaomi Mi Smart app ecosystem… It doesn't appear that the Viomi branded fan is compatible and has it's own app, so a deal breaker for me. Correct me if I'm wrong?

    • Monoclonal26 on 21/09/2022 - 10:22

      There is a Viomi Smart Tower Fan option in the Mi Home App. Hopefully that's the one we need.

      • AssociatedHanaLF @ PCByte on 21/09/2022 - 10:36

        Yes That's exactly the one you need

      • samkenny on 30/09/2022 - 15:01
        +1

        That is not the correct one for me. It comes in as the Viomi AI DC Inverter floor fan 3

    • orin on 21/09/2022 - 10:28
      +2

      They should share the same Xiaomi app. I bought the Viomi heater over winter, and that seamlessly integrated into the Xiaomi app.

      • Droz on 21/09/2022 - 10:45

        Which heater did you get? There were some interesting viomi ones I saw that were wide and sat very low on the ground, but never saw any reviews about them

  • hamza23 on 21/09/2022 - 10:32

    Would this use Singapore region in Xiaomi Home app? Similar to Air purifiers?

          OK, received it. Not too impressed has some wobble/rattle. Much prefer the Kogan fan tbh.

  • Droz on 21/09/2022 - 10:36

    Does anyone know if I can control this from Google Home?

    Don't really want to set up HA as my current stuff - IKEA tradfri and smart lights - works fine just from the Google Home app.

      Never thought I'd be buying a fan today, and yet here we are.

  • drasticmeasures1337 on 21/09/2022 - 12:14

    Thanks, got one. Fan doesn't seem to have home assistant support, but maybe it's possible to add it if I spend enough hours tinkering with it lol.

    • scix on 21/09/2022 - 13:20

      Have a look at the less known MioT integration (if this is a Xiaomi compatible device) as it tends to support more devices than miio.

      • drasticmeasures1337 on 21/09/2022 - 13:43

        Wonder if it will play nice with BTLE. I guess we'll see! Thanks for the link

        • The Hobo on 26/10/2022 - 15:04

          Any luck with getting the fan integrated with Home Assistant?

          • drasticmeasures1337 on 26/10/2022 - 20:31

            @The Hobo: Nope. There's a new model request on repo's GitHub page but I don't think support will be added unless someone makes a pull request. I didn't have time to take a look how it worked.

            As of now it's not possible.

        some of the previous models had built in battery

        • impoze on 21/09/2022 - 20:22

          I thought that too as my xiaomi 2s has the battery.

  • go2home on 21/09/2022 - 16:08
    +2

    It seems powered by 12V DC power, 20W, which means I can connect my GOOLOO car jump starter as battery to power it up. Will be handy if no power plug nearby.

    • mlenser on 21/09/2022 - 20:01

      I hope your joking? Pretty sure this is 240V AC, mains powered, and will have an inverter built in to the circuitry to produce DC (no clue at what voltage) to power the fan motor. Unless you have an DC to AC inverter you won't be able to power this from a 12V DC supply.

      • AdModnar on 21/09/2022 - 22:42

        mlenser my understanding is inverters go the other way.
        I think you mean rectifier.
        DC motor should be fine, assuming the voltage is OK and the battery can supply the power needed.
        For the rest of the device, the "smarts", that might need voltage change (my guess is 5V or 3.3V) but what electronic components actually run at 240V AC? None that I know of. (and if the motor is 12V then this conversion is likely already in there)

          Not sure why you (edit: were) being downvoted.

          I am uneducated on the topic but just plugged my vape charger into the fan (12V @ 3A DC barrel) and it ran no problems.

  • Illuxz on 21/09/2022 - 17:21

    How does this compares to the Kogan one? https://www.kogan.com/au/buy/kogan-premium-dc-motor-pedestal…

    • Xizor on 24/09/2022 - 11:43

      I bought one of these just assembled today, it is considerably smaller and not as good in my opinion. It also has a subtle but annoying wobble and rattle. Might return it.

        I've notice there are 2 tracking numbers so I guess it's yet to be sent but will arrive.

        I just checked my AusPost app and I have a item "Ready for Processing" with a matching tracking number. The sender shows "From Walker Zhang".

        i only receive the shipping notice today, finger crossed

    • AlbyDuck on 16/10/2022 - 13:06

      I got the starter pack about 2 weeks ago and the fan arrived just now. I lodged a query with AP a week ago. No help whatsoever. A cso at the post office worked out where it was. For some reason there's one tracking number for two parcels. It's been a pita. The fan's smaller than I expected (not sure what I expected, really). Nice and quiet.
