this price is back from last month
This air circulator needs no introduction. If you have TGGC it’s a bit cheaper ($182) but you need to pick up. Next day delivery showing for me. Not the worst deal I guess.
CamelCamelCamel.
Here we go
Could say the same about a $1500 gaming monitor…
There are benefits to an OLED monitor, but there is no benefit to spending $200 on a $20 fan.
👍
Only of you've compared it to another monitor. If you don't know any better you could get away with a 720p 30hz monitor with a TN panel.
Needs introduction
It's a fan with a DC motor instead of an AC motor, so it's a bit quieter and about 80% more power-efficient under ideal conditions. But it's $200. You could buy a $20 fan that moves the same amount of air and spend an extra $10 a year powering it, meaning it would take 18 years to make up the price difference. Even if you factor in needing to replace the cheap fan every few years and buy, say, three fans for $60 total, you'd still get 14 years of use before breaking even.
Could you recommend an alternate product?
@ihfree: For $50 more you can get one with remote, that oscillates and is also a heater:

The Vornado should be cheaper, it has no oscillation, no remote, no heater.
I came for the introduction,
but left with nothing but 633DC suction
Bought this on the last deal through TGGC. Extremely powerful, decent noise level, not too large, overall very satisfied.
Worth $182? Could go either way, but I’m very happy with my purchase going into summer.
the best part is that with a few aliexpress parts, you can power it from USB-C PD
Bought one from a previous deal. Been using it to bring air into a room once it cools down. Works pretty well, moves a decent amount of air considering the noise level.
Overkill for the purpose? Maybe.
A $200 fan? wtf is this crap…
