Dyson Launches First Handheld Fan Just in Time for Summer Heat
Dyson has introduced its first handheld fan, the HushJet Mini Cool, which aims to provide effective cooling for users on the go. This innovative product was announced on Wednesday and is designed to address the universal need for comfort during hot weather.
Features of the HushJet Mini Cool
The HushJet Mini Cool is a versatile device that offers three modes of use: handheld, neck-worn, or surface-mounted. This adaptability caters to various user preferences for staying cool in different environments.
Specifications and Design
- Weight: 7.5 ounces
- Airflow: Up to 55 mph with five speed settings and a boost mode
- Battery: 5,000 mAh, charging time of three hours, and a six-hour runtime
- Size: 1.5-inch diameter, comparable to a watch face
- Sound Level: Operates at 52 dBA to 68 dBA, with boost mode reaching 72.5 dBA
Dyson has employed its new HushJet air projection system in this fan, allowing for powerful airflow while being mindful of sound levels, which is essential for shared spaces.
Cooling Technology and Safety
Instead of traditional misting methods, the HushJet Mini Cool uses evaporative cooling, enhancing airflow near the skin to promote moisture evaporation. This bladeless design prioritizes safety, making it user-friendly for all age groups.
