But an air multiplier! What is this nonsense

If you put this fan on a run way.....Oh never mind.

does not blow air in the middle, only a ring.

saw it at a store there like 400$

I really want to know how these things work

[87e30]

Seen them before. Can't remember where though. Seemed to work as I recall.

There still has to be a fan inside the thing. I'm thinking they're using the "airfoil technology" to counteract the "buffetting" of a traditional fan. Either way, not worth whatever they're charging for the thing.

[SpyHunter]

But when I turn off a regular fan, I quickly notice how unsettling it has been.

[CorvallisBMW]

For that price I could buy 2 or 3 floor-standing A/C units. Then I'd get actual cooling instead of just air movement.

[Deltron Dirty30]

its a more relaxing way for hipsters to cool off after riding their fixie around town.

They work, check out the vids! I have no idea HOW they work but looks like they do quite well...

[george graves]

But will I sound like a robot if I talk into it?

I feel like putting my hand through the center of that.


Never mind the potentially disastrous consequences of multiplying my arm 15 to 18x..
