From a spaceship ....

Well, quite so dramatic, it is not, should be shown as below. But he is really great, and the correspondingly large package in which he arrived. It had even dispensed packaging and instead wrapped the original box. Actually I criticize such plastic waste regularly, but in this case maybe weighs the space saving during transportation more. Inside it is well thought out for pappmäßig to - there arise many departments for items.

These can really easily be composed on the basis of the brief description or with the aid of the sticker around the device. Here you can hardly do anything wrong. If everything is installed, creating a truly impressive level device, this is not for small rooms visually. Personally, I think it would be nicer if the base does not know but would also be kept in silver. But is a matter of taste.

The air discharge can be at a height of 100 to 120cm (measured center) move and rotate in any direction. If you use the auto swing, the air is distributed at an angle of about 90 degrees. The tilt can be adjusted to 30 degrees up / down. When extended, with an overall height of 142cm makes the frame a little rickety impression and depends somewhat by, but that does not affect functionality.

In the strength you can choose between 10 levels. At level 1, the air flow is barely noticeable, at level 10 creates a comparable conventional fans airflow. However, the device is then much too loud television only in significantly increased volume. The basic problem of all an air flow generating device is therefore not solved with this principle. On the contrary, the narrow outlet slits act like little jet engines. Too bad, I would have wished for better. Also a big difference between "fluttering" and evenly air exiting I can personally understand only with a lot of imagination.

The supplied remote commander can control all functions via infrared. The receiver is probably in the foot, so that the view has to be there freely. Per built-timer can be divided into stages, an operating time of 15 minutes up to 9 hours, but do not specify the start / end time.

With a simple consumption measuring device is not in standby power consumption (less than 1 watt) determine (off Schwenkautomtik) at level 1 are there 8 watts (switched auto swing) at level 10 up to 56 watts. The latter is quite a lot. A bearable to my mind relation between volume and air flow provides Level 4, where the consumption is in the swing operation at 18 watts.

The overall impression is mixed. The look is certainly innovative and stylish, the effect was rather average. So the first argument also leads more to an above-average rating. Simply a must for fans! On the practical side, it is families with small children might delighted that the young has no way to get to the rotor blades. 5 points there were in quieter operation and lower power consumption.
