O2COOL Deluxe Handheld Battery Powered Water Misting Fan (Dark Blue)

Used at Universal Studios and it worked great

We take this out to the motocross racetrack to cool down the racers and it really helps

My son uses this when he cuts the grass in our front and back yards, and he sticks it into a cargo pocket with a few ice cubes in the reservoir. It gets an average of 115F where we live, and so it’s a must have for him when he’s outside in summer. It’s not necessary to put ice into it, but it’s pretty durable and holds about a half liter of water in the tank so it lasts longer with some ice in the tank. However, it doesn’t really run out of the water that fast, even at full blast and with it spraying water the whole time. It’s got enough speed settings for if you’re just sitting around and trying to cool off a bit or a full blast mode that we just call “hometown settings,” due to the heat and humidity where we live. It doesn’t run out of battery fast, so you can put some batteries in it and just kinda forget about it. But don’t let it fool you, the lack of battery replacement doesn’t mean the device has no power: it’s definitely strong enough to beat the Texas heat. It’s small enough to hang from a pocket or go in a purse and the little LEDs are just fun for no reason, like googly eyes, so it’s just a nice touch.

It is great for our grandson's flag football heat.

Soooo ...It's been hot!! Close to 100* these days ... now if you're swimming off your boat in the evening and splashing in the lake ... it's pretty nice!!But what if you're one that is stuck on the boat and not in the cool, refreshing water?After seeing these spray fan bottles (that you can actually put icecubes in with your spring water) ... I bought 3 and planned on getting more!Batteries in ... check!Ice in ... check!Cold spring water in ... check! We're all set!!Well ... first off ... the battery compartments wouldn't stay closed ... and the batteries kept falling out!Ahhhh ... no cooling fan! 😔☹️🥵Well ... Nothing a strip of black electrical tape won't fix! 🤣Right? 🤭 Soooo ... after taping all the batteries in place, and turning on the fan ... next I tried pushing the spray lever ... and was expecting this amazing, cooling experience ... but only this little tiny spray mist came out! The fan even seemed to slow down with just a squirt!I had to hold the bottle just inches from my face to even feel anything!(Well, this can't be right! Let's try another one!) 🤔🤷The next ... and the next ... were all the same! 😳🤔🥵I'm not sure what I was expecting ... but these spray bottles did NOT deliver!We were all so disappointed that evening! No one used them on the boat ... and we ended up dumping the water and ice out after the boat ride was over!Guess I'll try another kind of spray bottle/ fan!The "swamp cooler" idea is a great concept ... but these bottles did not deliver!! 🥵🥵🥵

It's functional enough for the price, but there are just some rather bizarre design choices that I wasn't aware of when I purchased this unit.First off, the battery slot has an extremely weak plastic tab holding the compartment closed. It's so weak that the compartment opens all on it's own if you move the unit around in your hand even a little bit. A bit of tape as others suggested fixed this issue for the most part.The second problem is with how you fill the water reservoir. Some genius decided that the standard detachable reservoir was just too functional I guess and so they decided to made the bottom of the bottle a screw cap instead. In other words you have to turn the unit upside down, unscrew the bottom of the base and then pour water into the reservoir. This is problematic for at least two glaringly obvious reasons.1. You WILL spill some water over the edge while filling because it is awkward to hold. Normally this isn't a problem with a detached reservoir because you just wipe it off, but there is a battery compartment downstream from the reservoir when you turn it upside down, and it has open holed allowing water to easily get in there from any spills you might make. Needless to say, tap water and electronics do not mix well and this is a terrible design decision as a result.2. If you accidentally break the seal on the bottom cap after filling, all the water will come pouring out. There's a reason why almost all liquid containers open from the top and not the bottom, to avoid this very problem.It's cheap and it's technically functional, but you have to work with it a bit to get it there. Do not leave with young kids without supervision, because water + battery generally leads to corrosion and leakages.

works

I teach Pre-K and it’s usually very hot in the afternoons when we go outside. The kids in my class LOVE this as a quick way to cool them down! Pop in two AA batteries, fill it up, and you’re good to go!We had previously bought two for my daughter’s soccer team to pass around on the sidelines and they all LOVE it!!!
