Dyson Bladeless Fan - Put your hands right through it

Holee molee, did you guys see this?

 

 

I was actually on youtube looking at videos and whilst moving towards another, I saw a few milliseconds of these pix and actually went back on the page to check it out.

 

Wow!

 

lol I hope it's technology don't suck in and spit out my lunch though

I saw one a few weeks ago in one of the electrical superstores gogo. It was on a demo at the entrance of the store and it's very odd indeed

 

Walking near it I could feel and hear the noise of air rushing by but couldn't see any movement. It makes the same noise, if not even louder than a normal blade fan but has no visible rotating parts. I put my hand through the middle of it just to try and figure out how it works

 

First impressions were that it's a nice looking design but a bit noisy for the amount of air flow it had. I came away wondering if a standard blade fan could cool just the same but quieter on a lower speed. It was very expensive and I'd like to compare it next to a conventional fan first.

Thanks for posting Dob, and you're so lucky! lol, I been looking around Montreal actually just to see/hear/feel one in action, and no luck.

 

Yeah, it must be odd seeing something like this happening... air blowing out from...nothing

 

Black hole's here we come!

My first encounter with these type of things was in a restroom. They had the Dyson Air Blade:

Really any better than a regular washroom dryer?

It's quick...?

Wet hands don't stand a chance against a 400mph sheet of air.
