Smart fan? You heard right! Xiaomi Mi Smart Fan is built into a smart home and easily replaces expensive air conditioning systems.
If you believe the advertising brochure, the new product is neither more nor less, but imitates the wind. This occurs due to a complex scheme for changing the fan speed. The variable flow does not allow you to get used to it, and gives you a constant feeling of freshness and coolness.
Instead of a traditional AC motor, the Xiaomi fan has a brushless DC motor. It is more expensive, but much more reliable - and makes virtually no noise. And, more importantly, it allows you to smoothly adjust the rotation speed and flow force. Analogue simplicity.
The blades themselves are a unique, patented development of the company. Engineers have created an entire air system - the flow is created by the blades and continues with the help of a diffuser.
To control the new product, the traditional MiHome application is used, intended for creating a smart home. You can create operating profiles, set on and off times, and even create scenarios for responding to the activation of certain devices.
Among other things, the gadget is equipped with a built-in battery - you can take it with you without thinking about the presence of at least some kind of power supply. The developers promise up to 16 hours of work without an outlet!
