OVERVIEW

Handy Cooler is the perfect travel/everyday must-have. It weighs a little over 4 ounces I would say. The size of the handy cooler is astonishing for an air cooler. It is about the size of a water bottle and the handle fits very well. I love how you can adjust the angle of the blowout direction. The air that comes out is cooler than fans, and it doesn't come off too strong. However, don't expect it to be as cold as and as powerful as a full-size AC.



GET IT WORKING

It works by evaporation. For cool air, you need to wet the sponge with the mini-bottle provided or wet it with water over the sink. I think it might even be a good idea to put it in the fridge for a while so that the air that comes out is even cooler.



BATTERIES

It can be powered by plugging it into a computer with the USB cord provided, or by 4 AA batteries which lasts about 5 hours. You can even purchase a 6V wall adapter for it.



CONCLUSION

- cooler than the most fans

- great design

- humidified air

- easy to use

- portable

5works in a truck!
By Abel
I have been working for UPS as a delivery truck driver for years now. I have to say the Handy Cooler is simply the most useful gadget ever. If you have not known already, UPS trucks do NOT have air conditioning because of our frequent stops to houses. I used to keep little fans in the truck while I was driving but they barely helps. The hot air inside the truck just keeps getting recycled. My son got me the Handy Cooler last month and it has made my job so much easier under the hot weather. I usually keep a big water bottle in the car and jus wet the cooling filter whenever it gets dried up. I saw that there is a 6V AC output on the Handy Cooler, so I tried to plug a 6v car adapter into it and it worked! The only problem is that it was hard to place the Handy Cooler so that it would blow directly on my face. I had to use a lot of blue tag to stick it in place on the dashboard. However, I do strongly recommend this product.

5personal cooling
By Dbenz
The handy cooler is very good if you need a personal cooling product. I put the cooling pad in the fridge and they add extra cooling. The great thing is that they are designed nicely so they can be carried anywhere. I used to own the sharper image neck cooler and that is nothing close compared to the handy cooler. I highly recommend this one.
