Mini Dehumidifier Test

[@chrome7fan]

I wish more reviews were formatted like this video, simple, informative, and actually gives an answer.

[@patrickcollins7030]

The mare fact I can see water accumulation after 24 hr that’s a pass for me.

[@aaravwallace9161]

sorry to be offtopic but does any of you know a method to log back into an instagram account?? I stupidly forgot my login password. I love any tips you can give me!

[@aaravwallace9161]

@Bodhi Brian i really appreciate your reply. I found the site on google and Im trying it out now. I see it takes quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.

[@aaravwallace9161]

@Bodhi Brian it worked and I actually got access to my account again. Im so happy:D Thank you so much you saved my account !

[@bodhibrian3820]

@Aarav Wallace Glad I could help =)

[@robertomanna9258]

I have the same one. I bought it for a tiny storage room in my previous flat. In winter it was moldy and smelt musty. I did the same experiment as you, mesuring the temperature and humidity relative everyday. But using an outside sensor, I considered the Tout and Hout as well. In my case it wasn't a basement, but a room without windows. So the weather had a consistent influnce of the humydity inside the storage room/flat. Turning on just at night, I found a good result only after weeks. Now, in my new flat and I use it for my wardrobe and it defitely does the job. But you definitely need a bigger unit for your porpuse (50% H). Looking at the date when you posted the video, I'm quite sure you already found a good solution.

These are sold as whole house dehumidifiers all over eBay, I'm getting a VacPlus unit soon to review, as I got a really good price for it and it's replacing a unit that can't deal with the cooler temps where it's used, old unit's 22 years old and still runs fine in warmer areas, I doubt the VacPlus will last more than 10 years, but for the price I paid I'll be happy of I get 5 years of use

[@DarioFoley-qu8ns]

My original intention for this humidifier was to use it for plants that require high moisture levels. After using it in my room, kzbin.infoUgkxtD9aJ2m6GU-X1IChQxjn9l31K1A7Kpwj however, I think that's where it is going to stay in the fall and winter season at least. The increased humidity in my room made the room warmer and more comfortable. I had first ran the humidifier for 4 hours with the timer setting for it. After the first hour, I checked my room and can feel the difference. When the full 4 hours was up, I checked again and noticed that the humidifier was shut off as it is suppose to. The moisture level never seem to get passed 56/57%. I then let it run until all the water is used up, which it wasn't all used up. There are still some left in the base that you are not suppose to add water to. I filled up the water tank all the way again, being careful when removing it from the base. Some left over water may spill out. After putting it back on and setting the unit to auto, I let it operate. It didn't stop running, rather I don't know if it did at any point since I didn't check it regularly, for 24 hours after which the water in the tank ran out. The moisture reading never passed 56/57%, which may be a good thing for me. Being situated right next to my bed, the noise was not very noticeable with the occasional water gurgle from time to time as the unit ran.

I have a 70 pint/day dehumidifier by Danby. It doesn't take too long for the humidity to drop from 60 to 40 percent. I think thermoelectric versions have room for improvement. By passing the chilled and dried air through the hot side's heatsink, the cold side cools even more so it can extract more moisture.

[@eLicky]

A unit that size won't do much, its more like a toy, the humidity differences you saw are probably just from overall weather changes, but it was fun to watch regardless, and the pinball room is pretty impressive. I would invest in a decent dehumidifier if you want to do it properly.

[@13panda13]

Lol, I like watching videos with people thinking they understand vapour control but are just suckers for buying those useless toys.

[@Maheonehooestse-HolyFireMan]

Thank you! My grandmother was a Horder too! And yes she had so many comic books that my grampa couldn't deal with it

[@billyleroygreen]

I cracked up reading your comment.

[@jsaltirov]

It’s great for my fridge. I use it in a curing chamber for making salami. Perfect 👌

[@momentsformoms9467]

Thank you! The instructions I received with mine seemed like I was supposed to put water in the tank. No wonder it wasn’t working.

[@2511jeremy]

Oof mine is a different brand and the instructions make it look like you carry it by the tank

[@filipivan5125]

There are DEhumidifiers and Humidifiers, they have opposite purpose. If u need to put water in then its increasing humidity which is bad for already humid rooms.

[@filipivan5125]

Nice review ! This came up when I searched for Pro Breeze brand. I am in Europe so I guess they are location specific brands using same product. Glad you pointed the difference out. Very glad you showed it running for more than 24 hours with very disappointing results confirming my worries about small size units. Gonna check some more and then I will look into medium/large size units. THANK U !

[@gustavotellez9007]

That's the way to do a review. Thanks pal. I'm about to buy one for a room where I put some tools, is probably a third part of that, Near to zero ventilation so i think this thing will do the work

[@rob4197]

that humidifier is rated to move 1 cup of water per day. So it worked as specified. He just needs to get a higher capacity dehumidifier that's all ( or have 2-3 small ones running ).

[@bennybananza8592]

I came here to see the review but damn nice collection man. I showed this to my dad because hes into collecting as well.

[@MrSmid888]

For problem windows I’d recommend the polythene system in winter. You put double sided sticky tape around the problem window and attach polythene, it acts as a barrier to the cold glass! It definitely works. Cheers

[@deanjohnson1711]

It's doing the job its ment to do its collecting the water what is always a good sign I have one very similar x

[@dustinjenney9736]

From my experience these little dehumidifiers are better suited for a closet or grow tent 😉

[@rayturp6742]

It will take some time because your boxes and other things in the room also hold humidity.

[@timm_3r]

I have no problems never working on a pinball mech again. You got some stuff here that makes my skin crawl.

[@UNAL0504]

I have the same dehumidifier but I keep it in the wardrobe it keeps everything dry ,but a room that size it can't cope

[@zo1dberg]

The fan is just to keep the hot side of the peltier module inside the unit cool and is not for dehumidification. Like you said, it's good for a closet, and that's about it. Get yourself a desiccant wheel dehumidifier for cooler climates or a compressor dehumidifier for warmer climates. Or a small air conditioner with a dehumidifier mode.

[@cmndrkool321]

So I have one of these, and it says in the instructions to run for eight hours and let it rest for another eight hours or else you risk the unit motor burning out from constant use. I have a big Amazon unit in the basement, but I keep this one nearby to help on a timer that activates every 8 hours. The big one does about 99% of the job, but the little one helps when the big one gets full when I’m at work or asleep.

[@believe88]

if i have air conditioning running, would it still be effective?

[@eskay231]

Its changing because.. your humidity isn't gonna be the same every day.. The weather changes bro

[@jimmypage9283]

Thanks for the info,nice basement 😀

[@mr__daly]

The digital humidity meter and the dehumidifier should be at the same height. Also, the temp in the room needs to be at a certain level for the dehumidifier to work better - Over 15oC and over 40% humidity. Capacity - approx 250ml per day at 30oC, 80% relative humidity. It's in the instruction manual.

[@sarchlalaith8836]

Have you kept this running... Has the humidity dropped even more?

[@Kiesa97]

Did you found a better dehumidifier by now? Could you recommend anything?

[@Mickimoss]

That thing seems not working. My room is 65% humidity and when I turn on my Air Conditioner it will lower the humidity to like 59% (I usually use a one hour timer to cool my room) , and it happens quite fast from 65 to 59.

[@manny214fresh5]

Good for my grow tent Thanks

[@johnnymontero107]

Hello, how much does the humidity decrease?

[@Burago2k]

You probably empty that thing every 2 hours or so lol, my room is around the same % and it gets around 500ml every 3-4 hours but the tank is 1800ml

[@LastThankG0DfreeAtLast]

Since I'm going to tatooine to become a moisture farmer this seems like it'll do for a personal water collection for the day. A little solar power and a lifestraw just in case. I think I can survive in the desert with this....

[@maxfactor4209]

I bought a large unit for over 200 pounds from Currys.. it just doesn't work. I have 3 hygrometers at my house in very different places. I did some observations over a period of like 2 weeks.. average humidity did not change even for one percent (my house humidity is around 65 percent average) even though the reservoir was full after just 1 day of use but the humidity did not drop at all. the problem is the humidity finds a way to get it to your house to balance the potential. if your machine is not fast enough, you do not gonna see any changes.

[@dilipn2761]

can you advice what did you do with it afterwards

[@ricardus8179]

Or was it just the ambient humidity outside that was slightly lower and the dehumidifier wasn't enough for that space and airflow? 🤔

[@OC3707]

These mini dehumidifiers are completely worthless and NOT worth paying for. They will not even work for a bathroom much less a larger room. Buy a larger compressor powered one for about 3 times the price, but will suck many pints of water out every 24 hours vs a few ounces for these.

[@aim1519]

Where did u purchase yours and what’s the brand? :)

[@rob4197]

Those big ones also use about 300 watts running compare to 30 watts for the one in the video.

[@PaulLadendorf]

Thanks. Was just going to buy one of those.

[@RIKREADY1]

Excellent Experiment ☑️

[@jaymartinson3236]

This isn't really what its meant for... It's meant for a small closet or similar very small space like a cupboard. That room is way too big for it. You need an actual room dehumidifier.

[@williamn5492]

You need to lower your temperature ! 78 is way to high for comics .I have researched and keep mine between 67-70 in the summer. I deal is 60-70 . The cooler the better

[@tickyul]

I would cut-away the plastic on both the intake and the exhaust.......it would probably give the unit a little better airflow and increased drying.

[@fatimaa7221]

Are you able to remove the filter to clean it?

[@ajjy1110]

yes

[@winterknight5062]

I think this mini thing is best used for toilets, bathroom, closets

[@sootrattlerolloff-road1415]

Dude, everything in that room is a humidity sponge....that thing would need to run for a coup[le weeks to wring that shit out.

[@XvS6-Lemaza]

5:06 baby robot winking at you!

[@crismarines4669]

Thank you! your experiment was very helpful

[@mazman8343]

great video dude what is db noise levels

[@simonmoore8414]

Thanks for sharing. I wonder if you had a few on the go whether it would dent the humidity significantly..

[@HowToWithGEO]

Yes, it’s likely if I had two, it would have reduced the humidity much more.

[@stevecromwell5526]

I LOVE THIS ROOM! Especially the Japanese Star Wars poster, which I have only in The Art of Star Wars book. And there's so much more there to explore - good thing we aren't neighbors or I'd be dropping by every day. : D

[@lesmoore3638]

What about the humidity upstairs, outside?

[@taramiller70]

Do dehumifers and air purfier both kill mold spores and mold also do they both work and are they both worth using

[@ducktales6]

Nice x Wing ✌🏻😊

[@common_sense_supreme]

These tiny ones are meant for small bathrooms and closets.

[@michaelsoto8490]

I have the same one, does not work at all. Wouldn't collect water at all and the humidity hasn't dropped. Yet sounds/feels like it's running correctly. 0/10

[@sirsiralot7635]

It could be that the fan is working but the element that cools and condensates the water is not working.

[@neilcarroll7847]

Thank you so much for making this video.... You are awesome my friend....

[@eelkewestra2186]

0:45 haha 75 procent is considered low actually in the Netherlands lol

[@Turk1881]

hahahaha HAHAHAHA *HAHAHAHAHA*

[@MathewZ788]

You guys have literally 65% where I live 200 feet above ground has the humidity enough to give me asthma (95% every day)

[@MrAllmightyCornholioz]

Tl:DW Version Before: 62-75% After: 62-71% 24 Hours After: 63-68%

[@HOLLASOUNDS]

How about get 3 of them?

[@mastanraochebrolu7150]

How much cost

[@enteoz1694]

Sucks you have to burn so much power to get a 20% decrease with a larger unit

[@enteoz1694]

Also if the room has windows, you get similar results to that machine with exhaust fans pushing air out of the windows

[@gizmocrue73dw]

I have one in my 2×4 grow tent. It totally sucks. Cant keep humidity under 60 percent in a very small space. Waste of $40

[@dawnbethel9194]

Where can i get I De humidifier

[@HowToWithGEO]

Home Depot, Lowes, Amazon. You can get them at many different places.

[@anonymous.switzerland6125]

Hi its this good or no good?

[@AlexL13487]

i have a prem~i~air with same light and button

[@observingillusion9658]

Please don't waste your money on those flimsy glasses they are a joke!

[@5glude647]

I bought the same one and stuck it in a small 2x2 foot area with no results. Not even a single drop. The thing is a piece of garbage. Don’t buy!

[@MiroslavLah-vm4lb]

Te naprave so ena velika prevara 🙄

[@manny214fresh5]

Sorry but it suck Got me big mofo in a yard sell for 2$

[@Deadmatt777]

Shit don’t work

[@spatt833]

This thing is junk.....don't waste your money, PS I own one.

[@zokotodosiev6650]

Wait more....your books have moisture
