First, which is the strongest summer cooling? From hand-held headwear to halter neck hanging waist, the development route of portable fan domestic products is detailed
This year's summer came exceptionally early, and many equipment to cool down the heat has begun to be gradually distributed, and one of the more popular categories in recent years is portable fans. Although its seasonal attributes are very strong, it is also a place for the major domestic 3C accessories manufacturers, after all, after all, after being able to make this tens to hundreds of yuan of accessories a hit, the income is still considerable.
As far as I have observed, there are currently a wide variety of portable fans, handheld, halterneck, and even hanging on the chest and waist, in short, the eight immortals cross the sea, and the best of them is the brand TORRAS.
Tulas, a new lifestyle brand born in 2012, has been committed to industry-leading product innovation and technology research and development and application, with the mission of "willing to create products in line with future trends" and the concept of "Never Stop", insisting on creating products beyond imagination that conform to future trends and represent new lifestyles for users.
As a leading brand of consumer digital products for Internet life, Tulas has accumulated strength in the field of portable fan accessories. As early as 2020, it took the lead in launching the first bladeless halterneck fan on the market, and in 21 years, it innovatively launched a bladeless wearable air conditioner with a refrigeration module, successfully leading the trend of the portable fan market.
Tulas has successively launched a variety of portable wearable fan products on the track of bladeless halterneck fans, such as halterneck fan L3, vitality wind ring, hanging waist wind ring, Koofei 1st generation, Koofei 2nd generation, and Koofei 3rd generation. This article will focus on the two products of "Koofei 3rd Generation Wearable Air Conditioner" and "Waist Hanging Wind Ring", which correspond to the heat dissipation needs of the shoulders, neck and waist respectively.
Although the shape of portable fans is similar, the technical route and cooling effect they use are different. Therefore, by personally experiencing the Tulas Cool Fly 3 wearing air conditioner and hanging waist wind ring, you can fully reflect Tulas' accumulation and deep understanding of portable fan technology, and I will take you to a plate of these two products.
Second, Tulas Cool Fly 3 wears air conditioning and hanging waist wind ring, so the cooling is really hot!
Since the previous Tulas Cool Fly 3 wearable air conditioner and hanging waist wind ring are all praised, let's talk about it seriously, first look at the product design.
❶ Turas Cool Fly 3 wears air conditioning
Judging from the appearance of the Tulas Cool Fly 3 wearing air conditioner, it is a semi-arc-shaped halterneck shape, coupled with dense openings, quite like the hot halterneck sound some time ago, in addition, I also feel that it is a little like the human ancestor spaceship in "Prometheus", with more sense of future technology.
The name and positioning of the Tulas Cool Fly 3 wearable air conditioner is air conditioning rather than fan, which means that its cooling components and temperature control technology are far different from traditional halterneck fans. According to official information, the Tulas Cool 3 wearable air conditioner adopts an active cooling technology route.
Through the ultimate somatosensory cooling experience brought by 3 semiconductors + 4 microfans + 7 air outlets, with the help of infrared thermal imagers, you can see that the three semiconductors are located on the inside tail and left and right sides of the wearable air conditioner, which wrap your neck well.
Among them, the best cooling effect is the "back triangle area - cool angle", followed by the left and right sides, while the lowest point of the temperature falls in the central area of each department, according to the official statement of the effective cooling area of the Scoo Fei 3 wearable air conditioner is as high as 14388mm², compared with the Cool Fly 2 generation 79%, you can understand it as a cold neck.
Compared with the traditional halterneck fan that can only blow hot air, the Tulas Cool 3 wearable air conditioner can achieve active cooling, and you can see that the temperature of the triangle at the back of the neck has dropped to 19.3 °C, so that it will feel cool and fluttering when attached to the neck, as if there are ice packs.
On the left and right wings of the top of the wearable air conditioner, you can see that each has 2 air outlets and 1 micro fan, and the rear part is 2 fans + 2 air outlets. At the same time, there is also 1 air outlet under the tail of the wearable air conditioner, which is mainly responsible for the cooling needs of the back. This wraps your neck fully and cools your face, neck and back.
The Tulas Scoo 3 wearable air conditioner has a three-stage design, so its wings can be bent to meet different sizes of neck space. The back of the neck also adopts a large triangle design that is different from the previous halter fans, which can effectively increase the contact area of the back of the neck. Also let the lower air duct go deeper into your back and even tuck it into your clothes.
From the wearing experience of the Tulas Cool Fly 3 wearing air conditioner is still quite comfortable, on the one hand, it is very wrapped, and the neck has a large area of fit, the contact surface is made of smooth touch mirror material, and the contact with the skin is also quite comfortable, without foreign body sensation and allergy problems. On the other hand, it is more textured and stable than traditional halterneck fans.
In addition to cooling, I found that the Tulas Cool 3 wearable air conditioner can also generate heat, officially called "heat therapy function", unlike the cooling experience, its left and right wings and tail triangle area heat up quickly. If it is winter or rainy days to wear on the neck, the experience is quite in place, warm and comfortable, which is not much more reliable than the neck bib.
Finally, the Tulaas Flying 3 refrigeration air conditioner is also equipped with a portable protective sleeve to avoid problems such as scratches and falls in the shell when the device is stored. At the same time, the protective case also changed the whole bag design of the previous generation, but fits closely according to the shape, so that it does not take up space in the bag.
❷ Thulas hanging waist wind ring
After talking about the hanging around the neck, let's look at the one wrapped around the waist - Turas hanging the waist wind ring, compared to the Kufei 3 wearing air conditioning, its shape is more chic, similar to a belt, reminding me of the jade belt worn by officials in the Ming and Qing dynasties to symbolize official status.
The Tulas Hanging Wind Ring is distinguished by two long, curved modules connected by straps of adjustable length. The strap on the right is designed with a quick-release snap that you can easily secure or remove.
When using it for the first time, it is tied to the waist first, and then the length of the strap is adjusted according to the size of the waist, and the adjustable range is still relatively large, which can fit people of all sizes, whether it is a small man's waist or a bucket type.
Since the loin loop is worn closely, a phase change cold feeling material imported from Japan is used in contact with the skin, which can effectively absorb heat and prevent sweating.
It is solid at room temperature, absorbs heat when you use it, changes from solid to liquid, and when you remove it, it will release heat from liquid to solid.
In terms of air duct design, the waist hanging wind ring has 5 built-in microfans, and at the same time adds a long air outlet, one at the front and one in the front and one around the chest and back, blowing upward air to cool the whole body.
Because the hanging waist wind ring has a certain thickness, there will still be a certain long bulge on the abdomen and waist when dressing in summer, and it may take a short adaptation period when using it for the first time, but it will not feel uncomfortable after getting used to it.
Although the aesthetics are not as good as the directly exposed waist hanging fan, but from a practical point of view, the exposed is an embroidered pillow a package of grass - blowing a lonely, and the inner Turas hanging waist wind ring is a solid cooling, the wind is strong, reaching 5m/s, summer to have it, simply not too cool.
The front of the waist wind ring is designed with a power switch and front and rear gear adjustment, click the power button to adjust the global air volume, click the front and rear gears to adjust the front and rear air volume respectively.
At the bottom of the hanging waistband, you can also see its product information, built-in 5000mAh large-capacity battery and support 15-18W USB-C fast charging scheme, 1 and a half hours can be fully used for a day, up to 24.5 hours of battery life, the battery life experience is still remarkable.
From the appearance design of the two products of Tulas Cool Fly 3 wearing air conditioners and hanging waist wind rings, it is still very new and selling points, expressed by the recent hot buzzwords, it is really "Thai pants spicy", which can bring you a completely different cooling experience and make you the most beautiful boy in the crowd.
3. How is the experience of using Tulas wearing air conditioners and hanging waist wind rings? Can it be a summer cooling artifact?
In the third part, let's talk about the scene experience of Tulas wearing air conditioners and hanging waist wind rings. Summer outdoors is their home turf, and the weather in Wuhan in May is quite pleasant, but there are always days when the sun is hot. For example, last Saturday when we rode East Lake, I put on the Tulas Cool Fly 3 and went out with an air conditioner and a wind ring on my waist.
❶ Turas Cool Fly 3 wearable air conditioner - use experience
When you wear the Tulas Cool 3 air conditioner, you can turn on and adjust the gear through the button at the bottom of the right wing according to the weather temperature and body feeling, which includes a total of air outlet, cooling, heating mode and soft, natural, strong three gears adjustable, the wind speed can reach 2.5m/s. With a total of 54 room temperature, cooling or heating options, there's one to suit you.
At the same time as you operate, the gear indicator on the right wing will light up, green represents normal temperature mode, blue represents refrigeration mode, red is hyperthermia mode, you can switch between the two temperature states through the button on the left, and when you are familiar with the operation, you can completely operate blindly, and you don't need to take it off to regulate the temperature outdoors, which is very convenient.
At the same time, Tulas' Koofei 3 wearable air conditioner also supports wireless control, and you can set functions such as working status, timing and OTA firmware upgrade through Bluetooth binding in the APP of the same name as "Tulas".
It should be noted that the wearable air conditioner defaults to cooling mode and air outlet mode, and the heating mode can only be controlled by the physical button on the device side after switching through the APP, and the fan does not work in the heating state. Fortunately, the wearable air conditioner has a memory function, which can be switched once a quarter, without opening the APP every time to operate.
It is worth mentioning that the gear size of the wearable air conditioner not only affects the wind speed, but also affects the efficiency of cooling and heating, of which the greater impact is mainly the triangle area, and the lowest refrigeration gear can be seen through the infrared thermometer has been as low as about 15 °C.
If it is in hyperthermia mode, the temperature of the triangle area can be as high as 47°C, it is recommended that you do not use the heating mode continuously for more than 6 hours, just like electric hot water bottles and warm babies, long-term use can easily lead to low-temperature burns. [This sentence can not be mentioned, change a concluding remark]
❷ Turas hanging waist wind ring - use experience
Similar to the Tulas wearable air conditioner, the interactive logic of the Tulas hanging waist wind ring is also a physical button + APP control scheme, and its gear adjustment is mainly operated through the front 3 buttons to operate the wind speed of the front and rear partitions, a total of 3 gears and 2 zones, a total of 6 combinations.
The same hanging waist wind ring also supports Tulas's APP control, you can set it in partitions, you can also schedule, query the power, OTA upgrade firmware and other operations, of course, I think the hanging waist wind ring only has physical buttons is enough.
❸ Two products outdoor wear experience
Some time ago, taking advantage of the rare good weather, my junior brother and I rode a round of 30km around the small circle of Wuhan East Lake, which is not fast, with an average speed of 15.3km/h. Junior brother wearing long sleeves is not good heat dissipation, although I am short sleeves but also carrying a big bag, the two of us rode a few kilometers on the back of sweat, with the upper Tulas wearing air conditioning and hanging waist wind ring, giving people the intuitive feeling that wearing it can play a good cooling effect in outdoor walking, camping, cycling and other scenes.
On the one hand, because the volume and weight control of the two is moderate, the long-term wearing experience is relatively comfortable, on the other hand, because the cooling effect is outstanding, and the battery life is long-lasting, which is a pain point that portable heat dissipation devices in the past cannot solve.
When you are outdoors in the southern summer, even in the shaded areas, you are prone to the magic attack of hot and humid weather, and the appearance of wearing air conditioners and hanging waist wind rings can undoubtedly cool you down quickly; When night falls and the weather turns cold, you can also change the air conditioner to heat therapy mode to protect your shoulders and neck and avoid the cold invading.
For users like me who like to ride, you can also consider wearing the Tulas Cool 3 with the air conditioner and the wind ring on the waist.
From the actual performance, the wearing stability of the two portable cooling products is not bad, the wearing air conditioner is self-locking by clamping force, and the hanging waist wind ring is fixed with the help of straps, almost no shaking or falling problems, and it is no problem to use it in light sports scenarios such as jogging.
At the same time, the cooling effect of the two devices is also remarkable, when riding before, although the front is cool to the wind, the back is often easy to sweat, and if you carry another backpack, the body feeling is quite sour. Especially when you stop and rest, the sweat stain is quite obvious, and there is no such trouble after wearing it to travel.
In order to better show the working effect of the two, I did an experiment, in the closed bedroom to turn on the air conditioner heating 30 °C, after 1 hour of heating, the indoor temperature reached 28 °C, the humidity was as high as 62%, which is a slightly hotter environment at the turn of spring and summer, and I have a lot of digital equipment in the room, strong thermal radiation, and higher temperatures in some areas.
You can see that the temperature of my body surface in the room is about 33-36°C, and the temperature distribution is relatively even, mainly concentrated above the chest and back.
Then after I wore the "Tulas Cool 3 Wearable Air Conditioner" for 10 minutes, I could see that the neck in the infrared pseudocolor map that touched the refrigeration area of the worn air conditioner was dark blue, representing the lowest temperature. At the same time, the temperature of the cheeks and the back of the neck near the air outlet also dropped significantly, showing a low temperature zone with a different color from the surrounding area.
After changing to "Turas hanging waist wind ring" after working for 10 minutes, it can be seen through the infrared pseudo-color map that its working range can just cover the central area of the back, and the place where the front and rear waist and the wind ring contact is dark blue, indicating that the temperature here is the lowest, and the navel to the chest, the waist to the middle of the back also changes to a slightly lower temperature light blue and green, indicating that the air outlet of the wind ring really has the effect of heat dissipation.
It should be noted that I use it for the sake of shooting results, if you are dressing, the clothes can also form a set of internal circulation, and the cooling effect of the two will be better.
In terms of noise performance, when I use the wearable air conditioner and the hanging air ring, I put the decibel meter to the ear for testing, and in general, the hanging air ring is less noisy because it is far from the ear, and the high gear of the wearing air conditioner close to the ear is indeed noisier. If it is not particularly hot, I personally recommend low and medium range.
• "3 Gear Noise of Wearing Air Conditioner": 50dB / 57dB / 62dB
• "3 Gear Noise of the Hanging Wind Ring": 48dB / 53dB / 58dB
• "Three gear noise of wearing air conditioner + hanging wind ring": 52dB / 58dB / 62dB
Finally, the battery capacity of the two portable cooling devices is very top, the wearable air conditioner is 6000mAh, the hanging waist wind ring is 5000mAh, the actual use of battery life performance is a day, and both support 15-18W fast charging technology, 1.5 hours can be fully charged, but also support while charging, so use for a long time + fast charging, these two experiences can kill many competitors in seconds.
Fourth, how to evaluate the two summer cooling artifacts of Tulas wearing air conditioners and hanging waist wind rings?
After the experience evaluation of this article, let's summarize the experience of the two products. For male users, umbrella or handheld fan solutions are often less acceptable when going out in summer. The emergence of Tulas wearing air conditioners and hanging waist wind rings has well filled our needs for outdoor cooling in summer.
In terms of user experience, "Tulas Cool Fly 3 Wearable Air Conditioner" innovatively adds a solution of 3 semiconductors + 4 microfans + 7 air outlets, which can not only realize active cooling and heating, but also the large triangle design of the back of the neck can penetrate the air duct deep into the upper back to cool the face, neck and back.
The experience advantage of "Tulas Waist Wind Ring" is mainly reflected in the cooling of the abdomen and lower back, filling the cooling needs of the middle and lower backs that cannot be reached by wearing air conditioning. At the same time, the cold-sensing material on the inside can absorb heat and become liquid, improving the comfort of the contact surface.
From the above two portable cooling products experience, as a leading brand of portable fans, Tulas has deeply cultivated high-quality products with rich functions, excellent experience and long-lasting battery life in this field, which is worthy of consumers to pay for this innovative quality experience.
Of course, I would like to make some suggestions for improvement in the iteration of the two products, first of all, the shape of the hanging waist wind ring is still slightly convex, and the foreign body feeling is slightly stronger. Consider increasing the curvature while rounding the corners and making it more natural to fit the garment. Secondly, there are only 2 rear air outlets for wearing air conditioners, and you can consider adding 2 more to improve the contact area between the back and the wind.
Finally, I am also very impressed that a leading brand in the 3C accessories industry such as Tulas can avoid inefficient involution, enhance core competitiveness with technological innovation, and gain consumer favor with quality improvement, and embark on the road of leapfrogging from "Made in China" to "Made in China", I believe it can go further. Since Turas is so mature in the product experience of halter neck and hanging waist, in fact, you can fully consider the development of massage equipment, I believe it is a new track full of opportunities and prospects, let's wait and see.
Thank you for your patience, this is the end of sharing, I am Geek Research Monk, a research monk who loves assessment.
