TORRAS COOLiFY [All-New, Upgraded Powerful Airflow] Industry-First Portable Neck Fan - Rechargeable, 360° Airflow, Hands-Free Bladeless Cooling, For Yard Work, Indoor, Outdoor Use - Elegant Ivory

I highly recommend the Coolify 2S! I have to be outside for extended periods of time, even during the summer, and the 2S is a life-saver. It often gets above 95° where I am so the cooling plates really come in handy. At 95° and above, especially in the sun, the cooling power is not as strong as in the shade but that is understandable because of the extreme heat. Even in the sun, you will not see me without it in the summer!I have tried other cheaper neck fans and I can promise that the 2S is in it’s own category. It is more expensive but it is worth it if you need real cooling power on demand. The battery life lasts 3.5 hours on the highest setting and it recharges fast, plus it has pass through charging so you can use it while it’s plugged in and charging. You can tell its high quality just by holding it, and it is very quiet for the cooling power it provides. Also their customer service is wonderful and they provide a very good warranty with the purchase so you can use it without worry.If you need a break from the heat don’t waste your time with cheap fans. The 2S is the best available!

One of our family members is very sensitive to the heat and has been using the Torras Coolify Air for the past year. The Air has been a super helpful product, and it has made it easier to endure the heat and humidity. We like the Coolify Air so much that we stayed with Torras without even considering any other brands and purchased the Coolify 2S.The single hinge in the middle of this model allows for an ergonomic fit around the neck that strikes a great balancebetween snugness and comfort. The dual cooling plates make a huge difference. The single rear cooling plate on the Air was very good, but the plates on the 2S model cover more of the neck and genuinely feel much colder. The 2S also has a great optional mobile app that works very well and allows for easy settings changes and firmware updates, as well as the ability to turn off the sound indicators when changing modes. The battery percentage indicator is very useful, the build quality feels very substantial and premium, and the included carrying case is a wonderful addition.This is a great product, and it provides long-lasting cooling that is unmatched at making the heat more bearable. Torras is a wonderful company with outstanding customer service, and we have enjoyed every one of their products so far. I definitely recommend the Coolify 2S!

I am revising my original review. The unit I purchased appeared to have been faulty: after a short period of use, it shut down before the battery was completely drained. I was about to send it back when a fresh heatwave prompted me to give it a second try: it restarted, but after a while died again in mid-action, with battery at 55%.After I processed the return and shipped the faulty unit back, I was contacted by a Torras representative. I would give Five Stars for customer service alone. I received very personal and accommodating support, and a free replacement unit which was shipped to a different location where I am currently traveling. As I'm now enjoying a cooler spell, I haven't needed to use it much, but I have received detailed care instructions to make sure the battery gets calibrated properly (which turned out to be pretty much what I did to start with, by accident): let the battery drain completely the first few times around, and recharge to 100%. After that, treat as any other lithium battery and keep the charge between 20% and 80% or so. That last recommendation might be hard to follow, when traveling and unable to recharge the unit on the go.I will report on my further experience, but here are some thoughts:• WEIGHT: it isn't super light. As a petite woman, I find it most useful when stationary - it's not something you'd want to run with (but then who wants to run in 90+ degree weather anyway)• COMFORT: weight and comfort go together, but it's not so heavy as to make me uncomfortable when just sitting or moving around the house. I noticed that reviewers of other neck fans complained about tightness. I can't say how this would feel on someone much bigger, but there is ample room, and the device has a built-in hinge at the center, encased in rubber, that allows you to open it wider, and the circumference feels like it could easily accommodate a larger individual• EFFECTIVENESS: Indoors, I think it actually does a great job. There is a stream of really cold air plus the unit itself is cold to touch (I had some family members try it on for size and esp. some women found it "too cold"). There are 3 cooling setting C1, C2, C3, but if you pair it with a phone app, you can add a couple in-between settings. There is also just a plain fan (I haven't used that at all - I need the ice-cold - but after I've cooled off, C1 is sufficient).Outdoors: It is less effective - the ambient heat just seems to absorb and neutralize the cool air emitted by the fan, but the cool touch of the panels does bring some relief.• EFFICIENCY: I need to test the new unit in terms of battery power. The original one I returned was clearly faulty; however, at C2-C3, it seemed to last a few hours. The maximal advertised might perhaps be achieved in the fan-only mode.• PORTABILITY: I am currently traveling with it, and expect it will be a salvation if I ever get stuck again on a broken train in the middle of nowhere during a heat wave... But you must prioritize: added to other electronic devices, it might be too much, going off the grid - short-lived, but then great for more urban travel, when you can pack light and accommodate the device. It comes with a handy (and sturdy) case, and a USB-C to USB-C charger. Can be recharged using a power bank.One thing to note, if you are considering other brands, there aren't that many that generate genuinely cold air. Most are just fans (even if they have cool blue squiggles coming out of the vents in the product image). So if you're looking for just a plain fan, you might find something lighter / cheaper. But this is one of the few I've seen that effectively uses the Peltier effect to generate cool air. Plus, it's nice to know you can count on great customer service.>>>To be continued.
