Arctic air can cool a car at least some when you're in a dry climate but if you're in a humid climate the Arctic air cooler won't cool you much in a car or in a home.
If the air is really humid where you live the Arctic Air won't do you much good at cooling in a car or home as they are evaporative coolers that use water to create cool air.
The Arctic Air cooler can cover up to 45 sq ft and is designed to cool a small room but it won't do so by itself especially on a hot day despite the claims that the advertising claims.
The Arctic Air can help to bring the temperature down in the room when you use a regular air conditioner and it can help cool you down when sitting next to it.
Arctic air does run on batteries which is recharged with a 120 v charger.
You can leave the Arctic air evaporative cooler plugged into a wall outlet or unplug it and take it with you and use it without an outlet as long as the battery stays charged.
When the battery runs low on the Arctic air you simply plug it back in so that it recharges.
To use the Arctic Air evaporative cooler fill it with water and turn it on.
Plug the small end of the USB cable into the port located on the back of the Arctic Air unit and plug Power Adapter into a wall outlet.
You an also connect a power bank to the USB port to take Arctic Air on the go!
Arctic air will not fully cool a room but it will help to keep you cool when you're next to it and will also help assist with cooling a room when your air conditioner won't keep up.
The Arctic Air is not an air conditioner but instead is an evaporative cooler that is designed to cool you and not the actual room.
But if you're using an air conditioner then the Arctic Air cooler can help to bring down the temperature in the room you're in a few more degrees.
I use my Arctic Air cooler when my air conditioner won't keep up and at night when I turn down my Central AC.
The Arctic Air cooler helps to cool my room enough at night to sleep.
