I've ordered 2 from HD. These are going for $59 and it comes with lithium battery and charger. If you're active or retired military don't forget to sign up for or show your military I.D. to get a 10% discount. I found this to be a great deal to say the least AND if they go on sale for Father's Day thats even a better savings. Also, I got an extra 2 pack battery set 4.0 vs the 1.5V that comes with the fan for $79 normally $175. Anyway, I can't handle any heat (a redhead) so I'm limited to only doing gardening in the mornings in the shade. The humidity is crazy here in the mid-atlantic but with these it just might make it doable and then some. I was in search of the misting kit to install on an oscillating fan but it's something you can't leave outside when it rains (We're old .. and forgetful). Popped over to YT and up you popped and started my search based on your review. The bucket fan is so COOL..no pun intended ;). This is my first vid of yours and enjoyed it from start to finish. Liked and new sub and can't wait to watch your others and the new ones to come.Thank you so much for taking the time to do this. Time, hard work, details, editing etc really show thru. You also made me miss all my engineer, buddies, friends and coworkers from the SF Bayarea tech companies... Great Job!
I bought an icy breeze cooler to keep my kids cool while camping . Although it works good but only for a couple hours it just wasn't enough, not enough cooling time and not enough cooling area. Pretty much it's only for one person. It's also useless as a cooler if you are using it as an ac. Bought this ryobi bad boy and its substantially better for cooling. For a wider area, lasts tons longer and the kids love this fun little thing. They love playing with it and smashing thier faces in the mist. I highly recommend it for camping amongst other applications. This was an excellent demo and video.
These look nice and are reasonably well built. I bought 4 of them at Christmas, for use this summer during outdoor events under a 10 x 10 canopy. I tested one out a couple of weeks ago and holy smoke, these things pump water out like a fireman's hose. Everything gets soaked no matter what fan speed or the pump speed, so I'm taking them back and exchanging for the standard fan. If I need a mister, I'll either rent a proper industrial unit (as I did previously and I mistakenly thought these would be comparable - they are absolutely not) or buy a high pressure 'proper' mister unit and power it off a generator. Sad thing is, I bought 8 of the high capacity batteries and supercharger port to ensure these things would last all day. Don't expect a lot. Yes, they'll water your plants, but if you are using them for cooling, make sure you are wearing a wet-suit...
Im using to cool myself while on/off the riding mower and watering the garden etc...so getting wet, for me, is an awesome plus!! Thanks for your comments.
@@sassylrhg Oo-er, Holly, I guess that didn't quite come out the way you meant it... Looking at it from that perspective might have me change my mind... ;))
That’s how I know Jeff is an engineer, “And we know...” that’s the same way we start solving engineering problems when I was in engineering. Fellow Mech Engr. Here!
Planning on Getting an insulated 5 gal bait bucket.. tried adding a 4lb bag of ice and ooooweeeeee 🥶 with this az heat, best thing I’ve bought in a while.
I was looking for a battery powered fan, and almost bought the Bauer 20v from HF, but by luck while watching fan reviews, I stumbled upon this review. Never heard of a bucket top misting fan, and after watching I searched and found the Kobalt, and Artic Cove. Bang for buck I ordered the Ryobi. I have B+D 5Ah 20v batteries, but use an adapter for my Ryobi tools, so although it's more than I wanted to spend for a fan, the misting function made the deal. And as for the lack of rafter hooks, that's solved by some wire bending.
We had to work on a family member's outdoor storage unit in the desert. It was usually over 100F degrees if not 110. We depended on battery power for lights, fans, and this little misting fan combined with a Home Depot bucket and a cooler of 20lbs of ice and some water really helped. It didn't cool a large area, but it was noticeable when it was off. Also, it would be a nice break to stand right next to it and get a cool mist in your face and on your clothes. Sure it'd dry off in a matter of minutes, but it was a nice break.
When I have to film videos outside in the hot summer here in Florida, I often have my missing fan running off on the side and I'll just step into its path when I need to quit cool down and between camera takes
Amazing that there are other posties looking for ways to be “cool”…. In Canada I have a STEPVAN and can separate the front from the back. I may just blow it out the door, and mist my face. Ha Ha….
Dewalt does not offer a misting fan ,only a job site fan but ryobi offers bolth so if you want a job fan or a misting fan ryobi has it just saying , not saying witch is better.
For 2 fans, comes w/1.5 ah battery plus I ordered 2 extra4.0 ah batteries with tax included came out to be $131. There’s some sort of special promo when I called Home Depot customer service today.
jeffostroff sorry. I actually re watched. I lots of times watch these tryin got Help my kids ( infant /toddler) fall Asleep so I don’t have it on very loud. I loved the video and didn’t catch the details. Thx for replying and yes u did cover that so I feel I wasted yiur time. Thx for the help. Love this channel. It also appears the dewalt doesn’t sit on a bucket? I clocked in yiur dewalt Fan vid. Looks like I’d prefer the ryobi
I would love to have one of these for my camping trips or for when I am working in my garage in the summer. however I have not been able to find one anywhere in Las Vegas, and every time I have tried to order it online it gets cancelled due to availability. I am starting to believe that they don't really exist...
It is a fake fan, they never existed, I never recorded this video LOL! That's messed up that they keep cancelling. Just keep at it, also look on eBay and Amazon, prices all over the place some good some gouging.
I live in Vegas and got one at Home Depot for my garage. The problem I have is that it gets the floor in the garage really wet, really fast, even on low. I'm trying to figure out if there's a way to adjust the nozzles.
Yes the only thing is you really do need to use it outside 'cause it's not a super fine mist so it will get you wet I mean I love standing in front of it and getting a little moist and then walking away and feeling cool. But it's not like you could sit next to it and read a magazine without it getting soaking wet
👍 Best review I have seen of a product in a while. From beginning to end very informative. Thumbs up and a new sub. What battery do you recommend for this can you use the 4.0 Ah ? Keep up the great work.
On a side note you have to very careful of the plastic misting ports there have been reports of them breaking and thus you lose the brass pieces so take special care as there are no replacement parts for brass parts.
I love my misting fan, but one side of the mister is not working after one summer. Any help on what may be going on or how to remedy this? Thank you - wonderful video
Best review. I love bucket fans and you. Great information 👍. However I wish the video could have been longer. Can you extend the video or issue a director's cut. I feel like you missed a lot of specs. Pleas do equation on 3 gallon buckets 🪣 I currently only have access to my neighbors 3 gallon bucket. Do they make adapters for different bucket sizes? Thanks for the information the video was a bit shor for my taste . Next time I'm sure the video will cover all the information that you missed in this one. T.L.G.B (Thug life, God bless)
I had one of these when they were branded ArcticCove. Was really great, at a low price point. It did have a tendency to kill my batteries if I "fell asleep" with it on.
I measure across from the usable part where air flows. CFM is a measurement of measured velocity times the area. So it does not matter what area you think is obstructed, because the meter measures the actual wind speed it sees, not some reduced amount that we think the plastic might block the air it measures what it sees.
@@jeffostroff on point, the anemometer fan is large a enough to get an average. it will be great to compare fans in regard how high it lift a section of a foam aircraft wing : )
I'm not to sure the funny thing it is compatible with the ryobi battery platform. Maybe rebranded from a bigger company, trying to have brand recognition at HD. because befor the ryobi one for the last maybe 6 years every summer the artic cove would pop up around summer.
My mister became clogged. I unclocked it with vinegar water. I, unfortunately left the vinegar water with mister in it. vinegar water grew mothers (bacteria) and now I have another clog. I don't know if it is the filter at end of hose or the pump. Nothing is going through the tube. Any suggestions?
Not sure what would clog that up I would think more wet vinegar vinegar soaking it for about 5 minutes or to loosen to enough. If that doesn't help try putting in some boiling water.
Nice vid Jeff the only thing I could find out for you about the fan was that on High it is 2,100 RPMS and on low is 1,300 RPMS I a not sure how to do the conversion from RPMS To Cfms will leave that to you.
will this work for a portable power station with an AC plug that limits out at 200 watts? I saw it is cordless and has a battery charger but do you have the option to plug it in and use it continuously?
Can you drop the water tube into any body of water, a pool or kiddie pool? Heading on vacation soon and taking this to keep my daughter cool by the pool?
How come nobody knows ryobi is a homedepot brand now ? Sure u can still buy them in other places but tti has linked with the depot to make all the rental tools ryobi an also switch them to complete display but they get robbed so much they kept it as it was
Jeff I'm looking to get a impack so I can take lug nuts and stuff like that off,,any ideas,dewalt or Milwaukee,,I have a 1/4 ryobi,,and that only goes to 166 lbs

I think it's hilarious I just knew that was a Lowe's Bucket from the beginning and it was? I don't understand why you even try to compare the DeWalt fan when it doesn't mist?
I wonder if you'd get that perfect barbeque scent if you were to ...saay... put 5 gallons of distilled-water in the bucket and a drop or two of liquid mesquite smoke 😁 Time to lure people with fake barbecue air! WHY?! To be eccentric! That's why!
The mist fan kick ass when its 100 degree with 100% humidity in Texas. I put ice and cold drinks in mines.

Thanks Ashley, welcome aboard!
I was sold today soon as I walked into the garden center of Home Depot out of 102 degree temps 😃😃😃😃😃😃
This was absolutely so educating! thank you for showing the process!!!!
I’m taking this on my boat , the heat was no joke yesterday
It has been brutal the last 2 weeks!
Just showed up in canada! Just ordered mine and dangling the hose off the boat when im fishing
finally, took so lonnnnnnng!
I was wondering about this exact same thing. I live in Phoenix and this would be great on my fishing boat. How long is the hose or did yo modify it?
A most excellent review just what I was looking for thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
After hurricane Laura, the dewalt fans were a lifesaver but i sure could have used the ryobi
Very handy fan, we should call it Mister Mister
As a mailman in south Florida I'm wondering how well this would work in a mail truck
That would be cool to see. Clamp it to your window frame. 40 hours on a6 ah battery, I estimate 24-30 hours on a 4 aH battery
have you try this in the LLV already?
It will get the mail very very wet.
Amazing that there are other posties looking for ways to be “cool”…. In Canada I have a STEPVAN and can separate the front from the back. I may just blow it out the door, and mist my face. Ha Ha….
The misting function will damage the mail. The fan however I assume would be just fine, and it's nice to find one that's on a battery.
Available on Black Friday at direct tools for $35 with free shipping :) (and an electrostatic sprayer.)
Great job Jeff that why I like your video very detailed
Glad you enjoyed it thanks for watching another one, Anthony!

got item numbers?
Neighbors- Jeff is over there throwing stuff off his roof again.
They run for cover whenever I do
Haha
Our chic fil a here all use this fan, like ten of em. I assume they work well
The ones I see here are on top of an ice bucket. It isn’t pumped in water. Maybe different fan
Lots of people use this with ice in their water bucket.
How fast does it empty five gallons or can u control how much water it pumps out
@@donotrobme9295 We showed it in the video, it takes 4 hours at high mist speed to empty that 5 gallon bucket.

Right on! But I like the color scheme
@@jeffostroff You do have a point LOL
i need this for summer camping
It will cool you off for sure
Any ideas on what I can set the bucket and fan on to make it oscillate? Anything homemade?
You can get one of those spinning rotating tables Like the jewelers used to show off jewelry on

I wonder if thees nozzles are common parts to other misters. I'll see if the nozzles from my old household misting system work.
@@jeffostroff that would be a good idea to see if they are interchangeable well getting ready for part 2 of the pipeline cant wait
I love my misting fan, but one side of the mister is not working after one summer. Any help on what may be going on or how to remedy this? Thank you - wonderful video
Maybe the mister got clogged if you can soak it in vinegar for a few minutes that should help
Sewing needle in appetite will usually clear it.
really... good .......👍👍👍

How long does 5 gallons last at the high pump setting. How long at the low pump speed setting?
low pump high fan im gettin 3.5 hours, battery still has 2 bars after (4ah)
Great review! Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Would have been better if reviewed before summer is almost over! Don’t think I need a misting fan when it’s snowing.
We are hot all year round. Unfortunately we could not get our hands on one until a week ago online.
I had one of these when they were branded ArcticCove. Was really great, at a low price point. It did have a tendency to kill my batteries if I "fell asleep" with it on.
Jeff...
Thoughts on using units inside a greenhouse? Obviously extending the suction line or hose outputs LOL
I think these would work great. You saw how far it can blow the mist if you need it to go far.
Great service!!
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it!
Nice 👌👍🏼✌🏼Thank Jeff
Thanks for coming back for more JR
I'm thinking about getting this for when I have to work on fixing A/C's in 120°+ attics but I'm concerned it'll soak all the insulation around me.
Great video I saw them and wondered about them.....now I’m thinking I might want one that means another battery platform 🤦♂️🤦♂️
Maybe wait for the next Ryobi Days or battery kit deals where you get a tool free.
jeffostroff I do have a couple old batteries.....the charger shit the bed just never replaced it yet.
Man you never told a lie, but ryobi is affordable so f it and you can always hit a pawn shop to grab a battery or eBay for a large knock off batt
Really good.... RYOBI ...?
This is one nice tool, we'll see how well it does over time.
Good video but I am amazed someone could spend the better part of a half hour on a demo of this fan.
watch it at double speed
there is at least 20% plastic fan frame obstruction, shouldnt the area be 20% less?
I measure across from the usable part where air flows. CFM is a measurement of measured velocity times the area. So it does not matter what area you think is obstructed, because the meter measures the actual wind speed it sees, not some reduced amount that we think the plastic might block the air it measures what it sees.

This is exactly like the artic cove misiting fan
Who makes the Arctic Cove one?
I'm not to sure the funny thing it is compatible with the ryobi battery platform. Maybe rebranded from a bigger company, trying to have brand recognition at HD. because befor the ryobi one for the last maybe 6 years every summer the artic cove would pop up around summer.

Well there really isn't a way to convert, because you must measure wind speed to calculate CFM
@@jeffostroff ok just thought I help out in anyway i could
Too bad it doesn't have a variable speed switch like the Ridgid 18V Hybrid fan. The Ridgid doesn't have the misting feature though.
Is this fan prone to clogged misting nozzles due to hardwater?
So far Has not clogged Yet but if it Does clog you can just unscrew them and soap them in vinegar for a few minutes
I want one them fans,I can use that with flower seeds in the spring
Yes, and some people have told us they put ice inn the water for 100 degree summer days too
9ft = 16.4 mph not bad, is that cap something you really need anyway?
I'm sure the fan could live without the caps
Can you do a review of the new ego 18" misting fan . Fn1800
I have not even seen it in any of the stores I would like to score one of those
Can you some dry ice in a bucket and use it for A/C? Instead of using water?
I have not tried that
Would do a good job keeping the dust down too
Yes, and these are so useful outside on muggy hot days
Good stuff!!
Glad you enjoyed it
will this work for a portable power station with an AC plug that limits out at 200 watts? I saw it is cordless and has a battery charger but do you have the option to plug it in and use it continuously?
No plug in option, battery only
@@jeffostroff that’s. lame. And it only lasts like 3 hours on a full charge? How long to recharge battery to full capacity once depleted?
@@eyesopen3766 almost 3 hrs to charge the battery
Which of these can be set to oscillate back-and-forth?
Can you close the cover if using the 9AH battery? (Great review BTW)
I do not know I don't have a 9 amp hour battery to test
It does not cover. The 4.0 does.
Does the 9amp hour battery fit inside this?
I have not tried it, don't have a 9 ah
Good video, how long did the five bucket of water last with the fan and mister going?
I showed it in the video 12:30 it runs for about 4 hours to empty a full 5 gallon bucket
I really loved this review, but I gotta ask about those bloody looking handprints on the wall. Did you drop someone off the roof too for "science?"
Our kid splaying with finger paint
does the mist pump shut off after pumping dry?..
Can you drop the water tube into any body of water, a pool or kiddie pool? Heading on vacation soon and taking this to keep my daughter cool by the pool?
Yes, this will work in any water that the tube can drop down into
How come nobody knows ryobi is a homedepot brand now ? Sure u can still buy them in other places but tti has linked with the depot to make all the rental tools ryobi an also switch them to complete display but they get robbed so much they kept it as it was
Jeff...possible you can post the size of the nozzles? Brass ones are abundant on Amazon. I have not heard back from Ryobi yet. Thanks!!
Ryobi does not specify the size
Not a great test with wind, but great review
Thanks 👍
Thanks for the detailed video.
Ridgid, your turn!
You bet gary!
Does it have to use a 5 gal. bucket for the pump to work? Just unboxed and tried with a bottle water and doesn’t mist.
Tried other things like a gallon jug?
Real talk about them being sold out. Saw three of them and I thought maybe next time. 2 days later they were all gone!
Yup, They sold out on us in June when I did the same thing and luckily they came back in stock online as a tool only version here.
Does this also have a regular plug in like some of their others fans have?
No, bummer, this only runs off batteries, so 2 or 3 4ah batteries would last all day. You would need to refill the bucket after a few hours also
Someone paid attention in math class
I’d be more worried about a faulty battery and any charge/fire after the drop than the fan itself.
Jeff I'm looking to get a impack so I can take lug nuts and stuff like that off,,any ideas,dewalt or Milwaukee,,I have a 1/4 ryobi,,and that only goes to 166 lbs
I am holding out for one of these new Milwaukee impact wrenches to hit the streets in November, here they are:

Thank you,,I will pick one up,,
So a bucket of ice water would work better?
That would be awesome
How long did your new battery take to charge? I’ve been charging this for a couple hours, and it’s still blinking “charging.”
I think around 3 hours on 4 ah
Can’t find this online

How water misting occurs ?
When you sit it atop a 5 gallon bucket of water, it sucks up the water and feeds it to 2 nozzles in front of the fan
I think it's hilarious I just knew that was a Lowe's Bucket from the beginning and it was? I don't understand why you even try to compare the DeWalt fan when it doesn't mist?
I compared the two fans because the Ryobi has a mode where you're not using the mist and so it therefore acts just like the DeWalt fan
Where can I buy this at lower price? Thanks!
Maybe if you live near a Amazon liquidation store/warehouse you'll luck out? Otherwise it's full price.
How long does the battery last per charge
A 4 app era battery on the last 3 hours
How long does the battery last though
4ah over 4 hours low pump high fan
But we are the source manufacturer
Careful in a tent. Great idea but u wake up wet
You know it, you can't even read a book or magazine sitting out in the sun with it, the mist accumulates into water fast.
the regular dewalt fan costs too much
I got the DeWalt fan in March for $99 with the battery, and other people told me they got it also with batter for $75 on sale.
that's a 4Amp battery, correct?
Yes he larger battery was 4 ah
I wonder if you'd get that perfect barbeque scent if you were to ...saay... put 5 gallons of distilled-water in the bucket and a drop or two of liquid mesquite smoke 😁
Time to lure people with fake barbecue air! WHY?!
To be eccentric! That's why!
Awesome idea!
the 9 ft drop looked brtutal.
I love the Triple Lindy bounce!
Home Depot tool on a Lowe’s bucket 🤦🏻♂️😂
I love doing blasphemy!
If it wasn’t for Ryobi/Milwaukee, there wouldn’t be a reason to step inside HD.
Too long on the rotation, bye bye. Better lock next time
Getting all scientific but using imperial measurements... fail. Use SI units
Here in the U. S. that is what we use
Eff you air conditioner!
