Equinox

The EcoAir Equinox is a 16-inch DC pedestal fan that balances genuinely strong airflow with very low energy use. Its DC motor draws as little as 3.5 watts per hour, so at ~26p/kWh it costs well under a penny an hour to keep a room moving with cool air — a fraction of what an old mains fan would use. Twelve speed settings give far more control than the typical two or three, letting you tune airflow from a soft overnight breeze to a strong daytime draught. A multi-function remote and LED control panel make adjustments effortless from the sofa or bed, while an auto-shutdown function adds peace of mind if you drift off. The 16-inch blade moves a lot of air per turn, making the Equinox a capable circulator for living rooms as well as bedrooms, and it works year-round — cooling in summer and helping spread warmth in winter. At a light 7kg and £59.99 brand-new, it's a versatile, quiet and economical DC fan for households that want effective cooling without watching the meter climb.
