Device uses movement of ions to generate airflow without any moving parts like in iPads and MacBook Air.
Not a fan
It Fannot. Or it Fan’t.

I want to put one in a Valve Steamdeck.
Nintendo Switch would be more compelling.
It would be a good use case; however, you can only do so much with a cut down version of a SOC that was originally made in 2015. It may be work for very little gains.
Speaking from experience here, and limited information from the company, this looks like a polished version of a high-voltage grid accelerator.

What can be an expected concern is that besides ionizing air and imparting motion to neutral air molecules as the ionized ones rush from one plate to the other, that same effect can and will charge dust particles. That “collector plate” will need to be easily accessible.
Ionic acceleration of air needs high voltages and the air gets ionized (the reason people recommend against vacuuming a PC). I’m surprised that it works at all in close proximity to sensible tech.
Edit: right, low static pressure, meaning: lower voltages. But still not low.
They use a grounded faraday cage around it. Video on it where he touched on that https://youtu.be/fyai_kUYhLs
Can’t watch the video rn, anything about the dust problem?
I think Dave2D made a video about those. He was cautiously optimistic.
Yes.
Is this the same way those bladeless Dyson fans work?
I have a house filter that functions on the same principal… Lol!
Hey! Are you crazy!!! You’re wearing pants while using your new iPad? Those pants club iPads in mere seconds! Try new silicone pants! Silicone pants are as clean as polystyrene without the downsides of other clean fabrics such as glass fabric! Get them at Walmart! Or get a new IPad Thin! It comes with a clean set including underwear, hair removal creme, pants, T-shirt and panties and bra for women. You can get a discount if you don’t want the unisex version. The I-condom comes included with Bluetooth.
