Whether it is air conditioning in summer or heating in winter, the humidity will decrease. If the humidity is too low, people will feel uncomfortable, dry skin and even nosebleeds. At this time, having a humidifier seems to be a very necessary thing.
I just saw the smartmi sterilizing humidifier 1S in the Xiaomi store. Introduction This humidifier can not only humidify, but also sterilize the water in the humidifier. OK, let Tookfun come to experience this humidifier in detail.
Appearance details
First we look at the packaging. The design style is almost the same as before. The outline color printing of the humidifier is printed on the front of the package. We can clearly see in the upper right corner that this device supports Xiaoai classmates and has been connected to the Mijia smart ecological chain. In other words, this humidifier can be controlled by a voice assistant.
We opened the package and took out all the accessories. Humidifier, product manual, power cord and power adapter. The entire humidifier is divided into two parts: water tank and host. The water tank has a capacity of 3.5L, and the realization of the humidifier function is completely dependent on the host part below.
On the lid of the water tank, we can see the “smartmi” logo. After getting the equipment, the first impression is that the material of this humidifier is very thick.
The water tank is divided into two layers. The inner layer is transparent hard plastic, and the outer layer is the outer shell of the humidifier. The internal design also looks very reasonable. The filter inside is detachable, which is conducive to daily cleaning. The same water tank is also marked with the maximum injection line MAX. In daily use, the water tank should not exceed the maximum water level in general. Next to it is the outlet of the humidifier atomized water vapor, which is not connected to the water tank. The mist outlet is glued to the water tank and cannot be disassembled.
The water tank has a large opening for easy filling and cleaning. There is also a transparent scale bar on the outside of the water tank to facilitate the observation of the water level in the water tank.
The device at the bottom of the water tank is used to drain water. When cleaning the water tank, we need to hold this area with our hands. Wait until the water in the water tank has completely flowed out. And there is a removable protective filter at the bottom of the water tank to prevent particles or large particles in the water from entering the humidifier.
The material of the main unit’s functional area looks very strong, and the internal planning is also very clear. Let me tell you the whole working principle of 1S.
First, the water from the water tank penetrates into the water inlet, and then the water flows to the sterilization area. There is an ultraviolet germicidal lamp in the middle of the sterilization area. As long as the host is working, the flowing water will be sterilized, which can well remove tiny bacteria in the water. As the water in the sterilization area overflows, the water flows to the atomization area. The most important accessories in the atomization area are the atomization film and the water shortage protection sensor ball. The function of the atomizing film is to atomize the water into water vapor; the water shortage induction protection ball is to detect whether the water tank is short of water, and it will automatically shut down after the water shortage. The function of the air outlet is to use the fan to vigorously exhaust the outside air, and squeeze the water vapor in the entire atomization area to the air outlet. This forms the entire humidification effect.
Below this triangular part is the key part of “sterilization” in the sterilization humidifier. Below is a UV lamp. There is a corresponding logo “Ultra UVGI” on the protective cover. UVGI means ultraviolet light irradiation for sterilization and disinfection. The sign on the right tells us not to observe with our eyes at will to prevent accidents.
In the middle of the front of the host is a circular OLED touch screen. Not only is it good-looking, it can also display all kinds of information intuitively. There is another physical button on the back, which is used to control the screen brightness of the humidifier and to reset the network settings of the humidifier. When you sleep at night, you can adjust the brightness to the lowest level to prevent the brightness of the LED screen of the humidifier from affecting your rest.
The bottom circle of the host is an air inlet. It is equipped with a sponge as a coarse filter and cannot be disassembled. It may take a long time to clean the vacuum cleaner.
Feeling of using
Next we will actually operate. Add an appropriate amount of water to the water tank. 1S supports adding water when power is on. It is best to add purified water or tap water. Distilled water and other water are not recommended. Of course, if someone wants to add essential oils, this is not recommended.
Turn on the power, you can see the circular touch screen at the bottom of the humidifier lights up. Directly through touch or long press and other operations, you can easily control on/off, gear switching, scheduled shutdown, target humidity, etc. The response is also very fast. It is divided into 1h, 2h, 3h, etc. in the setting of timing shutdown; the target humidity is divided into 30%, 40%, 50%, etc.; the wind power is divided into 1, 2, 3 and the strongest. When the wind gear is in the strongest gear, the equipment does not have the concept of target humidity. In this case, the device will automatically enter the standby state after running for 4.5 hours.
After the adjustment is completed, do not do any operation, the screen will automatically jump to the main page after 3 seconds. In the main page, we can see the current humidity, wind, set time, ambient temperature and Wi-Fi connection status.
When the wind is 1, 2, or 3, it may not be easy to detect the amount of water vapor at the air outlet. But once it is adjusted to the strongest gear, we can see that the air outlet discharges very large mist. The maximum amount of fog per hour can be 400mL/h, and if you touch it by hand, it will feel very delicate and moist.
The humidifier runs quietly, and the wind noise is small.
Linkage with Mijia APP
Of course, smartmi’s smart home appliances can also be linked with Mijia APP. Add a new device in the Mijia APP, the APP will automatically scan nearby and add it to the Mijia device management.
When the first connection is successful, the APP will pop up the operation instructions. Tell the user a simple method of use, so that the user is very easy to use.
Take a look at the control interface of the humidifier. At the top is the current temperature and power status (on/off), and in the middle is the current room humidity in large numbers. Since the measurement is centered on the humidifier, it is measured with a thermometer and hygrometer built into the humidifier. The overall humidity in the room is not exactly the same, so you can buy a Mijia Thermo-hygrometer to help measure the humidity and temperature in your home.
The smart linkage of smart home can be used here. When the trigger conditions you set are met, the humidifier can be automatically turned on/off.
Of course, you can also set the humidifier’s wind power, target humidity, display brightness, turn on/off child lock, etc. on the APP. And 1S also comes with an abnormal operation monitoring function. When the humidifier is moved, the humidifier is not stable or the water tank is not installed, or the water tank is short of water, it will automatically send a notification and alarm to the APP.
Of course, as mentioned earlier, 1S can also be controlled by Xiaoai voice assistant.
Conclusion
Then the advantages and disadvantages of 1S are discussed below, which only represent personal opinions.
Advantage:
- This humidifier is small in size and occupies a small space in the room;
- The 3.5L capacity water tank can meet the consumption of 3-4 angels. Continuous humidification can also be used for 16 hours;
- The humidification effect is obvious, and the amount of fog is also large. The mist is very delicate;
- Intelligent control, change the wind speed and atomization speed according to the environmental humidity.
Disadvantages:
- Part of the charging cable of the humidifier is connected to the host and is not removable. It is not very convenient when moving;
- With intelligent control, the OLED screen usage rate will be very small;
- The overall weight of the humidifier is heavy.
This smartmi sterilization humidifier 1S is not only an ordinary humidifier, it also has its own sterilization function. The large water tank uses antibacterial materials and ultraviolet lamps to sterilize. It can operate intelligently and can be connected to the Mijia ecological chain to achieve more linkages. These characteristics make it an excellent humidifier. If you also have a lot of Mijia devices, then I think this is a humidifier worth buying.
