Am I the only person in Singapore who use this weird looking purifier?

It is really effective because no fan, no filter, no sound, no wear & tear parts

Your device looks like an ionizer. Those pins emitting the ions will wear and tear with your usage.

There many types of pins, most ionizer has only a few copper pins but this one uses 24 big bunchs of tungsten pins which supposed to last much longer.

Anyway a spare "head" only cost a few dollars

anyone know which xiaomi store has ready stock for xiaomi pro pls?

Looks like the haze situation has caused a stock shortage.

I went to causeway point yesterday to get one for my parents and no stock for all purifiers. Asked whether other branches had stock, the girl said no stock in all SG Xiaomi stores.

I bought the second last filter too at the branch too.

I didn’t bother about the temperature n humidity readings. Don’t know accurate or not. :s13:

for the xiaomi AP Pro , how come the display on the unit and my hp app is always different ?

The temperature and humidity matches thought. So which one should i refer to ?

Also , i actually bought it ysterday and tested it from evening to night .... got a reading hovering around 50 - 60 ....

Today i monitor whole day, 80s to high 90 sia, wun come down at all .... zz

80s to high 90 u referring to PM2.5? Manual mode or auto mode fan speed? Windows closed?

The auto mode is literally useless imo. I always set to favorite mode, usually only set one time and always use operate at that setting. Hardly go change again unless haze got terribly bad. So far still yet to adjust up the fan speed despite recent haze. Still effective enough to keep PM2.5 down.

Play around with the fan speed vs the noise, see which setting is good enough to keep PM2.5 down and yet is not noisy for oneself/family.

Without casing as in this type? Probably mainly only cosmetic appearance. And no inbuilt battery - not really impt. Can always use powerbank. These pretty much the same imo (at least for me, cos I using it to see if air turning bad or improving, not so much on whether readings accurate or not). Good enough.

Maybe some more “sensitive”, some fluctuate lesser etc ... some more displays. Some lesser.

I went to the causeway point xiaomi today too, their stocks in warehouse all gone, now waiting for shipment to come in. Left my contact in waitlist, now wait for them to contact me. Hopefully next week? But they cannot confirm when the shipment will come.

Does all the 小米 AP (from 2s and newer) have the ability to monitor localised air quality (& not poll online sources) & throttle up & down their activity to respond to deteriorating conditions?

Anybody knows? Btw, do the Xiaomi ap series offer the ability to store and schedule and run completely offline (no wifi connection after initial setup)?

If suddenly lost connection and unable to detect during setup again despite reset many times 2.4Ghz wifi, region set China... try downgrade to older MiHome version. If still cannot, maybe can try the method below. Not sure if it works.

Alternatively, last resort is to use mobile hotspot instead of usual home wifi to setup, to at least able to get back the control, set fan speed... (use two phones. 1st phone mobile hotspot to 2nd phone. 2nd phone do the setup. This method usually works, able to detect despite all other methods failed to detect the AP from home 2.4Ghz wifi during setup).

Edit: Steps as below
