today we're looking at the 40 volt range from makita
new drill new drill i've got a new drill there are drills in that range gary but
i thought with this hot weather we need something just to just to help with the
general environment so i bought a fan
fan okay well we've had fads and fans before because i think
as we look here on the table we've had the coffee maker that we made before
sterling effort there makes three cups of coffee and it takes an eternity
in order to make those cups of coffee and you've now gone out and bought us a
fan yeah but i like the coffee i mean clearly there's a department
at makita that had like the bonkers department where they could do the
sensible stuff all the time but they've decided to go off and do
coffee machines very useful but i thought well if i'm drinking
coffee i like to be cool and nice and nice and
airy when i'm doing it so yeah so so we've got a fan that works on a
40 volt battery yeah so am i going to need to pin things
down on the table with the propulsion of the air going out well
we'll find out we'll find out we'll get to that we'll get to that there's an
instruction book here wow i know you like to read instructions
and that is probably the biggest instruction we have ever seen
for a fan okay now it's great we've got a fan but always
find in that really hot weather and when you
go lurching towards the fan it just propels warmer air at you at a faster
rate and never really cools you down so you're going to sell this one too yeah
it's not an air conditioner but um so but before i start the so the
40 volt range from akita so obviously 40. it's better than 30.
it's better than 18. um it's 40 volts it must have more power
and if i look at that straight away so here's the battery from my coffee
machine okay let's put them side by side then let's have a
closer look at the same size battery pretty identical and what voltage range
we got there just remind me again uh so this is 18 volts in the coffee machine
and that existing makita tool range for three cups yeah so if i look on the
back there is a watt and a watts per hour rating yeah so this
battery is rated for 54 watts for an hour okay
now this one is rated for 90 watts for an hour okay and it's a lion battery by
the looks of things yeah that's lithium ion okay all right
thanks for clearing lion's raw okay all right let's see if this fan can
roll okay let's let's go and there's there's obviously gonna be some buttons
in there we've got some instructions that we're probably not gonna read so
yeah whack it up hold on before i get there there's one
there's one annoying thing uh apart from gary
and it's the charger
oh wow so is that the fan you've turned off you have a closer look at that it's
got flashing lights bring your camera in there
we'll have a little bit so we'll bring in roving cam let's have a little look
here okay that makes a lot of noise it does
make a lot of noise that's the first thing i realized
is that somehow this fan powered itself miraculously
with not having the battery uh no it's a noisy charger
um so that bleeps away there and the other thing i thought just so i
can use that charger with the one for the coffee machine i don't want to be
having a separate charger to do this adapter
okay so that's that's going to make this be able to go on to that charger yeah
okay so have a look we'll have a little look i'm going to give us a second
okay i'm ready yeah so it clips on there we can now charge the 18 volt is it
yes with the charger that's designed for the 40 volt yeah that's it oh that's
clever a little bit generally i'm no annoying fan
no wait for it i'm waiting oh annoying yeah okay i'm gonna get the annoying fan
right okay so anyway that's the annoying fan out of
the way just switch that off let's get to the other fan okay the
other fan yeah okay so this is now using the 40 volt
battery that's a 40 volt battery okay hold things down and we're ready to
go hold on let's oh see it's working so we can give
the visual display of air coming out we've got a few bits of tape here and a
bit of what packaging i would suggest yeah all
right okay that looks great so you're gonna
flick it on we're gonna see these come out uh in a straight line yeah go on and
follow up it's a fan wow okay that's speed setting
number three so it's three cents that's the fastest speed that's the fastest
speed okay so knock that down that's that's feature number one you can
see it just drift down a little bit there so we'll just
drop down we can do that i'll put it back up to the maximum speed
yep oh yeah and it's is it rotating it is
rotates and it rotates so uh yeah fantastic so
we'll come all the way around with it it's a 360 oh
towards the audience and back again 360-ish
ish yeah okay so if we stopped in a position can we just rotate it around
manually can we tilts as well obviously probably just if we're
actually using it i probably probably want it round this direction really
right yeah towards you yeah yeah so there's nothing worse than
having say a gimmick with lots of bells and whistles and you just always
seem to be playing with those bells and whistles
don't forget anyone who hasn't already make sure you subscribe to the channel
okay and we'd love to have you back on one of our other tour reviews
because of course you know today we are doing
a tour review is what we're doing today is what you've got remember as always
someone gets an annoying new piece of kit and yes and then wants to show
everybody that annoying new piece of kit and what happens to be a fan that we
don't need no i think we're doing this a little bit
cooler yeah i think that's that's good i like
that well there's one more feature yeah okay
one more thing let's bring the camera in let's see this this feature here so
nothing better than a bit of technology here so we've got all these buttons
we're on we've got one two and four yeah one two
four so that's a timer okay i did have to hunt through the 27
different languages to find that in here so that timer is one two four
and that's one hour two hours and four hours
okay on the battery did we think it probably would do four hours is that the
sort of thing that we're seeing the battery this did confuse me in the
instructions because i've got here wind speed and it says lower medium and
high but it didn't actually mean wind speed
in instruction it actually means how long it will last
on the battery right okay yeah so not wind speed
not wind speed so ignore that in the instructions but i'm guessing on this
size battery and there is a bigger one which we'll have to explore as well look
at that yeah it's a fan blowing the pages of the
instructions over great drilling holes so it will last on the
lower speed for 730 minutes 730 minutes or 410 minutes
on the high speed okay so on that size battery if you go up to the bigger
battery it would last for 660 minutes on the bigger battery so that's
that's a good 10 hour 10 hour day okay that makes sense but clearly gary
wouldn't need it for 10 hours but there is a chance that maybe i needed
the battery that was for a drill perhaps in a drill
so how else can i power it it could power it does come with
a mains adapter does it it does come with the mains adapter as well okay
you're fumbling around there on the floor with it
okay so how long does the mains adapter last uh
well that lasts forever unless as long as he remains gary almost quite nice
in there he has always got power supply yeah okay so you can plug that one in so
yeah we're now on the main zoe so this can come out here i'm coming out there
it works on the electricity from the mains as well however is that
now yeah it would have been good if it would charge the battery at the same
time off the mains yeah okay yeah it doesn't
it doesn't okay we're cool with that so that's not a
problem at all so it's in the range of the 40 volt
range i take it we bought just the fan on its own
okay and then you're probably going to be using the battery that may be
associated with several batteries associated with some power tools that we
haven't got yeah that we haven't got it would probably be a luxury purchase
to buy the fan itself which i think is not that expensive but obviously the
battery and charger the battery and charger are significantly more than the
fan and yeah and what you can't do is use
the 40 volt battery on the coffee machine guys so it can't make more
coffee and it can't be can't make cool copies the coffee's in
three yeah that's what we're saying um yeah okay yeah i've got a funny
failure four people are here one doesn't get a cup of coffee and you don't get t
either so that's the maquita what we're going to call it so what's
but this is a world exclusive there is not so far found
a review of the 40 volt version so if anyone can go off and watch possibly one
of those other videos they'll be able to tell us if uh what the difference is
look from 22 volts okay good maths so as always you know we've just put it
below there because again i love bringing it in we're also on
instagram and we do a lot of a lot of stuff on there a lot of uh social stuff
a little bit maybe a little bit more humorous maybe over there as well as you
can see what we're having for breakfast tea
evening meals where we're drinking in the evening when we leave uh line side
studios uh normally in the late hours isn't it when
we get away from here so as always we're always keen to hear
your feedback is there any tools out there you'd like us to review
40 volt drill did i hear you say that sorry 40 volt drill
yes okay so maybe that would be nice that you could do the 40 volt drill in
the future so maybe we could do that is there any tools out there you really
love is there that gimmick tool that actually isn't a gimmick
that is a fantastic tool maybe you love the coffee maker maybe you love the fan
i think the fan's really good it's nice cool air blowing over us
unlike death valley which was the hottest place in the world a couple of
uh weeks ago this this unit was very close to secondly
and we didn't have a fan that week please leave those comments below and we
will as always try and get back to as many of those comments as we can
until next time we'll see you on the next video
