Community Reviews
This reconditioned Ryobi 18V One Plus Whisper Series bucket top misting fan kit is built for portable cooling at sports, tournaments, and hot outdoor events. It includes the fan, hose adaptor, 1.5 amp hour battery, and charger, and it can run from a garden hose or a 5 gallon bucket. The pump and pivoting head help it throw a fine mist, and runtime can stretch to about 5 hours on a medium battery. A few practical notes stand out, including the need for a large enough jug opening, a possible control valve to avoid overwatering, and reports of occasional dead misting or loud motor issues on reconditioned units.
Common Questions (5)
It can connect directly to a standard garden hose, so the included bucket is optional. The fan also has a pump and can draw water from a 5-gallon bucket if you want a portable setup.
Yes, as long as the opening is wide enough for the intake tube and fan to sit on top securely. Milk-jug-sized openings fit, while soda-bottle openings may be too small.
It can work very well with cold water, including frozen half-gallon jugs or an insulated bottle of ice water inside the bucket. Adding a control valve can help prevent it from pulling too much water, which otherwise can turn the mist into more of a shower.
Factory blemished items are described as carrying the full new-product warranty, while reconditioned units are believed to have only a one-year warranty. This deal is for a reconditioned unit, not a factory blemish.
A medium 18V battery can last at least about 5 hours, and 5 gallons of water can last all day. That makes it practical for long outdoor events like tournaments and holiday gatherings.

I forget what size the tube is but it looks something like this. Just gotta go to HD or Lowe's and get the right size.

Factory Blemished is a new, never sold item with full manufacturer warranty.
It's an enclosed motor with no access for service, pushed into a plastic housing and the fan is friction pushed onto the post.
So maybe it's just the fact that it was sold frankly I've never seen a mark on a blemished one.

REFURBISHED/RECONDITIONED are not the same thing as "factory blemished" which I am quite aware of.
