Turmventilator Levoit Windi Mini Pro mit Akku im Test: leise, mobil, stark

The Levoit Windi Mini Pro with built-in battery has been tested and praised for its quiet operation, portability, and powerful airflow. This compact tower fan measures just 34 centimeters in height and weighs only 1.2 kilograms, making it ideal for small spaces such as desks, bedrooms, terraces, or even camping setups. Unlike traditional desktop fans, which often feature visible rotors and basic power controls, the Windi Mini Pro offers five power levels, oscillation up to 90 degrees, and an integrated mood light. It also includes a built-in battery and dedicated charging station, allowing users up to 20 hours of runtime depending on the selected setting. The design of the Windi Mini Pro is notable for its slim cylindrical shape and minimal footprint, its base has a diameter of just 12.5 centimeters. This makes it significantly more space-efficient than conventional tower fans, such as the similarly well-regarded Meaco Sefte 6. The device features a large handle on top for easy carrying, enhancing its mobility. Its exterior is made of plastic but is styled with a combination of gray, anthracite, and bronze accents, giving it a sleek, modern appearance. A display is absent, though the device uses illuminated icons to indicate status during operation. The control panel includes a rubberized surface for tactile feedback, improving usability in low-light conditions. One of the standout features of the Windi Mini Pro is its charging system. The fan can simply be placed on its included charging stand, where it connects via multiple pins to charge its internal battery. While using a standard USB-C power adapter rated at 5 volts allows for limited functionality, only the first three power levels are available during charging, the manufacturer recommends a higher-voltage adapter (9 or 12 volts) for full performance. During testing, the fan’s runtime was confirmed to align with the manufacturer's claims, with approximately five hours of operation on the highest setting. This includes both oscillation and the dim, tea-lamp-like mood light, which activates in the final two hours of use. In addition to the battery-powered model, Levoit also offers the less expensive Windi Mini, which operates solely on mains power. This version lacks the built-in battery, charging station, night light, and IPX4 water resistance rating found in the Windi Mini Pro. The presence of these additional features in the Pro variant positions it as a more versatile option for users seeking flexibility in usage scenarios. Regarding performance, the Windi Mini Pro delivers a maximum airspeed of up to 7 meters per second, according to the manufacturer. This is achieved through four standard speed settings and an extra turbo mode. While this level of airflow is sufficient for cooling workspaces or bedside areas, it does not match the output of larger standing fans. In practical tests, the fan provides a noticeable breeze within a few meters, though its effectiveness diminishes over longer distances. The noise level of the Windi Mini Pro was measured at around 22 decibels on the lowest setting, placing it among the quietest fans available. This makes it particularly suitable for environments where noise reduction is essential, such as bedrooms or offices. As the fan’s power increases, so too does the audible output, but it remains relatively subdued compared to many other models.
