Aromadd Scent Diffuser Starter Kit Rad-2 (Black, 200ML)

How does the smart radar detection actually work?

The built-in infrared sensors continuously monitor for human presence within a 13-foot radius. When people enter the detection zone, the system automatically increases fragrance intensity to accommodate the larger audience. When the space becomes empty or has fewer occupants, it reduces output to conserve oil whilst maintaining pleasant ambient scenting. This intelligent adjustment happens seamlessly without any manual intervention required.

What makes cold air diffusion better than traditional water-based diffusers?

Cold air diffusion uses high-pressure atomisation to break essential oils into ultra-fine particles without heat or water. This preserves the complete molecular structure of the oils, delivering pure, undiluted fragrance that lasts longer. Water-based diffusers dilute oils and can alter their therapeutic properties, whilst heat-based systems can damage delicate aromatic compounds. The waterless technology also eliminates humidity concerns and bacterial growth risks.

Can I use my own essential oils instead of the included ones?

Yes, the diffuser works with pure essential oils and professional fragrance oils. However, avoid water-based or carrier oil blends as they can damage the atomisation system. The 200ml reservoir accommodates most standard essential oil bottles. For best results, use oils with viscosity similar to the included samples. Thicker oils may require dilution with appropriate carrier oils designed for nebulising diffusers.

How do I monitor oil levels without opening the unit?

The Aromadd app displays real-time oil levels through Bluetooth connectivity. The system continuously monitors reservoir contents and updates the app interface with accurate measurements. You'll receive notifications when oil levels drop below optimal thresholds, allowing planned refills without interrupting operation. This feature eliminates guesswork and prevents dry running that could damage the atomisation mechanism.

What power requirements does the diffuser have?

The unit requires a standard 5V power adapter connected via the included Type-C cable. It must remain plugged in during operation as it doesn't have battery backup. Importantly, only use standard 5V adapters - fast charging adapters can damage the internal electronics. The manufacturer includes the cable but not the adapter to reduce electronic waste, assuming most households have suitable USB adapters available.

How quiet is the operation during scent dispersion?

The diffuser operates with minimal noise, producing only brief, quiet sounds lasting a few seconds during each scent release cycle. The advanced atomisation system is designed for near-silent operation, making it suitable for bedrooms, offices and quiet spaces. The sound level is comparable to a whisper and won't disturb sleep, conversations, or work activities.

What's the difference between wall-mount and desktop placement?

Both installation methods provide identical performance and coverage. Wall-mounting saves surface space and creates a cleaner aesthetic, particularly in commercial settings. Desktop placement offers easier access for refilling and maintenance. The unit's compact 7.87 x 7.11 x 25.65cm dimensions work well in either configuration. Wall-mounting hardware is included and the sleek design complements modern interiors regardless of placement choice.

How long do the included essential oils typically last?

The five 10ml bottles provide approximately 2-3 months of regular use, depending on intensity settings and operating schedule. Smart Radar Mode extends oil life by reducing output when spaces are unoccupied. Standard Mode with continuous operation will consume oils faster. The app's scheduling features help optimise consumption by running the diffuser only during desired periods, significantly extending oil life whilst maintaining consistent scenting.
