The Shark ChillPill is a 3 in 1 personal fan. It has a bladeless 10 speed fan (airflow up to 17 mph), a dry touch evaporative mister (won‘t leave you soaked) and a cryotherapy inspired cooling plate (reduces skin temperature up to 16 degrees Fahrenheit). The device weighs 0.77 pounds and comes in 8 colors. Battery life is up to 11 hours on low speed and 1.5 hours at max power. The ChillPill can be worn as a wristlet or crossbody, clipped to a jacket or purse strap, twisted to rest on a tabletop, or clamped onto a stroller or workout machine. The price is 150 USD. Accessories (wristlet, crossbody strap, clamp, clip) are sold separately (10-40 USD). The CNET review gave the ChillPill a score of 9.5 out of 10, praising the cooling plate and mister but noting the high price and loud operation at higher speeds (74.6 dBA at speed 10). This review covers the key features, cooling plate performance, mister functionality, battery life, accessories and how it compares to the Dyson HushJet Mini Cool and JisuLife fans.

Cooling Plate Performance
The cooling plate is the standout feature. It has two modes: level 1 (best for indoor use) and level 2 (indoor and outdoor). The plate can reduce skin temperature by up to 16 degrees Fahrenheit (tested at 77 degrees Fahrenheit on the neck at highest setting). The reviewer also used it on level 1 under the eyes to reduce puffiness (not an intended use). The cooling plate is easy to clean with an alcohol wipe.
Dry Touch Mister
The mist pod uses dry touch evaporative misting. It leaves you feeling refreshed, not wet. It has two modes: constant (water lasts up to 5 minutes) and interval (water lasts up to 10 minutes). The water reservoir holds about 14 milliliters. The mister comes with three replacement moisture wicks (normally 5 USD for three). Wicks should be replaced monthly. Clean the reservoir with undiluted distilled white vinegar weekly.
Fan Performance And Noise Level
| Speed | Airflow | Noise Level (dBA) |
|---|---|---|
| Low | Not specified | Not noticeable |
| Speed 10 | Up to 17 mph | 74.6 dBA |
74.6 dBA is comparable to a vacuum cleaner or alarm clock (70 dBA). Noise at 85 dBA can lead to hearing loss after 8 hours of exposure. The reviewer found speed 10 too loud for quiet shared indoor spaces but fine for outdoor use.

|---|---|
| Low speed (fan only) | Up to 11 hours |
