FOR THE PAST FEW YEARS, THE AIR CONDITIONER INDUSTRY HAD JUST 3 BIG COMPANIES THAT COULD SET ANY PRICES THEY WANTED AND KEPT RIPPING OFF CUSTOMERS.

 FOR THE PAST FEW YEARS, THE AIR CONDITIONER INDUSTRY HAD JUST 3 BIG COMPANIES THAT COULD SET ANY PRICES THEY WANTED AND KEPT RIPPING OFF CUSTOMERS.

A genius startup is turning this $135 billion dollar AC industry on its head.

The company called ChillWell Portable AC has figured out a way to offer a far superior product (even the biggest tech experts agree) at a fraction of the price.

With the national weather services reporting that it is going to be a SUPER HOT SUMMER, maybe one of the hottest for decades. Their new ChillWell Portable AC is quickly becoming the most successful device of 2023. 

What is it?


- Demonstration with an early prototype -

Meet the ChillWell Portable AC.

The ChillWell company was formed by a group of experienced air cooler engineers.

Their goal was to make a low cost and low maintenance AC unit that is suitable for any home, office.

With no installation costs, no maintenance costs and it being more energy efficient, the ChillWell Portable AC is an engineering masterpiece.

Compared to a traditional AC it's more efficient, smaller, portable - and it cools air much faster!

So, what can it actually do? Everything the traditional AC can - cool any room, regulate humidity, filter dust particles in the air, etc, etc, etc...

But what makes the ChillWell Portable AC special is it's price, ultra-compact design and portability (100% cord free).

In my opinion, this is the next generation of AC units.

How does it work?

It's really easy to set up. Fill the 550ml tank with tap water and press the start button.

Its size is small compared to a traditional AC, but because of its efficiency 1 full resevoir will last you the entire day.

The powerful rechargeable 2000mAh battery makes the ChillWell Portable AC 100% cordless. You can take it to any room you want, the office, bedroom, garage, kitchen... Get instant relief from the heat wherever you go.

You can charge the battery using any USB port - even your laptop could power it.

Set the device to 1 of 4 difference modes with the buttons on the top. 1. Cool, 2. Chill, 3. Freezing, 4. Turbo. You're able to cool any medium sized room in 30 secs.

BUT, it does more than just cool down the room. The ChillWell Portable AC also help filters your surrounding air, making it healthier and easier to breathe. Especially great for those with seasonal allergies!

No need to worry about noise either, the ChillWell Portable AC is extremely quiet and barely noticable. Perfect for in the bedroom during those warm summer nights.

What exactly can the ChillWell Portable AC do?

More than you think!

✅ Set your mode -Can create a cooling breeze or be switched to a regular fan. Whichever you like.

✅ Air quality control - It can act as a humidifier. If you’re suffering from dry air or stuffed sinuses, the ChillWell Portable AC can make you feel better.

✅ Fast and efficient - ChillWell Portable AC generates REALLY COOL AIR, FAST! In just 30 seconds, enjoy Rapid Cooling Mode as ChillWell Portable AC pumps out 2.7 m/s of cool, refreshing air.

✅ Different speeds -Four fan speeds. Set it to your optimum comfort level.

✅ Easy to use -Very easy to refill with water when it runs low. Big capacity 550ml tank.

✅ Lightweight -Compact and easy to carry. It comes with its own carry handle. Weighs less than 2 pounds unfilled.

✅ Extremely quiet - No loud, obnoxious fan noise to disrupt your concentration or sleep.

✅ Set your mood -Fascinating mood lighting integrated.

✅ Full control -Adjustable vents to direct cool air wherever you want it.

and there is even more!

Pollen, dust, and who knows what else is all floating around in the indoor air. And the indoor pollution only gets worse when you’re inside all the time. Even particles from your clothes and hair get into the air.

The ChillWell Portable AC has a Cooling Cartridge can help trap all these particles before they get blown on you.

One thing is for certain, once you try the ChillWell Portable AC, you'll never want to go back to life without it!

Some questions we've had

Q: Does ChillWell Portable AC require any installation?
No, it works directly out of the box and is really simple to use. You will have it cooling any room in less than 60 seconds.

Q: Do I need to buy my own batteries?
No, ChillWell Portable AC comes with a powerful rechargeable 2000mAh battery that will last you the entire day. The USB (type C) charging cable is also included.

Q: Is the ChillWell Portable AC safe to use when sleeping?
Absolutely yes. The device is extremely quiet, it's perfect for in the bedroom.

How Much Does It Cost?

Traditional AC units go for $300-800+, so you would expect the ChillWell Portable AC to be at least this...

But what if I told you that the ChillWell Portable AC retails for 178$, this is way below your expectations right!

HOWEVER, do you know what's better than paying the already good full 178$ price?

Their 55% promotional discount, where you can order yours for just 89$!

Click here to claim a discounted ChillWell Portable AC (if it's still available) >>

That's a small price to pay for a brand new, ultra-efficient portable AC keeping you cool this summer.

How Can It Be So Affordable?

Did you know big brands spend BILLIONS on advertising, physical stores, and boss bonuses? Can you guess who's paying for that? Yep, us the customers...

The ChillWell Portable AC spends nothing on any of this. They only sell online, don't advertise on TV and don't have greedy owners who demand ridiculous bonuses.

They prefer to let their devices and positive reviews do the talking for them!

Conclusion: Is it worth it?

100% Yes. With summer around the corner, the ChillWell Portable ACis the cheapest and best way to stay cool and comfortable.

The time to buy the ChillWell Portable AC is now before this discount runs out. It's already selling like crazy.

You'll quickly see why thousands of Americans have ordered theirs already!

The ChillWell Portable AC feels better than some $800 AC units.

The icing on the cake is the price. If it's still on promotion for under $200 - definitely, pick up before they go. 

In case you couldn't guess, I LOVED it! You won't find a better AC for a better price.

How Do I Get A Real ChillWell Portable AC?

No knockoffs please, the real thing is essential! Don’t get stuck with some ancient prototype!

Well we won't be taking Miles Rd to the Bay Area anytime soon.

Well we won't be taking Miles Rd to the Bay Area anytime soon.Dear Resident of San Antonio Valley and Vicinity,

 

We send this email to communicate the situation on Mines Road. As you are likely aware, Mines Road suffered significant storm damage resulting in drainage culvert washouts at Post Mile 26.5 and 27. The road is currently closed. The other options for travel to and from the Valley are Del Puerto Canyon Road to Patterson or over Mt. Hamilton Road to San Jose. We are aware that Del Puerto Canyon Rd has also been impacted by the recent storms but is currently open. We are also aware that access over Mt. Hamilton is difficult and long. However, until we can repair Mines Rd these are the only options. For additional information on County Road closures please go to https://countyroads.sccgov.org/roads-traffic-info/road-closures

Additional road information can be found at https://511.org/alerts/traffic

 

We have inspected the damages to Mines Road and have engaged a contractor to develop a plan for repair. We don’t currently have an estimate for when the road will reopen, but we will but will continue to keep you informed.

Mozilla: Final Version of Firefox 3 Will Ship in June

Mozilla officially announces when Firefox 3 will be out.The final release of Firefox 3 is due in June, the company said Wednesday during a roundtable discussion with a small group of tech bloggers.During the event, the key members of the Mozilla team, including CEO John Lilly, gave a quick overview of the product release schedule for the next version of the open source web browser.According to VP of engineering Mike Schroepfer, the first Release Candidate will ship in early May. The RC1 stage is the point at which most of the larger extension developers re-work their code to be fully compatible with Firefox 3. So if your favorite extension isn't yet working, you'll only have to wait another month or so.Right now, the latest Firefox 3 release is beta version 4. The Firefox 3 betas have about 700,000 users right now -- a small but dedicated chunk of Firefox's entire user base of 160 million people. The public release of Beta 5 will be out the first week of April (the nightly builds are available for testing now), and that will be the last beta release before Firefox enters the release candidate stage.Hopefully by June all of the FF Developers will update their Plug-ins to be compatible with FF 3.0 as of now left than have are.
