Forgive me for my ignorance. What is the difference between a Diffuser and a Vaporizer? I am looking to relieg cold &amp; flu symptoms

They would both work but you may be better served to get a vivks. Apotizer as that will keep the air wet rather than diffusing essential oils into the air. Feel better soon ; )

Yes, they are the same. I use them both. Both use the same diffuser and have the same properties and you get the same results.

I don't know anything about vaporizers. I am non smoker. but if it uses 18650 then this will work

The diffuser works wonderful. I love mine. The vapor does come out through the top but I don't believe it pumps air into the vase. Not sure about that. It works wonderful during cold, warm, hot weather. Just to make sure this is clear this isn't a nebulizer is a diffuser.

We would suggest you purchasing a larger one from other vendor. Find a diffuser that can disperse mist in the rate of 40 ml/hr or more (you may still need two). This mist disperse rate of this SmileyDaisy model is at 20 ml/hr on average . However, keep in mind, most, if not all, models of the ultrasonic diffusers in the market work pretty much the same. The aroma would come out in the first hour. After that it's dispersing water (very little aroma, it functions more like a humidifier). This is because generally, the oil is lighter than water. Besides, the larger the mist disperse rate, the louder the engine. We would suggest you purchasing a larger one from other vendor.

I doubt it. Diffuser use essential oils, like doTERRA. This oil is not an essential oil. I'm interested in how others respond.

Hi...it's been a while since I ordered this product, however Im pretty positive you can use the DAP diffuser. Prob best to confirm with the company directly. So sorry couldn't be more help!

I made the same mistake!! A PEN NOT A VAPORIZER. But it came up in 6 different searches for vaporizers.

Not really sure, it does not put off any heat with the vapor but it is a cool mist. It takes several hours for the water to run out so you would probably need to compare the amount of water used per hour with a regular humidifier vs this. I do really like this one though, it's honestly my favorite diffuser because it holds a lot of water and has a high and low so you can adjust it. Also, just a little essential oil in this can be smelled in my entire house (my others only work well in a small room) so it puts off a great deal of "mist".

I have this model and my sister has a the Aroma Lite from doTERRA. The mist is very fine and there are two settings. I use it to diffuse my doTERRA oils. I like it very much. The only bummer is that it doesn't have a timer.

No. It isn't a vaporizer or humidifyer. It doesn't heat up or steam. Air comes out. You cant see it but you should be able to feel a light cool breeze coming out of the vents.

Same here. I bought this yesterday, filled with tap water as high as the MAX water line, put some salt before going to bed. It never actually vaporized, even though I added salt again. This morning I added even more salt, and I got neither steam nor sputtering.I think it's been about 4 big fat pinches of (Redmond Real Salt) salt so far... I'm afraid of adding more in case it damages the vaporizer.Ugh, I'm so tired, I keep waking up at night with a stuffed dry bloody nose.

I have an essential oil diffuser (a nebulizing diffuser) I use. I don't know if you are referring to reed diffusers though, or electric diffusers. I know you can make a mixture with essential oils that you can use with reed diffusers, I am just not sure of the recipe. It would be easy to google. Normally reed diffusers are used with the cheaper, dilluted, scented oils. You can also add a little water to a few drops of oil, put it into a tealight candle oil warmer and warm/diffuse the oils that way. The plant therapy site has a wonderful blog that can give you all sorts of tips on how to use their oils. I have an essential oil diffuser (a nebulizing diffuser) I use.

I can't get mine to work. I followed all instructions on how to clean and maintain my diffuser and it won't do anything. I only had mine for a week before it quit working. Big waste of money... i can't find a way to contact the company or customer service. I will never buy this brand again. Good luck fixing your problem, I hope its a easy fix maybe adjusting some of he settings

Cold mist. High frequency vibrations create a mist. This diffuser works much better than any other I've tried.

It is advertised on this very page as a diffuser and a humidifier. If you wanted a humidifier then I would send this one back & get a refund.

Don't open it, it's ready to use as is. The teeth marks you see on top grip the pad, you only have to slide the pad into the diffuser. I felt a cold coming in yesterday and put Eucalyptus on my pad and that diffuser worked wonders in seconds! Enjoy!
