How many hours does the "cool air" blow (i.e. how long does the ice pack/water last)? Will it last a full 8 hours?

it only blows cool air as long as the water lasts, that depends on the weather. i would say 5 hours average. i also add extra ice from time to time because that only lasts about an hour in hot weather. the extra ice melts and adds water to the container. you can freeze blocks in old milk containers.

When filled, the water in the tank can last 8 hours (I've had it last longer somehow), but the ice pack will only last maybe 2 hours in warm water. So you will get 2 hours of cold water (extra cold air) and 6 hours of room temp water (cool air).

I did not time it but it seems to last about 4-5 hours. When the water level is low, it would beep to warn you and automatically shut down the cooling feature.

That depends on the ambient heat. I was in a large house in 110 degree heat, (about 120 in the house) with other fans running so the comparison may not be fair, for me it as less than 8 hours. (Tucson, AZ)

I think you mean 60 F? Not C? I don't think it will last for 24 hours without a refill. Barely lasted an 8 hour night on a full tank.

Doesn't cool as well as an ice pack you keep in the freezer or even ice cubes in a bag or ice pack...mostly because it just doesn't last long. I'd say you have no more than like 10-15 minutes before this cold pack is no longer cool enough to be effective.

I usually put ice cold water in at night and it stays pretty cold until morning. I'm not sure how long ice last depends on the area it's being kept. I use one at work as well and ice cold water is placed in it at 9am and last till I leave at 6pm still cold. Hope that helps

put ice packs in mine. it is cold 9 to 10 hours later. If you preheat the thermos it will go just about 24 hours

Ice packs are thin but dense, better than most other ice packs I've owned. Probably an hour or bit more to completely chill. Buy extras and rotate them. I have several!

It doesn't take long at all to cool. Once you wet it, it immediately starts cooling. Yes, it feels cold and the cold lasts for several hours or as long as it's wet. I used mine inside the house next to me for hotflashes and it was really cold. I haven't tried to use it outside yet though.

For me has lasted all night, I haven't let it run more that 8 hours, but it's lasted at least until then. The water was about 1/4 full after that time, so I'm assuming it can run close to 10 hours.

Hi there. It "says" 7 hours on a full charge. I have yet to see it last more than 3 or (tops) 4 - however, I do ride my bike in very cold weather.

Hi I am a flight attendant and use this cooler on the aircraft for 10-12hr with ice packs. For me it works very good. On very warm day I do have to put more ice in the cooler to keep thing cool.

it doesn't make it cold but it does cool it down. The ice melts just the same as it would sitting out. so about an hour or so depending on where you have it sitting.

I think it depends on the number of ice packs you use. Typically you should get about 5 to 8 hrs.

I have only used it for cold items. With an ice pack it stays cold for about 6 hours.

I sincerely doubt it. This product has been a huge dissappointment. I would estimate that this ice pack would stay frozen for 4-5 hours.

Thanks for shopping this item. Here are several comments on this product: The cooler is made to keep your drinks chilled well over 12 hours. Another user says: I'm not sure but I used it starting at 5pm on a very warm evening and there was still some ice in it the next morning. It kept the drinks really cool and everyone loved it and wanted one! :) Another user says: If you keep it open as pictured every couple hours you will need to add ice (drain out some water) if it is closed it lasted a lot longer....Hope this helps with your decision making....OOME

It gets cold very quickly, 20 minutes will do but it doesn't stay cold for very long. I've found the best time window is 2 hours in the freezer. I love this ice pack!
