Q: Specs say that there is a automatic timer that you set to have the machine turn off at 60, 90, or 180 minutes. Is there a way that you can set it so that it can stay on the whole time you are sleeping and turn it off when you wake up?

A: Yes, you can turn it on and off as you please.

Q: Could this machine be used for outside traffic noise on a patio?

A: I've purchased 4 of these sound machines; 2 for a niece and nephew and one each for my son and me. Our apartment is on the bottom floor and, at night especially, I could hear every time the people upstairs went to the bathroom or their squeeky bed and it would disturb my sleep. This tunes all that out. My niece uses it to tune out the busy street noise from her apartment in LA so getting to your question, I would think it would work for patio noise too. Don't know if it's made for outdoors so I would bring in each night. It has an assortment of fan sounds. I didn't think I'd like it as i was gravitating to the rain, ocean sounds but I use this every night. Very pleased.

Q: Do you have to use the timer or can it run constantly

A: Yes, you can run it 24/7 if you wish..

Q: This device stops a neighbor that wants to listen to his neighbor in an apartment?

A: I would imagine so. This is the same kind of machine that are put in therapists offices so that conversations remain confidential. There are 10 different levels of white noise available to choose from (which is what is used at a therapist's office) and a volume level to set how loud you want it to be.

Q: How do you set the timer on the electro fan evo? How far should the fan be from the bed be? Does this device give headaches? Does this device increase blood pressure ?

A: There's only 2 options. It stays on until you turn it off or if you hit the bottom half of the on button it will shut down in an hour. It isn't a fan, it's a sound machine, so you can put it as close or as far away as you want. I've never gotten a headache from this sound machine. And it's very soothing. I wouldn't say it would increase blood pressure.

Q: does machine have rain sound?

A: No, white noise or fan.

Q: So what sounds does it make? Ocean? Rain? What?

A: Air/fan or white noise.

Q: Will this machine run all night if you want it to, or do you HAVE to set the timer?

A: It will run all night.

Better night's sleep, drowning everything else out
I have always needed some sort of steady noise in the background to help me sleep. Typically I have a box fan, ceiling fan, or circular fan running in my bedroom, but when on the road it is not the most convenient thing to travel with. I have tried using apps on my phone which usually lead to hearing the loop sound or other interrupting sounds that end up disrupting my sleep. Nothing like a notification coming through when you can't mute the phone as you need the sound. Also, the AC in a hotel usually has a mind of its own, cutting on and off at random times. However, the LectroFan is small enough to pack away and provides a perfect, non-stop sound that sounds very realistic. So realistic that I could have sworn that there was air coming from the direction of the sound. It also has some weight to it that helps keep it in place on your nightstand. There are 20 different sounds that can help meet anyone's desires, as listed in the picture. These sounds range from the sound of leaving an old TV on to large industrial fan, like you're sleeping in a warehouse. After listening to all of them I almost wished they had a diesel generator sound to remind me of my times out in the field during training exercises. The buttons are far enough apart and simple enough that it is easy to make changes in a dark room. There is a 60 minute timer that can be increased per 60 minutes to 120 and 180 that I do not use, because when the sound stops, that is when I wake. The other thing that this device can be used for is drowning out noises while you are awake. When used in an office or waiting area, the volume can be increased to a point that you can barely hear yourself talk over it. Yet, at the right level and setting it can prevent anyone else in the area overhearing a conversation in the other room. However, set the volume too high and the sounds start to crackle. Though the design is simple it looks a bit dated. With the heptagon shape, very sharp edges, large grey buttons, and only available in white and black may limit where you want to put this. But, at the same time, it is really a type of device that is meant to be heard and not necessarily seen. Also, the power that the LectroFan uses is standard USB 0.5 amp, 1watt. So, if you happen to be short on plugs, or forgot an adapter, any powered USB port will essentially work. So, use that one outlet for your laptop and plug the LectoFan into the computer and drown out those distracting random sounds.

Fan/Whitenoise Machine with a great little speaker
LectroFan The unit is about the size of an Amazon puck, The box contents include the unit, a power cord that has one end that’s a usb so you can plug it into a docking station or a plugin that accepts usb. The unit will work for American or European 100-240 volts or 50/60 hz respectively. You can choose between 20 sounds (10 fan/10 white noise) The speaker is plenty loud and can be adjusted up/down at 1db increments. There is a timer that can be set from 60+ minutes. OBSERVATIONS: Unit feels sturdy, not a cheap light plastic feel. Rubber feet keep it in place. There are only 3 buttons on the device, Power, Volume and fan/white noise. After powering on unit and cycling through all sounds, the fan noises to me sound somewhat similar, they are different but a few sound the same just louder. The white noise is the same just different DB’s the higher pitch ones are almost ear piercing depending on the volume. Depending on the room size one could use this for privacy if placed near the door. It is supposed to make conversation almost unintelligible to others. I tested the unit all 10 white noise and concluded that from my voice was hard to hear up to 10 feet away in an open room. In a closed office or cubicle farm this may be better. However, this could also make cubicle farm people nearby complain about noise from machine. On the fan side (which I would use more) Fan noise are nice to drown out my teenagers phone conversations and tv noise when in bed. Of the 10 sounds available I like the bigger deeper sounding fans. I really liked the Oscillating fan, the noise gets louder then softer to make you think it is indeed oscillating. In conclusion: This is a nice little set up for those who could use semi private conversations or hide other unwanted noise. The speaker is loud and never distorts. There is not a screen to let you know what number of fan/white noise you are on. You have to cycle through to you hear a whoop to know you are back at the start. In the future it would be nice to have a small screen to see this. When you power down unit as long as power is supplied it will remember your settings. If un plugged it resets. Also in the future if they would add a line in to play music on the awesome speaker would be great. Also the addition of a usb to charge phones would make this a very nice multi use unit. This unit seems to be a very good quality device.

Small but nice!
Its a very compact and good looking device. It has a 60 min timer, in case you want to use it to just fall sleep. It has two settings for noises (fans and white noise= like the noise on a tv that hasn't captured signal from the air). I like using the fan noise more, as it relaxes me and I fall sleep within a few minutes. The white noises were too much for me, but YMMV. I like that it has several pitches for both of them, and you can also control the volume. Its very small, and fits perfectly on my night stand, next to my phone wireless charger!
