    Seems to be just this one.

    Nothing special about the price and it's just a Chinese product being ordered from China by someone in Athlone and being resold at a higher price.

    Buy it on alibaba for 15 and then sell it on for 48.
    Great example of a typical Irish company

    Get it now for 2.5x the price so you can have it for camping this weekend or wait for 2 months when the season is over :rolleyes:

    It's 2 watts and no mention of how little air so little power can push.

    It does on amazon - 30 CFM - very little as one would suspect based on its size - enough for up to 10 sqM rooms, according to the description. And it's loud too at 30dB.

    Don't forget to add import duty and shipping (which is bloody expensive now). Then take 23% vat off the selling price. Add in some costs for running a business, storage etc.

    Shame on them for trying to make a living...

    I agree with you but you only take 18.7% off the price.

    100+23%=123
    23/123=18.7%
