The portable, cordless, rechargable H2O 300 offers a long 6 hours run-time, day or night mode and larger area coverage than you'd think given its compact size.
Do your plants need a humidifier?
Humidity is about more than just spoiling your plants. Many of our favourite indoor houseplants come from naturally tropical habitats with high humidity all year-round.
The Amazon rainforest is home to many of the houseplants we keep in the hobby, where humidity ranges from mid-70's in the dry season to high-80's in the wet season.
Our heated and air conditioned homes can cause humidity-loving houseplants to suffer.
Heat pumps and air conditioning, DVS and HRV all strip moisture from the air. Especially in winter where humidity can drop down to the 30's inside a heated home.
Even we suffer when air gets that dry. Low humidity can cause dry skin and irritated mucous membranes, as well as a higher risk of colds and asthma.
TIP: I'd highly recommend getting your plants a hygrometer also along with your humidifier to keep an eye on humidity highs and lows.
Symptoms to watch out for
Commons signs to watch out for that your plants are asking for more humidity include:
- leaves with browning, moving inwards from leaf tips and margins,
- curling or cupping , especially inwards (a sign of leaves conserving water),
- wilting even when you're meeting their watering needs via their roots,
- buds that fail to develop or drop before they open (bud blast),
- flowers that shrivel soon after opening.
Long run-time
Up to 6 hours cordless run-time on single-outlet mode, or 2 hours on the high-output mode for a fast boost in humidity. Low-water auto shut-off for safety.
What's in the box?
The H2O 300 comes everything shown in the photos:
- Box with H2O 300 300ml humidifier,
- Rechargable battery (installed in top),
- 4 wicks, 2 installed 2 spare refills,
- USB C to USB A charging cord.
Small size, large area
Rated for areas 10m3 to 20m3. That's an area or room up 3m x 3m depending on ceiling height.
2 mist modes
Single Mode cycles 3 seconds on, shifting between the two outlets, for constant, medium output and a much longer run-time.
(up to 6 hours on a full charge with full water reservoir)
Dual Mode provides a high output, constant mist to very quickly boost humidity with both outlets running at the same time but with a shorter run time of 2 hours
(although I find mine routinely goes for 2 & 1/2 hours on a full charge with full reservoir)
Auto low-water shut-off
This model switches itself off automatically when the water level gets too low so you can leave it running without keeping an eye on it.
Even if water is left in the reservoir, tip out leftover water and store dry, then refill with fresh water before the next use.
(otherwise mineral salts from your water can build up over time and cause avoidable issues over time)
Day or Night Mode
A short press of the button at the back switches mist mode, from dual to single.
A long press turns on the night light, producing a soft, warm-white glow that lights up the water reservoir.
Quick charge
USB charging cord included (USB C to USB A).
Use a standard USB plug adaptor (not included) to charge, or plug straight into a power board with standard USB A outlet.
Works with standard USB A adaptor plugs (the type often used to charge phones, portable speakers and other rechargable appliances and devices)
Before first use
The unit will come with a short amount of charge BUT should still be charged for a minimum of 2 hours BEFORE first use.
A full charge from empty takes 3 hours depending on your adaptor, or you can charge until the charge indicator light on the back turns from red to green.
Size: 1.65cm tall x 8cm wide
Ideal size to nestle in among your plants, right on your plant shelves, measuring 16.5cm tall and 8cm wide.
