LectroFan Evo - White Noise Machine and Non-Looping Fan Sounds with Sleep Timer (White)

Product Information

As explained earlier, different noises have higher intensities at some frequencies and lower intensities at others.

Yogasleep launched the Dohm Nova in February 2022, adding new functions like a night light and timer option. The LectroFan Evo is a highly effective white noise machine if you need to block out external noise while you sleep, study, or work – for two key reasons. For instance, ASTI, maker of the Sound+Sleep and the LectroFan, was born when its founder noticed while on a trip to the beach that the sound of the ocean reminded him of the freeway noises outside his home (but more relaxing). I like ocean sounds a lot, but the ones on the EVO don’t sound very realistic, so I could do without them.In contrast, white noise, whose sound graph is a straight, horizontal line, won’t block the high-intensity low frequencies of a garbage truck until you ramp up the volume. With a more contoured shape and a ridged surface, it’s easier to twist and adjust (though it can still be a challenge if you have dexterity issues, in which case you’ll want to consider the LectroFan EVO or the Sound+Sleep, which use buttons). Many sound machines have a cheap feel to them, but the LectroFan Evo looks and feels solid, without being large or heavy. He set up a sound-level meter 18 inches away from our top contenders in a quiet room to measure each one’s decibel range. This takes some of the guesswork out of finding the best volume level and saves you from fiddling with the buttons once you’re in bed.

This is great if you share a bed or room with someone who doesn’t like white noise, or if you’re studying/working with others nearby. With 10 sound categories, including white noise, nature sounds, and other ambient non-looping recordings, the Sound+Sleep can mask noise while also helping you relax.She also tested the ASTI LectroFan Classic, the HoMedics Deep Sleep II, and the Sleep Easy Sound Conditioner.

Building on some of its previous models, the LectroFan EVO features 22 different non-looping sounds. Going one step further, if you listen to the right white noise setting on a loud volume setting through decent headphones, you’re pretty much guaranteed to create a personal cocoon. If you need even more sound from the LectroFan EVO, there is also an audio out that lets you connect it to a different speaker or system.And with different choices of color, like white, charcoal, and black, it’s a sleek device that will look good on a nightstand or office table.
