Choosing between the D1 and D1 mini comes down to room size, power setup and how often you want to swap scents. D1 and D1 mini share the same 6.5 ml cartridge and waterless micro-mesh atomization, but differ in body, dock power and output control.
The D1 uses a 6-series aircraft aluminum body and sits on a 3500 mAh power base that powers the unit and can also give a phone an emergency charge. Power input is Type-C 5V/2.4A with pogo-pin output 5V at 0.75A, diffusing current about 300 mA and standby draw under 50 uA. The dock draws about 12 W when charging and the diffusing draw is about 1.5 W.
The D1 mini has an engineering plastic body with a one-second magnetic cartridge swap and a magnetic in-car mount. It uses the same 6.5 ml refillable cartridge as the D1 and the same waterless heat-free micro-mesh atomization. The D1 waterless diffuser is suited to a fixed station, while the D1 mini diffuser is built for portable use.
D1 offers low, medium and high (continuous) output modes. Oil use is estimated at 0.14 ml per hour on low intermittent and 0.87 ml per hour on medium, based on the brand's high-continuous benchmark of about 4.3 ml per hour. At those rates, one full 6.5 ml cartridge is estimated to last about 46.5 hours on low, which is roughly two days, about 7.5 hours on medium and about 1.5 hours on high continuous.
D1 mini runs three modes. Mode 1 provides continuous output. Mode 2 mists for 15 seconds, then pauses for 2 minutes. Mode 3 wakes on vibration, mists for 5 seconds, then pauses for 2 minutes; it sleeps after 10 minutes without further activity. Both models use micro-porous vibrating mesh atomization and the refillable cartridges are interchangeable between them.
Coverage and oil choice change how the scent holds in a space. The following guide pairs room size with setting and oil type.
The D1 is made from FVMQ, PP, AL6063 and COC; the D1 mini from FVMQ, PP and COC, with a plastic body and no aluminum. The D1 operates from 5 to 40 degrees Celsius; the D1 mini operates from -10 to 80 degrees Celsius. Both operate at 10 to 80 percent RH and are rated IPX1. Hardware is rated for use at 2000 m altitude and below in non-tropical climates.
D1 is dock powered, with adjustable output and aluminum construction. D1 mini is portable with magnetic mount and motion sensing for car use. Both accept the same cartridge and run waterless heat-free atomization. Checking the cartridge after about five refills, and replacing it if the mist has weakened, helps keep output consistent.
Pure botanical essential oils vary in composition and in how quickly their aromas disperse and fade. They suit close-range use in small and mid-sized rooms such as a bedroom, study, car or reading corner. The botanical essential oils suit smaller spaces and close-range use.
The designer fragrance oil range includes six scents in 100 ml bottles. Orange Blossom, Sweetheart of Blooming Flowers and Eastern Elegant House are built on Givaudan fragrance materials. They hold longer, stay consistent between batches and support larger rooms and hospitality use. The fragrance oils suit larger spaces where a lasting scent is preferred. One device runs both.
Yes. The D1 mini has a magnetic in-car mount and mode 3 motion sensing that wakes on vibration, mists for 5 seconds, then pauses for 2 minutes. It sleeps after 10 minutes without further activity. It uses the same 6.5 ml cartridge as the D1 and runs waterless micro-mesh atomization.
On the D1 low intermittent setting consumption is estimated at about 0.14 ml per hour, so a full 6.5 ml cartridge is estimated to last about 46.5 hours, roughly two days of intermittent operation. Actual runtime varies with setting, room conditions and oil viscosity.
Yes. Both D1 and D1 mini use the same 6.5 ml refillable cartridge with a magnetic swap. The cartridge and mesh are consumables; normal wear and verified misuse are assessed separately from product-quality concerns. Check the warranty terms for your order and purchase channel.
The measured maximum coverage for D1 running high continuous output with fragrance oil is about 380 square meters, about 4,090 sq ft. Actual coverage varies with ceiling height, ventilation, partitions and open windows.
The D1 charging dock has a 3500 mAh battery and powers the unit via pogo-pin 5V at 0.75A. Power input is Type-C 5V/2.4A, diffusing current about 300 mA and standby draw under 50 uA.
