Ya, it is snake oil, don't bother with it.

These threads ain't all bad, might save a Jeeper from wasting their money.

We have so much more fun stuff to waste money on!

Looks like a cooling fan from a computer tower, and a generic air filter. interesting idea, but i'd never put it on.

You'd be better off to get a power converter and hook up a hair dryer.
