Car Diffusers - Digest Number 1562

[Guest guest]

Hello again Josh,

 

I guess when I said that the Caroma was not ideal that it sort of sounded like I

did not like it at all. That is not the message that I was trying to get

across. I said that the Caroma was the best diffuser that I have been able to

find for using in my car, but if anybody out there knows of a car diffuser that

works better than the Caroma, then I would love to hear about it. It just seems

to me that sometimes new products come out on the market and it takes some time

for people to try them out and then either start recommending them to others or

giving opinions on how they work, etc. So until I hear of a better alternative,

the Caroma is the " ideal " car diffuser for me.

 

As far as a nebulizing type diffuser working in a car, I don't think it would be

impossible but I personally have never seen one designed to work in a car. A

nebulizing diffuser normally has some type of air pump that blows the essential

oils into a glass (and usually rather fragile) nebulizer and it somehow turns

the essential oils into micro-droplets (like an ultra-fine mist) which then

scents the air. In a car I think it would be rather cumbersome and then there

would be the difficulty of keeping it stable while the vehicle is moving. In my

opinion a nebulizing type diffuser is wonderful and probably the most

therapeutic way of using essential oils for inhalation and since it does not

heat the oils you are not changing the properties of the essential oils by

heating them. There are probably many people on this list that could explain

nebulizing diffusers much better than I have here and I do apologize for

rambling on like this but I didn't want you to think that you were being

ignored.

 

I hope that I have not added to any confusion over car diffusers and if you

should discover a better alternative than the Caroma I really would like to hear

about it.

 

Good luck in your search.

Their products look beautiful... I'm just not sure I want to mess

around with pads, and also not interested in having to continually

buy disposable supplies.

 

Rosanne, what's not ideal about the caroma product?

 

Why wouldn't a nebulizer work in a car? (I don't know how they work, so:)
