How Long Does a Home Diffuser Last?

There are two things people mean by this question: how long the diffuser runs on one charge, and how long a bottle of oil lasts. Here is how each works.

How long does the battery last?

The PurePod home diffuser is rechargeable by USB-C and runs for up to 70 hours on one charge. Because it is cordless, you can place it on a shelf or in a hallway and only plug it in when it needs charging.

How long does a bottle of oil last?

It depends on how you use it. These things make the biggest difference:

  • Intensity setting. The diffuser has three settings. A lower setting uses oil more slowly.
  • Room size. A small room needs less scent than an open-plan space.
  • Type of diffuser. A waterless diffuser uses pure oil rather than oil diluted in water, so the scent is stronger and you use oil faster than with a water-based model.
  • How often you run it. Running it for a few hours in the evening uses less than running it all day.

What is in the box?

Each diffuser comes with a USB-C cable, a how-to booklet, a spare 10ml bottle and spare straws. It has a 6 month warranty.

Tips to get more from your oil

  • Start on the lowest setting and only turn it up if you need to.
  • Run it when you are in the room rather than all day.
  • Keep it away from direct heat so the oil stays at its best.
