New Dock Pro bed cooling from Chilipad / Ooler creators

I love my Ooler so decided to get a Dock Pro. I decided to return it and wait until they fix the issues with it:

  1. Mine cooling unit makes a high pitch whining/whistle sound. If it wasn’t for this I would say it is not as loud as the Ooler.
  2. The wifi chipset is crap. My router is in the next room and this thing can’t stay connected.
  3. Programs just stop/start randomly. I think this is due to the network issues.
  4. Not sold on the non-sealed water reservoir, seems to go through water fast (like ever few days). This isn’t a deal breaker though.
  5. i am not convinced the temperature readings reflect the actual water temperature. This could be due to the flaky wifi though.

It’s a shame because the Dock Pro cooling is really great and the pad is good too. Much superior to the Ooler. However, I can’t sleep with the noise (might just be my unit) and the crappy wifi (all units).

I am going to go back to using my Ooler and wait for version 2 of the Dock Pro
