Fan, Battery Operated Camping Floor Fan, Rechargeable Powered High Velocity Fan with Metal Blade, Portable Cordless Beach Fan Camping Accessories With for Camping Travel Hurricane, 12 Inch

This is probably the best purchase Ive ever made on Amazon. I purchased it and brought it with me to South Africa where I lived for 2 years with rationed electricity. The nights were brutally hot and this thing was a life saver. Every time the electricity went off, I was the only person getting sleep. After two years, of running nonstop and constantly having the batteries drained and recharged it still worked just as good as the day I bought it.

Watched a you tube video and this fan had great reviews so I purchased it. My husband loves it and it will be great for our camping trips. It does not get as loud as a normal box fan but it still works great. And love that it can be plugged in or just charge it up and go. Highly recommend this product.

Before I actually rate this fan honestly, lets address some of the reviews- like the absolute brainiac Einstein of an electrical engineer who did a tear down and said the fan isnt 12,000mAh but really 2,000mAh, showing the battery pack with the label 2,000mAh. I wish I could respond to his review but Amazon doesnt allow that---- the battery inside the fan isnt 2,000mAh, its 6x 2,000mAh 18650 batteries run in series wrapped together. You know what 2,000 x 6 is? 12,000mAh. So dont listen to that review. Who cares if the battery is floating inside or whatever. The fan wasnt built by NASA or NOAA, its a Chinese made fan with a battery attached. Now, this is where a buyer should pay attention. At the lowest setting, which barely creates enough of a breeze to dizzy a mosquito, it will last you quite some time. At the top power level it does kick up a nice gust. The thing is, I didnt buy this fan to plug it in and catch a nice breeze. My wife and I bought TWO of these fans because we live in Central Florida. We have air conditioning for the heat, but when we get slammed by hurricanes we have no power. This fan did a decent job when we got hit in 2020 and lost power, but at the highest setting it didnt last the night. And thats ok. Its rated at 12,000mAh and we had it turned all the way up. Now we have a son and he takes priority, so we bought a second one for us. Truthfully I wish it lasted longer. But I cant take off a star because I wish it was a 20kmAh or higher. I bought it knowing its 12k. However, we have since purchased a massive battery bank - and I dont mean ones that charge your phone - I mean one that can charge your laptop, another laptop, and 3 phones as once. Im no electrical engineer so idk what the wattage/voltage draw on this is but it did dent our battery pack by about 15% after a full 9 hours at 100%. If youre buying this for some outdoor event for a few hours, have at it. If youre buying it to run it on low in a portable setting, have at it. But if youre like me and my wife, buying multiple different sized fans from different manufacturers, specifically for a power outage then just understand its actual capacity and capabilities. Again, I wish it lasted longer but you cant buy 6 eggs when the recipe calls for 12 and be mad at the grocery store. This fan is what it is, but dont expect some miraculous 15hr drain on high. I think we got 6.5hrs on high, tops, which is great when were in muggy Florida with no power and the house surges to 87 degrees at night during a hurricane. But once its dead, its dead - which is why we got the massive power bank. 5 stars. Its a 12 inch fan, it moves air well, it has a battery backup, and we got what we paid for. Period.

I rec’d this yesterday and immediately read all the instructions since some users were having a few problems. Without turning it on, I plugged it in and it showed 60% battery. Fig. it would take abt. an hr. to FULLY charge the battery since it had more than 1/2 charge. It was fully charged after abt. an hr. (I didn’t time this, it’s purely an estimate.) I have taken pics to show the battery indicator when I rec’d it, when it’s fully charged (no lights are on), and when it’s running. I like that you have the choice of either using it plugged in OR on the battery. I will say that the directions tell you NOT to leave it plugged in to charge the battery longer than 24 hrs.! (I’m thinking mb some ppl left their fans plugged in while not being used and essentially ruined their rechargeable battery!) I’m planning on unplugging my fan if I’m not using electrically and then only charging for a few hrs. until the battery is full. I like its weight and portability. Plan on using it all the time! I think you can tell I’m already a big “fan” of this product.

My husband bought this cordless fan to use at an art show he attended this past weekend. He is very glad that he did and calls it, The best fan ever and the best purchase he has ever made for his art shows. (See a picture of the fan in his art booth while he was setting up for a show.) Even though we ordered it last minute, the fan arrived very quickly and in great condition. It was well packaged and easy to figure out how to use. He charged the fan as recommended for 4 hours before trying it out. After the first charge, he ran it on a medium-moderate speed for over 12 hours and it was still going strong. Since he was heading out the next morning to an out-of-town show, he stopped the fan and charged it up again as he wanted to make sure it would be fully charged for his show. For the two days of the show, he used it for 10-12+ hours per day on one charge. Because the weather was quite warm and humid, the fan worked well to keep him cool. Both days, it was still going strong at the end of that time. He likes the lights on the back that show the amount of charge left for the fan, and he really likes the multiple speed options. We thought the noise of the fan was fine and was not bothersome. Because the fan is small, it can easily be used in many spaces without being in the way. Many other artists asked where he had bought the fan and indicated that they wanted one too. He plans to use it again at future shows, when he is outside working on large pieces of artwork, etc. He highly recommends this fan and would definitely buy it again.

These are great fans, at least while they work (which isnt long). After two years my fan wouldnt take a charge. I have contacted the company, I have searched the internet and I cant obtain a replacement battery pack. Unless you have a battery spot welder and have the skills to make a new battery pack (six 18650s), you are out of luck, and an otherwise good fan goes to the landfill.

I have only used this fan a few times. Charged it the other day and it no longer works. Very disappointing!

Excellent for use during power outages in Florida where we need fans when the air conditioner is not working. This fan is powerful enough to provide relief from the heat and runs a long time on a full charge. My neighbor bought it first, and after seeing hers, I ordered one for myself. Very pleased!

Excellent fan so far. Bought it for camping in mainland Mexico where the power often goes out at night in some of the more remote areas. It’s been excellent so far and runs at top speed through the night and into the next day easily if fully charged. We just used it in a 5 star lodge when their transformer blew just before dark. Great addition for over landing and remote camping in warm weather. I just bought another so we could also put one in the tent if we desire.

This fan is wonderful for moving from room to room or even packing in the car to have in hotel rooms. It runs very long on a charge and is incredibly quiet.
