> 3 dayBest fan I have ever bought. Has lasted a long time and will run on low all night after being charged. Life saver on hot nights in van.

> 3 dayWe recently moved 4 hrs from our previous location in early July, and I wasn’t sure what to do about keeping my goats and chickens comfortable during the drive. I researched several permanent options and none of them were feasible for both timing and cost. I wasn’t sure what to expect when I ordered battery powered fans, but these did not disappoint! I ordered two fans to allow for some cross flow of air. Not only did they stay on at the highest speed for well over 4 hours, but they also produce a nice breeze. I’ve been without power in their barns for the past two weeks and we use these during the hottest part of the day to help keep them cool and to reduce the flies. Once power is run to the barns, these fans will make perfect picnic and/or sporting event fans. I’m very impressed.

> 3 dayI purchased this for sleeping. I live very remote and lose electricity much too often. I need fan noise to sleep! Without it all I do is toss and turn. I honestly wish it made more noise, but that is actually a compliment to the fan. For the amount of air it moves I think it is very quiet! The build quality seems very nice and should easily hold up to getting knocked over or bumped around. Once I received it I charged it fully then turned it on high and started a timer. It seemed to keep the same high setting until the 4 hour mark. Now this was inside, so if it was outside with different conditions, maybe extreme heat, counter winds...perhaps it wont last quite as long. BUT...even when it slowed down at 4 hours, it seemed to run at about 50% for another 90 minutes. So Im guessing, at a 50% - 75% dial setting, it may run for 5 or 6 hours, maybe more. My reason for 4 stars and not 5 is the battery life. In this day and age, with battery technology, I would really like to see an extra battery or 2, or a different setup, and increase the run time to at least 6 - 8 hours on high, 10 - 12 on medium or low. It would not be hard to do. At $110 or $90 with a coupon, I think it should run longer. Even though I only purchased this for sleeping during power outages, I think this will definitely get use this summer for outdoor events. I would recommend this fan.

Greater than one weekI live in extreme South Texas where it gets quite hot and muggy! Recently we have had 3 severe storms that left thousands without power. That is no fun! So, I searched for a rechargeable battery fan that would have some power to it and that would actually put out some air! BINGO! This one is it! I quickly unpacked it so that I could plug it in and test the air power, to my surprise, it already had a partially charged battery! and YES! The fan lives up to the description in the Amazon site! The noise level is so low, you wont even know it is on. I am getting ready to buy another one, or two. Highly recommend!

> 3 dayThese fans lasted for two summers, I went to use one of them this fall, and it would not work. It ran for about a minute and a half and was on a full charge, but the fan just stopped and will no longer work. Now my second fan today did the same thing. This was pretty expensive to only last for two summers. I am contacting the company and will update.

> 3 dayGave this Fan to my Sister who reviewed it: I am totally impressed with this fan. I tested it this morning. It ran on High for 4 & 1/2 hours and took 2 hours to recharge fully back up. If you leave Amazon reviews I would give it a 5 star. Its amazing!!! Great air flow too.

> 3 dayId give it 6 stars if I could. Got the 12 metal one for sitting on the patio and camping in the heat--now Ive been using it indoors when I work out, come in from the heat, or my wife just turns the thermostat too high--not having to plug it in makes it very convenient. It blows a lot of air for one person from up to about 4 away; the cone is too focus to really hit multiple people unless they are very close together. On highest, moving that much air isnt going to be silent indoors, but its as quiet as any 12 fan Ive heard and not enough to be annoying. Battery life is excellent. Ive run it for at least 6 hours on the highest setting and still had over 20% charge. Build quality is excellent--its nearly entirely metal (including the grill and legs, not just the blade), who makes things out of metal anymore? Its even held together by Philips screws, not rivets or glue.

> 3 dayI have tried several battery operated fans for use outdoors. None of them satisfactory satisfied my needs. The fact is, there is no battery operated fan that can push the amount of air that a powerful plug in fan can. However, I did not want to have 100 ft extension cords on my lawn between my garage and the two outdoor kennels for my German Shepherd Dogs. This is because every week when the lawn would be cut, I would have to unplug and put away the power cord so it would not get cut, a tedious and unpleasant chore. Therefore I was looking for and needed was a battery operated outdoor fan that could push enough air to cool the dogs and which had good battery life. After a lot of research and based on reviews, I bought two of these, the 12 inch blade model. Of all the fans I have tried, and I have tried several, these are the best. They are well made and very quiet, although this was not an issue since I only plan to use these outdoors. They are easy to carry from my garage where I charge them to my backyard where the kennels are, a distance of 150 feet.. The two things I really was looking for was battery life and air flow. The kennels are 10 ft by 10 ft with a bed in the middle perhaps 4 feet from the bars. With the battery on high and no wind, the breeze the fans create reaches the dog bed. If there is wind, it does not and the dogs have to curl up right next to the fan. I do not place the fans inside the kennels for safety sake, although that might be okay because the fans have a good grill. How long does the battery run on high---five hours max. I have no idea how long it would run on half power because it simply does not push enough air on anything less than high. Probably the 16 inch blade model would push a lot more, but it was also $55 dollars more than the 12 inch. I reiterate, this is the best of the outdoor fans I have used to date. But battery life of 5 hours is not enough. I need a fan that can run for 6-8 hours. And air flow could be strong but satisfactory I guess. Now, if you plan to use the fan indoors, and I did test it just to see how it was, this fan is terrific. Quiet and it can push a breeze across at 12 ft by 12 ft room.

> 3 dayI give 5 stars not only for the product but also for the customer service, the first one I bought did not work well, the battery does not hold a charge to make the fan work without being plugged in, by the time I called amazon to replace it it was already too late and had to call the company directly, I explained what happened to the customer service person, and she tried to solve it right away, I received a new geek fan that works properly, I recommend it, the batteries are kept for a long time time you can use it and turn it off and on again, and the fan keeps the batterie charged, it is easy to recharge just plug it in until it is 100% charged again; the air is not weak and the size of the fan is enough to keep you or the area cool, I have a gazebo and it is super practical to use it there.
