Neck fan advice

bonnielu · ‎03-11-2010

Looking for a neck fan. So many choices. Any advice from those who know or who own one would be appreciated. I want quality and one that is rechargeable. I usually buy on Amazon, but it gets really confusing trying to sort them out.

I was going to suggest the neck fans that I purchased for the family last year, but I found that the ones that I bought are sold out.

There's some really nice ones on Amazon--nicer than the ones that I bought. Our fans don't have the little holes all the way around. I think that I would choose a fan with the holes on the back of the neck, as well.

Our fans have a light on the end, but we rarely use that feature. I see that some of the fans have an led screen so that you know when the fan's power is about to run out. Ours don't have that, and that would be a nice feature so that you're not surprised out in the yard that your fan just went out.

Our fans last a long time on a charge--depending on what speed you use. I personally crank my neck fan to the max, and it lasts about an hour out in the yard. They are great to scare away insects.

Our neck fans take several hours to recharge, and we run ours until they quit.

Hope this helps.

I never leave home without one. I get so hot and stuffy at doctors offices, movie theaters, restaurants, etc.

I bought this one off Amazon that is rechargeable. Excuse the big font.

@bonnielu , I have the Jisulife brand that I bought from Amazon. Mine is rechargeable but not adjustable.

@GenXmuse , is yours silent? Mine is not loud but I can hear the fan enough that I don't think I could use it in movie theaters etc.

I just bought one for an upcoming cruise........normally we don't cruise until Nov but decided to do one earlier in the year.

Decided to go on the pricey side for one but haven't unboxed it. yet. TARGET gives you a 90 day return policy on this item. I also didn't want one with blades as it would catch in my shoulder length hair.

My husband doesn't hear it when he's seated next to me at the movies. We tend to go to movies when it's not crowded though,

I used it during Hamilton and Book of Mormon shows this year and was seated right next to a stranger and they didn't notice it. I did keep it on low since it was packed. I also used it on the plane.
I do get a lot of comments from people who want to get one when they see it and I explain what it is. Lots of waitresses and checkers especially.

You could always try it and send it back if you find it too loud.
