If you love that cooling breeze and the comforting hum of white noise, we’ve got good news for you: Just because you’re on the go doesn’t mean you have to forgo fresh air and a cooling breeze. Whether you’re in a hotel, renting a vacation house, camping (or glamping), these highly rated travel fans are just the right size to fit in your suitcase and make your stay more comfortable. Here are several of our favorite travel size fans.
Impressive performance
I’ve used a similar fan by OPOLAR – powered by USB – with metal blades for years when I traveled (and kept it on my work desk when the office seemed too stuffy), but this upgraded fan with plastic blades delivers an impressive burst of air while remaining whisper quiet. Powered by a 4.9-foot cable, it’s compatible with computers, laptops, power banks, wall chargers and other USB-enabled power supplies.
Super versatility
Set it on your desk. Hang it from your umbrella. Clip it onto a railing. The USB desk fan is truly versatile, making it an ideal choice for indoor or outdoor use. With three speeds and a six-blade fan, you’ll feel the breeze up to 9 feet away. The VersionTECH charges with USB, or you can pop in some batteries.
Mini but mighty
This travel fan may be small, but it delivers big; the battery lasts from 14 to 22 hours, depending on speed. Though it weighs in at a lightweight four ounces, this fan offers 3400 rpm of cooling power. When you’re ready to pack up, simply fold the fan into its built-in carrying case, hiding the blade for easy transport.
Looks like a radio
When O2COOL says this fan is hands free, they mean it. Simply hang this fan around your neck and enjoy your own personal cool spot from its innovative vertical air vent. Plus, the O2COOL Deluxe Necklace fan comes in several color choices, so you can express yourself through your cooling neckwear (there’s a sentence you probably never thought you’d read). A stylish lanyard is included.
Lightweight luxury
If you’re seeking more airflow with less noise, this mini travel fan may be the ideal choice. Choose from three speeds, offering up to 3200 rpm, for cool comfort, and from four color combinations to match your taste. Coming in at a svelte seven ounces, this small yet powerful fan features a rechargeable battery that lasts up to 13 hours. It also features a blue LED internal light and an even brighter side light, perfect if you’re camping or stuck in a power outage.
