Wanna stay cool? Check out this portable neck fan!

[Baz]

Hey everyone......that time of year when we're trying to find ways to stay cooler.

A few weeks ago, I bought one of these neck fans.



It's a Jisulife brand and I got it off Amazon for $27 - but it's no longer on their site. They have other brands and I'm not sure how they compare to mine - just wanted to make sure you knew that.

I've been wearing it this evening for about 2 hours now - on the low setting - and it's making a big difference. I'm working inside trying to get some stuff re-organized, so I'm generating a bit of body heat in the process.

Nice that it is rechargeable too.

Anyway - thought it might be of interest.

Here's one on eBay for around $32 BIN....same one as mine. Looks like the seller has 2 of them available.

And here's one on Amazon for $38 - different brand than mine but same design basically.

Put your ice cubes in your cold water and sip/drink/guzzle as needed while enjoying the sweet breeze this neck fan will provide.

it does make sense if you are plenty hydrated you'll sweat in the neck and the evaporative effect of the wind will cool you down in a spot ideal for cooling.. your neck is a heat exchanger at that point.
looks daft tho, doubt anybody will score and chicks at the pub , wearing one of those
how much noise and any vibration??

I don't think it's that sort of device

Well, to be honest, it does kinda look like one...
Smooth design at both ends, soft colors, it looks like a lesbian double whammy...

There's 3 settings and as you go to the higher speed there's a little more sound - but nothing that (IMHO) is an issue.

Especially when you consider the trade off.

It gets hot here in Florida (needless to say) and for me this is just one more tool in my belt to pull out when appropriate.

Like I said, I wore it while working INSIDE my home last night and was pleasantly surprised at how well it worked. Hence my post and thread sharing the knowledge.

You can always read the reviews from others (which is SOP for me) and see what others are saying.
