FrSara Rechargeable Portable Neck Fan for $13
The FrSara portable neck fan features brushless motors that spin a total of four bladless fans (one in each earcup and two in the headband) at up to 7500rpm and keep your neck area cool. There are raised dimples that keep most of the headband from sitting directly on your neck, thus improving airflow and reducing sweat. The 4,200mAh rechargeable battery lasts about four to seven hours depending on which one of the three speed settings you set it at, and can be easily recharged with a USB Type-C cable. Finally, a small digital LCD displays your fan's current setting and battery level.
A portable neck fan has plenty of practical uses, especially if you're going somewhere hot and humid (like Disney World Orlando in the summer). For gamers, it makes a lot of sense because your room can get pretty toasty on a hot day, especially with your gaming console or PC working overtime and exhausting tons of hot air. Additionally, if you're like me and you get sweaty whenever you wear a gaming headset, a neck fan could be the perfect solution for that too. Keep in mind that neck fans work by facilitating evaporative cooling, which means you'll need to already be sweating for the fan to do its magic. That's not a limitation of these neck fans but really for any cooling device in general that involves moving air. Otherwise, it will just be warm summer air blowing over dry skin, which isn't as effective.
