Extra cabin fan

[evergladesgator]

What type of extra fan y'all take for extra air flow in your cabin ? USB type charger ? What size ? Brand ? From Ebay ?

thanks

I just ordered from eBay the O2 Cool 5" fan. It takes 2 D batteries. I read some reviews on it and it seemed like it would be a powerful battery powered fan, but after I received it and tested it, I don't think it is going to work. (unless I have it inches away from my face)

I don't cruise until December 13, so I'll respond back here if I find another that is my powerful.

This one hasn't let me down yet:

I use this one too. I always buy a new fan for each cruise with the box still sealed. Never had a problem...

From the Target clearance section I got a USB 'desk' fan. It's not too powerful but does move the air around.

I have a 02Cool fan that runs on double A's and works just fine for just me.

I kept the original box, dust off the fan right before a cruise and put in the box. As far as they know, it's new. It goes in my carry-on.

If you take a fan on board, does it HAVE to be new/in box?

No, but since you're at the mercy of the port workers who can on a whim decide that your unboxed fan looks "unsafe", I prefer to go the conservative route and box it up to at least give the appearance that it's new (or at least not "unsafe"). ;)

I have read that others have had their fans taken from them. Is it because they were electric? Would battery operated be O.K.?

 

What is the guidelines for the fans in order for them to not be taken?

I use this. It has a magnetic base so it will stick to the cabin wall. It dosen't move a lot of air but it's enough to cool your face at night. I have a small usb battery pack I plug in to and it lasts several nights before I have to recharge. Frys electronics usually has them in stock.

I bring an electric desk fan...5 inches...lightweight...no dead batteries...(batteries are heavy and won't last running continuously for 6-7 nights)

I've never had a problem, but recent reports are that you have to take it in your carry-on.
