Product Description

The conference room was stifling. The airplane was crowded and overheated. The cab's air conditioner was broken. But you stayed cool and fresh throughout, thanks to the FlyFan Mobile USB Fan. The Plug and Play FlyFan provides a steady stream of cool air wherever you are, and the flexible neck lets you direct the air wherever you want. You remain cool and the surrounding air is constantly refreshed. Plug and Play technology lets you convert a USB port on your laptop into a source of cool air. No batteries are required for use. The FlyFan uses less than five minutes per hour of notebook battery charge. Designed to make your hectic life easier (or at least a little cooler), the innovative features of the FlyFan ensure your comfort. Flexible gooseneck lets you position the FlyFan for airflow where you want it. Compact and feather-light, the FlyFan goes anywhere and fits easily inside your notebook case. Soft nylon blades are safe, and won't cause injury. Quiet motor won't disrupt you as you work.

5.0 out of 5 stars Feel your computer breathe!, July 21, 2002

By	Shelley Shay (Denton, TX **(God Bless the USA!!)**) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

This very cool gizmo will work with any self-powered USB connection (Mac or PC). Note that this will not work plugged into your keyboard (not enough power). It only works plugged into a laptop USB port, a powered USB port on your desktop model or a self-powered USB hub.

Blades are very thin, paper-like rubber, so you won't cut yourself with them or worry about bending the blades when storing it in your laptop carrying case/bag.

Gives a really nice breeze, but it won't make a 100-degree room feel like it's only 75 or anything. It's a fan, not an air conditioner... but if you're in an office or on a plane where the air is stuffy, this is a great personal fan to make conditions a little less stifling. The cord/neck is sturdy, yet flexible and can be placed in a number of varying contortions to suit your needs.

I like this thing.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great little fan!, July 29, 2003

By	superman2k3 "superman2k3" (On a sunny beach!) - See all my reviews

I like it a lot. Great for laptop and its got a flexible neck. Only issue might be the slight noise it creates. Haven't tested the battery drain yet. Recommended for laptop owners.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best one of all of these fans, October 22, 2007

By	S. Kemp "Computerlove87" (San Francisco, CA, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I really love this fan, it has saved my life countless times when sitting in class packed with people when I have my laptop out. I have tried some of the others that I have seen on Amazon, I tried the targus fan, and i have tried some of the other ones that say they come with a light also, but his one really takes the cake. I am ordering a second one right now because my first one broke, but don't get me wrong, it is a VERY well made product, but I don't think anything else could survive 6 months of daily use and being thrown around in my backpack, but this fan stood up to the test admirably before one of the blades finally being ripped off by the backpack zipper!!!
