We’re still in the throes of summer heat, but even without those steamy days, you may be working in a spot that doesn’t have the best ventilation or traveling to a location without air conditioning.
For many Americans, it may seem shocking to not see AC units in every home, business or restaurant when traveling abroad. Instead of struggling to enjoy your vacation because you’re drenched in sweat, you can bring along a portable gadget that will give you cool air any time.
This is when a personal fan comes in handy, and we have the ideal recommendation. One powerful gadget that definitely does its job.
The GPX FlexFan is a rechargeable, personal fan with tripod style legs that allows you to cool off anywhere. It can plug into a PC, laptop, wall adaptor and more. The fan that comes only in black, has three speed settings, a battery life of up to 18 hours and is extremely quiet, so quiet, you may not even recognize it’s on. The adjustable tilt and flexible tripod legs make it easy to get cool air anywhere you are. It’s also incredibly easy to pack and can easily fit in your backpack.
The fan came in very handy on my last trip overseas where we were stuck on the tarmac for a bit waiting for a gate to open up, and the plane was getting a bit warm.
A fellow traveler even commented it would be great attached to a stroller to keep a little one cool.
