Does it need an electrician?

No. It screws into a standard light socket like a bulb. You only need a socket that can hold its weight.

How much air does the 20-inch size move?

More than small socket fans, enough for a bedroom, garage or shed. It is still weaker than a wired ceiling fan.

Can the fan and light run separately?

Yes. The remote switches the fan and the light independently, so you can use either alone.

What kind of socket does it fit?

It fits a standard medium screw-base light socket. Check that the socket is firmly mounted before hanging the fan.

Use it only where the socket is protected from rain. It is not built for exposed outdoor mounting.

Our take on the Tinyhomie 20 Inch Socket Fan Light Portable Ceiling Fan with Light and Remote

The Tinyhomie 20 Inch Socket Fan Light is a ceiling fan that screws into a standard light socket, so it needs no wiring or ceiling mount. The 20-inch blades are larger than most socket fans, which move more air, and the included remote controls both the fan and the built-in light. It suits renters, garages, sheds and rooms without a ceiling fixture. Against smaller socket fans it covers more area, but it is still a light-duty fan, not a replacement for a full ceiling fan.
