A breeze on you all day, with both hands free.
You get hot at the exact moment both hands are busy — carrying, lifting, pushing a stroller, holding a rail on a packed train. That is when a handheld fan goes back in the bag and stops cooling anything.
Clip this one to the waistband at the small of your back and the air runs straight up under your shirt, where the sweat actually starts. Your hands stay free, you stop thinking about it, and it is still running twenty minutes later when you walk through the door cool.
Cooling that walks with you
A desk fan cools a chair. This cools whoever is wearing it — down a street, across a car park, up a ladder, round a garden. It is 2.9 inches tall and weighs next to nothing, so it clips to a hip and you forget it is there until you notice you have stopped wiping your face.
Sealed and bladeless, which is why you can wear it
The impeller sits sealed inside the housing and pushes the air out through five slots in the side. Hair, fingers and bag contents all stay clear of the moving part, so it rides against your back in comfort and goes straight into a bag when you are done. That is also what makes it the fan you can clip to a stroller bar or a cot side on a hot afternoon.
Aim it once and forget it
The head turns a full 360 degrees inside the clip, so you point the air up your back, at the side of your neck or straight at your face without moving the clip itself. Three speeds cover the range from a background breeze you stop noticing to a hard blast on a platform in August.
The twenty minutes nobody plans for
Most of the day is air conditioned. The problem is the gaps — the walk to the station, the wait on the platform, the queue outside, the ten minutes between the car and the door. You arrive at the meeting already damp because there was nowhere to cool down in between. This clips on for those gaps, keeps you dry through them, and comes off again in a second.
