When I first saw the BLBS USB rechargeable camping fan on Amazon, I was skeptical. That’s because I had tried a number of mini/personal fans in the past, none of which were worth it.
When I came across this one, the stars were aligned for me to try again, as it had been a few years since I bought a small fan. It was on sale on Amazon, and it had decent reviews. It had also been miserably hot where I had been staying, and my normal small fan was in bad need of some auxiliary help.
I have to say that I have been pleasantly surprised. The fan does exactly what I wanted it to, namely, keeping my head and neck cool while trying to sleep. There is so much to like about this little camping fan, I will save time and list it all below.
What I especially like about BLBS rechargeable camping fan
• It has three speeds: low, medium, and high.
• Depending on the speed, it will run 12 to 65 hours on a single charge. I have been running it on high all night, every night. It hasn’t run out of power yet!
• It takes about four hours to recharge the built-in 12000mAh battery, and it used less than 2% of my Jackery 1500 power station to do it.
• The powerful 3000RPM turbo motor produces a respectable wind for such a small fan, providing an instant breeze of up to three meters. It’s not enough for a room, but it is enough for a small van, car, or tent, or to help augment other cooling devices.
• You can opt to clip it onto almost any surface or hang it from the included hook that folds away when not in use. From there, it tilts to the exact angle and placement you want.
• Includes an LED lantern light with two brightness settings.
• It also has a USB-A port for charging cell phones, flashlights, and laptops. I have other options for this, but it’s nice to know it is there in an emergency.
What can be improved?
Most fans can use more power, of course. However, for its size and intended functions, this one does surprisingly well, so it is not really a flaw. I have thus far found nothing I can complain about with this product! I’m happy to have it for these hot summer nights!
Order it from Amazon for a great price here.

my wife loves hers
I have a similar one, without a light, and it is amazing. It hangs, it clips, it stands. It swivels. It tilts. It holds a long charge. The only thing it doesn’t do is oscillate and the dishes.
Love ours. Great when we need to cool off the bedroom in the evening but not run the A/C.
Thank you for the recommendation, Cheri! DW is usually too hot. This fan may be just the thing to cool her without freezing me. 😉 Have a great week and safe travels!
Cheri! Thank you for the recommendation!! We just got our order and love it already. I’m purchasing 2 more. We were looking for something to use when we sit outside and it’s a bit “buggy” and this fan will be perfect!!
I should mention that between 3 days ago and today (when I went to purchase two more), the price increased from 20 to 25 dollars.
I got 2 of these and they are great. It will run over 10 hours on high which blows my old fans away and it moves a lot of air! I just checked and the price is down to $21 again.
DW got us 3 of these. Great little fans and the magnetic bottom is an outstanding feature.
Happy trails, Cheri ✌️ 😎
