I bought this last Summer to use while clearing out my parents' estate. There are several out-buildings that need cleared, and not all of them have power. I've tried some of the smaller battery-powered fans, and they don't cut it. I decided to spend a little more for a bigger fan with even bigger claims.Right out of the box it charges quickly and easily. The battery lasts longer than I do on the job, and it moves an incredible amount of air. I was beyond impressed with how much air it moves. This fan has been an absolute lifesaver. Well worth the price I paid for it.

We have purchased a few of these fans and as long as the fan doesn’t have an issues then you should be set. The problem is If there is any issue with the fan, this company absolutely does not stand behind their ‘warranty’. One of our Geek Aire fans stopped charging. Seeing as how it is a ‘rechargeable’ fan, that was a big problem, My husband emailed the company about the issue and we waited for a response. After several weeks of waiting, I located the company’s phone number and contacted them that way. By that time, we were 2 days past the 1 year warranty. The representative had me send an email with the pertinent info. I received an odd response stating that since I stated that I purchased the fan in 2021 (😳?!?-no I didn’t) it was out of coverage. I immediately responded reiterating that I purchased it in 2023, NOT 2021. I received no response. I then attempted to call several more times over the course of the following week, but would get sent to a voice mail box that was too full to accept messages. I eventually was able to reach a representative again with whom I explained the issue. She said she could see that I actually purchased the fan in 2023, not 2021, but it was outside of the warranty. I again explained that we had contacted them within the 1 year warranty. They just hadn’t responded to us within that time period. She then asked what email we had written to and stated that they didn’t have access to that email. I pointed out that the email we used was the one listed on both the Geek Aire website and Facebook page for customer service. She then just started repeating over and over, ‘Sorry, it has already been declined’. I asked repeatedly to speak to a manager or someone else that could assist me if she wasn’t able to, but she just continued to say, ‘Sorry, it has been declined’. Then she hung up on me.

This fan is cool, and the best battery-powered one I’ve ever used (I have a few). I live off-grid so my power runs out by 2am every night and doesn’t come back on until 8am or later. But this thing charges itself during the day and just keeps on running all night, then recharges itself after the power comes back on usually 6-8 hours later. It keeps the bedroom breezy & cool all night long, isn’t too noisy, and the speed is super adjustable. It’s also lightweight and easy to carry because of the handle, so I often take it with me when I go to art shows/fairs as a way of keeping myself and my clients cool while making & selling artwork under my canopy. It also makes hanging out outdoors more comfortable because it gets so darn hot in the summer, but I just pick a spot in the shade, set this thing next to me, and I can keep cool for hours while reading, painting, etc., and not have to be stuck in-doors next to my swamp cooler. The breeze also helps keep flies off my person and my paintings. The battery lasts for many hours, especially if you keep it on a medium or low setting (rather than a high setting) and though I’ve had it for 2 years now, the battery seems just as good, and the fan is still working perfectly. It’s made of sturdy metal and has handled accidental falls/drops/kicks/etc like a champ.

I have tried several battery operated fans for use outdoors. None of them satisfactory satisfied my needs. The fact is, there is no battery operated fan that can push the amount of air that a powerful plug in fan can. However, I did not want to have 100 ft extension cords on my lawn between my garage and the two outdoor kennels for my German Shepherd Dogs. This is because every week when the lawn would be cut, I would have to unplug and put away the power cord so it would not get cut, a tedious and unpleasant chore.Therefore I was looking for and needed was a battery operated outdoor fan that could push enough air to cool the dogs and which had good battery life. After a lot of research and based on reviews, I bought two of these, the 12 inch blade model.Of all the fans I have tried, and I have tried several, these are the best. They are well made and very quiet, although this was not an issue since I only plan to use these outdoors. They are easy to carry from my garage where I charge them to my backyard where the kennels are, a distance of 150 feet..The two things I really was looking for was battery life and air flow. The kennels are 10 ft by 10 ft with a bed in the middle perhaps 4 feet from the bars. With the battery on high and no wind, the breeze the fans create reaches the dog bed. If there is wind, it does not and the dogs have to curl up right next to the fan. I do not place the fans inside the kennels for safety sake, although that might be okay because the fans have a good grill.How long does the battery run on high---five hours max. I have no idea how long it would run on half power because it simply does not push enough air on anything less than high.Probably the 16 inch blade model would push a lot more, but it was also $55 dollars more than the 12 inch. I reiterate, this is the best of the outdoor fans I have used to date. But battery life of 5 hours is not enough. I need a fan that can run for 6-8 hours. And air flow could be strong but satisfactory I guess.Now, if you plan to use the fan indoors, and I did test it just to see how it was, this fan is terrific. Quiet and it can push a breeze across at 12 ft by 12 ft room.

Before I actually rate this fan honestly, let's address some of the reviews- like the absolute brainiac Einstein of an electrical engineer who did a tear down and said the fan isn't 12,000mAh but really 2,000mAh, showing the battery pack with the label "2,000mAh". I wish I could respond to his review but Amazon doesn't allow that---- the 'battery' inside the fan isn't 2,000mAh, it's 6x 2,000mAh 18650 batteries run in series wrapped together. You know what 2,000 x 6 is? 12,000mAh. So don't listen to that review. Who cares if the battery is "floating" inside or whatever. The fan wasn't built by NASA or NOAA, it's a Chinese made fan with a battery attached.Now, this is where a buyer should pay attention. At the lowest setting, which barely creates enough of a breeze to dizzy a mosquito, it will last you quite some time. At the top power level it does kick up a nice gust. The thing is, I didn't buy this fan to plug it in and catch a nice breeze. My wife and I bought TWO of these fans because we live in Central Florida. We have air conditioning for the heat, but when we get slammed by hurricanes we have no power.This fan did a decent job when we got hit in 2020 and lost power, but at the highest setting it didn't last the night. And that's ok. It's rated at 12,000mAh and we had it turned all the way up. Now we have a son and he takes priority, so we bought a second one for us. Truthfully I wish it lasted longer. But I can't take off a star because I wish it was a 20kmAh or higher. I bought it knowing it's 12k.However, we have since purchased a massive battery bank - and I don't mean ones that charge your phone - I mean one that can charge your laptop, another laptop, and 3 phones as once. I'm no electrical engineer so idk what the wattage/voltage draw on this is but it did dent our battery pack by about 15% after a full 9 hours at 100%.If you're buying this for some outdoor event for a few hours, have at it. If you're buying it to run it on low in a portable setting, have at it. But if you're like me and my wife, buying multiple different sized fans from different manufacturers, specifically for a power outage then just understand it's actual capacity and capabilities.Again, I wish it lasted longer but you can't buy 6 eggs when the recipe calls for 12 and be mad at the grocery store. This fan is what it is, but don't expect some miraculous 15hr drain on high. I think we got 6.5hrs on high, tops, which is great when we're in muggy Florida with no power and the house surges to 87 degrees at night during a hurricane. But once it's dead, it's dead - which is why we got the massive power bank.5 stars. It's a 12 inch fan, it moves air well, it has a battery backup, and we got what we paid for. Period.
