If your city's anything like mine right now, you're probably suffering a little bit anytime you're outdoors in the heat. A heat index of 110 degrees Fahrenheit can make you sweat in a hurry, and there's not much you can do to turn down the sun. But if you're looking for any little tricks or solutions to stay cool and comfortable in this heat, a portable fan might offer some relief.
Right now, Amazon's selling a $30 JKBoom Portable Fan for $15, or 50% off, and the retailer has sold over 9,000 of them in the past month alone. It's versatile, with plenty of features, and can even function as a hands-free neck fan with the included lanyard or clip. One reviewer called it “a must-have for surviving the heat.”
JKBoom FS-09 Wearable Fan, $15 (was $30) at Amazon
This hands-free four-in-one fan works great on your desk, as a handheld cooling solution, around your neck with the included lanyard, or clipped onto your pocket or belt. Whether you just need a little air movement or enough power to fight these extreme heatwaves, this portable smart fan delivers four different settings. Its five-blade brushless motor can reach speeds up to 9,200 rotations per minute.
The JKBoom FS-09 also features a built-in LED flashlight, perfect for camping or emergency power outages, and an SOS mode for when you need to signal someone far away. The fan's built-in lithium battery is rechargeable, has an energy-saving smart chip, and offers five to 25 hours of continuous use. You can charge the fan with a USB Type-C cord, and it's got overcharge protection to prevent any damage in the event that you leave it plugged in too long.
“Who knew a fan clipped to your waist could be life-changing?” one shopper said. “This little turbo-fan is a total game changer for hot days. I can clip it to my belt or hang it around my neck, and it blasts cool air, with four speeds that are legit — that turbo mode especially is no joke. And the 25-hour battery life is a dream. It's lightweight, powerful, and surprisingly stylish for something clipped to your pants. The built-in LED light is also a plus for nighttime walks.”
Tired of pouring sweat out in this heat without any quick way to cool down? Suffer no longer. Save $15 when you snag the JKBoom Wearable Fan for 50% off at Amazon.
