The heat at night get worse daily, this has forced people without alternative energy to look for solution

Two months ago, while I was surfing the internet looking for cheap alternatives for people who cant afford inverters in this heat period, I came across a store on kaymu where different brands, types of rechargeable fan were sold.

The fans came with mouth-watering features for their prices, I checked online for experience from users to know if the fans were worth the price, but I couldn’t find any.

So I decided to take the risk, I went ahead to the market to give it a trial, the experiences so has been nothing short of awesomeness. I planned to buy all 3 fans the sake of review

The 3 categories of fans I want to review are
· Rechargeable Water Mist Fan
· Lontor CTL-CF030 16 Rechargeable Fan
· Havic Portable Rechargeable USB Fan


1 Rechargeable Water Mist Fan aka Water Fan
This fan is far superior and unique from other rechargeable fan I have known. It works like air-condition due to its ability to control the humidity of its environment.
When the weather gets too hot, an ordinary fan will to emit hot air normally. But this fan provides an air cooling effect through its automatic water atomization function. It cools the air by drawing water from the inbuilt 2.1ltrs water can and provide the much-needed humidity in the home. It is sleek and beautifully designed, providing more esthetics for the home. This is a great cooling appliance for home, store and lecture venues.

I didn’t buy this fan because the small size of it was out of stock. So I cant give review because I haven’t used it yet

Price
As of 2 months ago, it was sold for N17,000.



2 Lontor CTL-CF030 16 Rechargeable Fan

The Features
Some of the basic features and specification of the Lontor Rechargeable Fan includes –

3-speed control
16″ max height
Easy oscillation and height adjustment
Built-in LED night-light
AD/DC function (auto-switches)
Over-charge and over-discharge protection
Retailed with 2 piece 6v 4.5Ah rechargeable battery

The Review

3-speed control
The fan comes with 3 speed mode (low, medium and fast) to help regulate your desired temperature.

Battery Life
In all, the battery life is good as it will help keep your room cool and comfortable from the moment you turn off your generator until the morning.

Its expected that the more faster the fan, the faster the battery runs down.

Fast 3.5 hours
Medium 5 hours
Low 8 hours

LED Night-Light
The built-in LED night-light is awesome and works even when the battery can no longer power the fan. It can go for as long as four days without issues.
For students, this could add more juice to the lifespan of your reading lamps, saving you the stress of running now and then, looking for a place to charge your lamps.

Charging time
It takes long hours to full charge the battery. I cant give a correct figure, but I’d say it takes between 10-12hours for charging

Oscillatory Movement
The oscillatory movement is awesome; it covers every angle in a room

Pros
Excellent features and value for money
Build quality is okay
Battery duration is great
Addition of Night life

Cons
It takes longer hours to charge
Addiction of a USB port (power bank) would have been a kill

Price N8,000

With the current heat in Nigeria, I think everyone should have any of this affordable fan in their home.

Great review op!

That number2 is not good enough, can't imagine charging a gadget that will last average of 4hrs for 16hrs in NIGERIA, with "constant power supply"

Thanks bro.
You right, that is why I always let it run on low, so I can get 8 hours

What is the current price of the Lontor?

It should be around N10,000

I woke up in the middle of the night yesterday, drenched in my own sweat.
The only thing that was on my mind is, go and get rechargeable fan very fast!

So i searched for reviews because i already bought the Russel Hobbs standing water mist fan from Konga @32k earlier in the year, even though it is not rechargeable, I'm still not impressed with the performance.

The number 2 in your review caught my fancy, though it has to be a standing version of it. But the 10-12 hours charge period is a complete minus!
I hardly have up to 2 hrs of supply during the day, which is also irregular and i run my Gen from 6pm-12pm when i return from work, so i don't see how i can be recharging the fan after each use.

The water mist fan is a disappointment if its not reachable. The 10-12 hours of charging is really a great minus. Although I have a friend who said he uses solar for his fan. Will try and give a review on that soon

Any update on the latest portable affordable rechargeable fan to get ... 2021

And this month courtsey of demand and dollar,the price of the medium one is now #45,000.It pained meoo cos laziness made me to postpone buying it when they told me #25k as at Dec 2023 but I bought it anyway and for 2 days now been able to sleep at night.
Even at that price we were on queue at the shop.everybody holding on to one

We don't have light at all,so on the 1st day I slept with factory charged one. against their recommendations ;DIt blew from 10pm to 5:30am on the dot at 2nd speed setting.
It comes with a solar panel(AC current )which I used to charge it throughout yesterday.It went off at 3am.i guess solar current isn't ass strong as Direct current hence lesser work time.
Today I'm charging with DC and would monitor the hours it would stay.

Overall I have escaped the frightening heat. Damn!
