Geek Aire 16" Portable Battery Operated Floor Fan

- 16 inch metal floor fan
- 24 hours on low, 3 hour charge
- IPX4, aluminum blades
Our take
The biggest, toughest fan here, built like a floor fan with its own battery.
Why it made the shortlist
The Geek Aire is a 16 inch metal high-velocity floor fan with aluminum blades, a large carrying handle and non-slip rubber feet. A rechargeable battery fully charges in about three hours and the listing gives up to 24 hours on the lowest speed, with an IPX4 water-resistant rating.
Compared with the 6 and 8 inch fans, it moves far more air from a 360 degree adjustable tilt. Against the DEWALT, it includes its own battery and charges from the wall.
It suits large tents, canopies and garages where a small fan does little. The metal build handles knocks on a job site.
What works
- Big 16 inch fan moves a lot of air
- Metal body and aluminum blades
- Battery included, 3 hour charge
- 360 degree adjustable tilt
Watch out for
- Large body is bulky to pack
- The catch
- At 16 inches it is bulky for a backpacking trip.
