Opolar F401

Top Pro

Compact design for everyday use

The fan is small, therefore it will not take up much space. It is a great choice for offices, desks and tables, and provides enough airflow to comfortably cool down anyone in close proximity to it. See More

Top Con

The fan only works when plugged in via USB cable

The fan can only be operated in 3.9 feet radius of the USB port (that is the length of the cable), as it does not work without it. See More

Top Pro

The noise is discreet and quiet

Opolar has a very low noise level, even when operated at the highest speed. The noise it creates is comparable to a soft hum. See More

Top Con

The fan does not offer a variety of speed settings

This desk fan only has one speed, which is not ideal in a case of extremely hot weather or room temperature. The fan will not provide alternative speed settings to suit everybody's needs. See More

Top Pro

Easy to adjust and operate

The fan has 360 degree rotation and can be adjusted to desired position for optimal airflow. See More

The fan can be used almost anywhere

The fan does not rely on the length of the USB cable, as it operates with a rechargeable battery. It can be taken and used almost anywhere - gym, camping, baby stroller, car, office, home, and other places. See More

Top Con

It only has one speed when operated via USB cable

When the fan is operating via USB cable, it only has one speed. This is not ideal for those who find the default speed too low, and require stronger air flow. See More

Voltage:5V

Rotation:360 degrees vertical and horizontal rotation

Top Pro

The fan has a long battery life

The fan works for 6 hours at a low speed, 4 hours at a medium speed, and 2.5 hours at the highest speed. This is enough for most occasions, trips, and other events, when a fan would be needed. Once it runs out of charge, it can be operated via USB cable, as long as you have a USB port handy. See More

Top Pro

The fan has two ways of operating it

The fan comes with a USB cable, which can be used in cases when the battery runs out of charge. See More
