Handheld Mini Fan
This is one of WIRED editor Kat Merck’s top handheld fan picks. It’s small (and cheap) but mighty, with two blades that produce a strong breeze at 472 feet per minute and a quiet noise level (44 dB on low), and it’s lightweight at only 4 ounces. Plus, it’s basically a camping or outdoor adventure Swiss Army knife, doubling as a flashlight and portable power bank. At only $12, you’ll be happy you carried this during your next summer adventure.
