Okay, so I finally caved and bought the JISULIFE handheld fan after seeing it everywhere on TikTok. First impression? This little blue gadget is STURDY. Like, 'I accidentally dropped it twice and it still works' sturdy.
The 1-100 speed adjustment is wild—I keep mine around 40 for daily use, but cranking it to 100 feels like standing in front of a helicopter (in the best way possible). Pro tip: Don't do this in quiet libraries.
Battery life is insane. I charged it once before a weekend camping trip and it survived two full days of intermittent use. The digital display is super helpful—no more guessing when it'll die on you.
Only gripe? The noise level. At higher speeds, it sounds like a tiny jet engine. My coworkers keep joking that I'm preparing for takeoff. But honestly? Worth it for how well it cools.
Bonus points for the wrist strap—I've clipped mine to my backpack and it's survived NYC subway crowds without getting lost. 9/10 would recommend (minus 1 point for the noise).
