The Dewalt job site cordless fan is one of the most popular fans on the market
A hard-working unit, this fan will run off the Dewalt battery system for hours, almost effortlessly - meaning it is a nice and quiet unit.
Obviously, its rugged design means it works just as well outdoors and indoors and it can take the bolts and jolts that are the usual hazard on work sites.
It's not so big that it can't be easily stored away when not in use and put it on the pack of your ute or pick up with no worries.
You can plug in the standard 120-volt cord or connect a Dewalt battery (20-volt maximum) to it. As the reviews below show, you will get plenty of 'air time' with this Dewalt fan.
Here's the specifications from Dewalt:
- Corded or cordless use (the extension cord will need to be bought separately)
- Multiple hanging arrangement options - freestanding, hang hooks, and standard wall mount
- Variable speed control - wide-range so you control the speed you want; Airflow - 500
- Testing to IP54 standards - meaning it has 'ingress protection' from dust, dirt, splashes of water etc.
You can even use it to help dry painted walls, drywall (plasterboard), and plaster mud.
But if you want to know if the Dewalt fan truly is worth your time and money, check out these reviews from actual users who have ponied up their cash on Amazon:
"Love this fan so far. The fan pivots back more than 90° as you may see from my picture. I was concerned the bigger flexvolt battery wouldn’t fit in it but it does with ease. I’m currently conducting a run till dead test to see how long it will run at high-speed with Dewalt’s strongest battery the flex volt 9.0 AH battery. Seems pretty well-made, however, I’m going to hang on to the box to carry it in just to protect it.
I hope the DeWALT comes out with a carrying case for this. The hooks pull out from the base allowing you to hang the fan on the job site, which is a nice touch. As many have already posted you can plug it in but not while you have a battery in the battery socket. To use AC will need an extension cord with a female plug on one end just as the DeWALT power pack inverter uses."
"I am very happy with this unit after day one. I placed a DCB203 20V Max 2.0AH Compact XR Li-Ion Battery Pack (The smallest they make) into the Fan, turned it on low at 10:45am. At 10:28 PM the unit is still running. On Low speed, you can not even hear the unit running. Will be running the unit on Medium speed this weekend, same battery."

So it will run all day!
"This thing is made STRONG. This last week at the market I was pulling it down and it slipped. It fell from about 6ft and hit concrete. Didn't even scratch it. I'm not saying drop it on purpose but I thought for sure it would have been damaged if work at all. And it turned in and worked perfectly! I love this fan!

It's tough and durable.
This is the 2nd fan I've bought. I love it! I use it for a weekly Farmers market tent. I hang it from the frame and it keeps my customers cool while they shop. My original purchase was for the fan, battery set and charger. A full charge battery will run this fan on high from 8:30am-2:00pm and still have over half charge. It creates a nice breeze. Made 100* market days much more bearable. Highly recommend this little workhorse."
It does the business required.
"I purchased this fan for the specific purpose of having some kind of cooling device available during a power outage. As such, I wanted to know exactly how much cooling time I would get from one battery. I'm using a 60-volt, 6.0 Ah "flex-volt" battery; however, my 20 volt, 4.0 Ah battery also (obviously) works.
I turned on the variable speed fan to half speed; it's VERY quiet. The design of these batteries is such that they don't slowly wear down--instead, they just quit when the voltage drops too much--so, I suppose it could quit at any moment. But, after twelve hours, the fan is still going strong, and the battery still has 2 of its 3 charge level lights on (3 lights would be a full charge). I have to tell you, I am damned impressed! Well done, Dewalt! It's nearly as good as the Dune novel's influence on Star Wars.
If that doesn't convince you, check out the unit on Amazon.
