Keep Cool with the Honeywell Turbo on the Go! Portable Fan + Giveaway
So. How’s the weather where you live? It’s pretty miserable here. I’m not really sure the last time the daily high was below 90°, but I know it wasn’t recent. And the humidity – ugh, don’t even get me started.
I should also mention that I’m incredibly hot-natured, and it doesn’t take much at all to get me out of my comfort zone. I’ve often thought how nice it would be to have a small portable fan to keep on hand, so I was super excited to get Honeywell’s new Turbo on the Go! Portable Fan.
Most portable fans I’ve found in the past have been flimsy and looked more like a little airplane with a propeller than a functional fan. Thankfully, the Turbo on the Go! is the real deal, and it can be used several different ways. In fact, it’s one of the most versatile fans I’ve ever seen. You can sit it, hang it, carry it, and fold it up to pack it! It’s also incredibly quiet, and you can feel the breeze up to 3 feet away; it really packs a punch for such a little fan. And just how little is it? The dimensions are 4.74 x 2.28 x 6.44 inches.
This fan really is as portable as it gets. It’s small enough to easily pack into a purse (not to mention a suitcase or travel bag), and the weight is only half a pound. This means you can literally take it and use it anywhere, including on those end-of-summer road/labor day trips, beach trips, and camping trips.
A tip from me to you: if you get hot riding in the back seat of a car (does the air ever reach back there?), you can keep this little fan handy for a backup cooling option. For those of you who aren’t used to “overheating,” you may think that suggestion is a bit silly…but if you are prone to getting way too hot like me, you’ll understand! Another thought: this fan is great for hotels. If you’re sharing a room with a cold-natured person who can’t tolerate the air conditioner at your preferred temperature, it’s the perfect size to sit on your nightstand to keep you cool while you sleep.
As you might guess, this fan is battery powered, but that’s not your only option. You can use any standard electric cable/adapter to plug it into a wall, but the best part is the included USB cable. The Turbo on the Go! fan can actually be powered by plugging it into any USB port.
This part really pleases me, because I can have a little mini-fan sitting on my desk while I’m working, and I don’t have to worry about finding a nearby outlet.
As I mentioned earlier, the battery power means you can also take this fan to the great outdoors. Since the stand doubles as a handle, you can easily hang this when there’s no stable surface for sitting.
I’ve been using the Honeywell Turbo on the Go! fan quite frequently, and I’ve actually made use of all its functions. I really think you’ll like it as much as I do! If you’re ready to beat this late summer heat, you can learn more and purchase one for yourself at Best Buy or HoneywellStore.com.

This come in use at work. It gets so muggy and stuffy this looks like it could help me with that.
This fan will be perfect for my son’s room. He keeps the AC so low at night that I freeze, but this way, he can turn it on in his room to keep his electronics cooler and sleep cooler. I will save on the electricity bill.

This would be perfect to have while I watch my grandsons play tennis at their practice lesson or their matches. It can get so hot sitting there and watching!

This would be a great replacement for our current bedroom fan that has been running since forever lol!!
This is nice to have on a hot day.
I didn’t read the review, I’m guessing they run on batteries? That would be ideal when the power is out. Or even for outdoor use.
