Rechargeable USB Fans from CDRKING

I show you what to look out for when buying a rechargeable USB fan. They look identical but there's a few differences!
CDRKING currently have two different USB fans for sale, one is 180 PHP and the other is 200 PHP.
P180 CDRKING BRANDED:
Brushless motor (more efficient, longer lasting)
18650 battery
Input: 0.5A
Low: 1.6W
Medium: 2.4W
High: 3.8W
Low quality charge cable with thin wires. Gets hot in operation.
P200 Snowflake branded:
Brush DC motor (less efficient)
18650 battery (15% more capacity than CDRKING branded)
Input: 0.5A
Low: 1.2W
Medium: 2.6W
High: 5.7W
Good enough quality charge cable.
You can remove the battery from the handyfan and charge it in an external 18650 battery charger. You can also have spare batteries or run the fans directly from a powerbank or USB power supply.

Hi im a big fan of yours i really enjoy your videos keep up the good work man!!! I hope theres more reviews from gadgets to come😊😊😊

[@dirtbaikar3578]

a detailed test.. thats good. now i will buy one from cd-r king. the brushless motor is good because i have other usb cables at home. i can use them and junk the included usb cable. thank you and more power to your program.. please do keep on making reviews

[@Julia5Z]

Thanks! This is very informative. It helped me decide which one to buy.

[@GadgetAddict]

+Yes I am Julia A awesome, I'm glad it helped :)

[@Liana8310]

Lovely growing fan collection 😊

[@GadgetAddict]

Haha I wont keep them all though. They're gifts :) I think they're a good bang for buck at just 200 Pesos.

[@fridaynightplans_]

Watching a few of your videos and you reviews are really informative. I learned a lot from it. Can you test what usb cables are the best? My ipod 6th gen charging cable got busted (the authentic one) I bought one from cellboy and it cost 150 pesos only. original iphone cable cost 1069 pesos but I saw something on Lazada, Pineng is also selling iphone cable wires. Hope you can review what is the best charging cables than can compete with the original ones.Thanks.

[@vey00]

Excellent! Such a detailed review for a cheap product. You could be a product tester or something.

[@karzygijose]

Now this gives me a idea of a 5V 1 amp brushless fan now

[@GadgetAddict]

Yep you could use it purely to get access to the motor :)

[@karzygijose]

Gadget Addict hehehehheheheheh over volt it to see how much abuse it can handle buahahahahahaha

[@tflops]

Bringing one like this outdoor and a solar charger makes a difference in camping. This is very cheap and convenient.

[@vrgl101]

i recommend buying good quality ones such as the LG, samsung. which you can find in almast any vapeshops

[@miknuelan]

Good Choice GA. Can you replace CDrKing motor with the one from CPU powersupply cooling fans?

[@richncolita6782]

good overview of these fans

[@GadgetAddict]

Thanks :) I'm a big fan of them!

[@graftandcorruption]

Super Like! Daming pesos :D Kudos!

[@imranurrahmanmiraz9131]

Nice work

[@Darelica13]

can i ask which one is better in terms of wind power? between the 200, 180 or the one from ace hardware?

[@clemdros2712]

i got one from ace hardware, after a week, it started to smell burnt circuit or something. i checked the board and a certain (tiny) component is burnt. the fan works perfectly fine though.

[@KrissBartlett]

cool I do have to get one of them its a pitty in northern Cebu no Cdr king only in Cebu city

[@supersaiyangoku3580]

I don`t recommend you buying external chargers unless its made from a good branded company. The generic ones, if you open it, looked at the circuit board, the main separation will most likely be dangerous. The transformer inside it will most likely be dangerous. Primary and Secondary must have good isolation.

[@deetherdavid7250]

You could change your power bank other power banks indicate how much are their output amps. My power bank has to output port output 1 gives 1 amp, output 2 gives 2.4 amps

[@webdev217]

Those micro usb connectors break all the time. I have had 3 of them break with the SM Fan you can get with Advantage Card. I soldered one back to life, but dang it gets old. I have one black one that has lasted 3 years and is still working great though.

[@GadgetAddict]

Really? I've not experienced that yet. Are those the original SM ones which were higher quality with a thick matt plastic or the newer lower quality one with the weak shiny plastic? SM/Ace started with a high quality model and then swapped it out for a cheaper one later :(

[@webdev217]

The good one yes with matt finish. The ones that broke were tan color.. this black one seem bullet proof. haha. I bought 4 Acacia brand fans (in pampanga) with Acacia branded 18650's in them rated at 2,000mah.. I just wanted the batteries, but was too impatient to wait for shipping .. they are surprisingly good. I have 4 of them in parallel now with a switch and a 3.7 - 5v board.. fan lasts forever now.

[@elmermanalastas3963]

Where did you buy the external ac charger for the batteries?

[@jedlaceda1094]

please check if my fan is better.. tnx Output power : 4.5W Charging time : 5-6 hours Usage time : 1-3 hours Battery capacity : 1200mAh Battery : Li-ion Charger input : 5V/1A Charger output : 5V/1A Input current : 0.5-1A

[@bhumikaagarwal708]

Aaj hi order pe aya h mera yh fan..mane 4 hrs se charging pe laga rakha h fan..bt tb bhi abhi tak unplug krne ke bad bhi fan battery se nai chal rha h...m kya kro?? Only charging pe lagane pr hi work kar rha h.... Product kharab ayah kya???

[@michaelflat2790]

I've got one, EFluky branded but it's quite generic.speed 2 and 3 are nearly identical on USB, but on battery, number 3 really blows a gale

[@bhumikaagarwal708]

Charging krte samay battery lagani h fan me??

[@bazrazin1]

green one is a brushless motor i think, i have one & has a brush motor.

[@martinpanganiban7569]

Pls do a setup tour and what stuff do u use :)

[@martinpanganiban7569]

pls lol

[@mikaelmananquil2534]

Gadget Addict is there a change in a prize of cdrking rechargeable fan the Green one or its still 180?

[@GadgetAddict]

I'm not sure. I've not heard of any price change so I would expect it to still be the same price.

[@designanthology12]

I have the iwata black model, needs to be permanently connected to power after about 3 months.

[@GadgetAddict]

Really? Mine is still going strong and I use it every day. You should contact them because it has a warranty.

[@SC8terRiderMotoVlogger]

What type of battery the rechargeable USB fan used it is a 2AA?

[@GadgetAddict]

+Ronilo Jasareno it's an 18650 lithium-ion 3.7V battery.

[@kevinb22]

soy de Argentina cuanto sale?

[@clarencehenryopinion9852]

Where did you buy the external battery charger? thanks Gadget Addict :)

[@GadgetAddict]

I think I bought it at Greenhills. I originally bought it to use for my 18650 torch/flashlight batteries :)

[@MrJamesdimaano1516]

hey gadget addict, whats your take on the batteries of these fans suddenly exploding while charging?

[@clemdros2712]

for peace of mind, i use a dedicated 18650 charger, and sanyo 2600mah batteries.

[@Voke_Roblox]

I think the green one is better because if were gonna pick the white one with better battery the green one is better because is brushless motor and if we want better battery we can always replace it

[@jarednormanyanosbusandtruc321]

I love CD-R King

[@GadgetAddict]

+PrinCass Jared TV Channels Official me too!

[@vey00]

I still remember how they started as a small shop selling CD-R and CD-RW in Gilmore, San Juan. I never imagined that the company will grow this big.

[@GadgetAddict]

***** Yeah they've really grown! It's so useful being able to walk into nearly any mall and buy cheap electronics. No need to order from China and wait so long. And a lot of the stuff they're selling is as good or bad quality as what other shops sell for a much higher price.

[@jedlaceda1094]

Can i remove the battery and plug it in the charger and use it? will it not break down or explode?

[@GadgetAddict]

You can do that. It's perfectly safe.

[@MZ72]

Ei, where do you get your usb watt meter? btw, can I use NiMH rechargeable battery instead? Thanks and thumbs up to your video!

[@GadgetAddict]

+MZ72 I got the watt meter from Amazon. There are some being sold locally on OLX but stock is limited. 18650 batteries have a voltage of 3.7V so I doubt your lower voltage NiMH batteries would work.

[@MZ72]

Oh, it's a 3.7v... I thought it run on 1.2v... my bad! Thanks man!

[@KLAGER28]

I have a question about cables what can you recommend that have good quality? For android phones micro usb

[@GadgetAddict]

Cables from Anker and Aukey are pretty good. Inside the Philippines, Cherry Mobile actually sell a premium 'fast charge' cable. I've tried it and it's actually really high quality. It's not cheap though.

[@KLAGER28]

i will look for it in lazada :D thanks again :)

[@KLAGER28]

john doe but i dont want go outside my house :/ hahaha

[@reavojosh6902]

I have one of those fans butt in CD-R king they have a newer version it's the smaller one

[@GadgetAddict]

Yeah I've seen it. It's very cute :)

[@cyrix19]

the fan from ace has a brushless motor... costs 200 pesos if you have an advantage card...

[@GadgetAddict]

Yeah, if you have the Advantage card, otherwise it's P400. When they first started selling the HandyFan, you could get it for P200 even without an advantage card. When I went to Ace Hardware in Ali Mall, they said they now only sell it for P200 if you have their specific Ace Hardware branded card. If you can get it for P200 then it's a good deal because it has good plastic, a high capacity battery and a brushless motor. But I wouldn't pay P400 for it.

[@TechInspected]

Bit fan obsessed, aren't we?

[@GadgetAddict]

Behind every great man is a great fan. Or something like that :P

[@krigerx.2247]

You mean he's a huge fan for fans xD

[@cristychumney157]

i don t think that this one is very good though.

[@karzygijose]

Man what else takes 18650 batteries So far it's Flashlights Power banks Portable fans

[@SushilSahuB]

Any info about the noise level... I'm planning to put inside my cabinet....

[@GadgetAddict]

The quietest is the iWata USB fan which I reviewed in another video. The loudest is the dual battery version from CDRKING. The ones in this video are somewhere in the middle.

[@SushilSahuB]

do you think it'll be good to put one of these in a cabinet... coz these types of fans are cheaper then the cabinet fans here in india... I'm just concerned about the noise on lowest setting.....?

[@GadgetAddict]

They're all pretty quiet on the low setting. If you don't need them to be portable, you can just use cheap 12v computer fans instead.

[@Darelica13]

how much power does it consume on max setting?

[@GadgetAddict]

CDRKING branded: Low: 1.6W, Medium: 2.4W, High: 3.8W. Snowflake branded: Low: 1.2W, Medium: 2.6W, High: 5.7W

[@Darelica13]

+Gadget Addict thanks for the quick reply. Great Videos as always ^_^

[@GadgetAddict]

Daryl Sevilla Thanks! :)

[@rbmanlangit]

where do you buy those 18650 batteries here in philippines?

[@GadgetAddict]

You can buy them from cdrking, olx and Lazada :)

[@oddballaklyama4395]

where can you buy those 18650 batteries and how much?

[@geowinston1274]

Shopee or lazada

[@geowinston1274]

3 years ago?

[@tanhockjun]

I got some of these fan before my first 2 of those the PCB burned,first 1 burned during charging 2nd 1 burned during I am changing fan speed... but I buy new ones again because I like brushless motor,i think they are more durable. I thought all of them using brushless motor?

[@GadgetAddict]

Where did you buy those ones from?

[@tanhockjun]

+Gadget Addict I bought them at mobile phone accessories shop at SGD$8 each,buy 2 will be $15. if I buy online will be cheaper but i don't like to wait,so I did not buy online but they are not too expensive anyways

[@GadgetAddict]

tan hock jun Same here, sometimes I'll pay a bit more so I can get my hands on it right away :P

[@tanhockjun]

+Gadget Addict nowadays weather is very hot,i remove the battery and use a phone charger,set it to highest fan speed and run it the whole night,i had using it for a few weeks...

[@jayl.2195]

We need those badly these days.

[@GadgetAddict]

Yeah they're really a life saver! Even if you're in a room with aircon, they can make you feel cooler much faster. So they're really quite useful.

[@vannessabathan1441]

Can i use higher capacity mah? I have iwata foldable fan with 18650 2000mah 3.7v li-ion battery. Im planning to buy higher capacity 18650 3.7v

[@GadgetAddict]

Yes, you can swap the batteries with higher capacity versions. I swapped mine to Sinowatt 3300mAh batteries which extended the run time to 15 hours on the lowest setting. Although I doubt they're genuine 3300 mAh batteries because in testing they appear to be closer to 2400 mAh.

[@Rfhdvcgf]

Mostly in eBay it doesn't come with the battery.

[@WilfredJohnVergara]

Hi! What is your setting on Rode Rec App on iOS?

[@GadgetAddict]

I'm using the SmartLav+ with iOS processing disabled, digital boost 0 and then I adjust the mic gain depending on my background noise. I then boost the volume in Final Cut Pro. The audio during the end segment was shot using the camera microphone and I made it sound even worse by making adjustments and not checking them before uploading this video.

[@WilfredJohnVergara]

Thanks!

[@JosephFabs]

do you know a store that sells mist portable fan? thanks ;)

[@GadgetAddict]

You can find them on iTruemart and Lazada. I think I've also seen the iWata mini mist fan being sold at some hardware stores in the mall.

[@JosephFabs]

+Gadget Addict thank u :)

[@shriyasoni8704]

Price?

[@markdanielbermudez4181]

The white one is much cheaper in other stores in phillipines it only cost 90-120 pesos

[@markdanielbermudez4181]

Im in phillipines btw

[@GadgetAddict]

CDRKING have since reduced their price to P160. Although all the fans look the same, there can be differences which account for the price. E.g. motor, battery capacity and quality of electronics inside. Just some things to consider aside from the price :)

[@engiemate9321]

Gadget Addict in unicity in philippines,it Cost P135 which it means cheap.

[@doggyydog2692]

The weird thing is I bought the same exact fan on the left in cdr king which costs 160 pesos

[@GadgetAddict]

+5 Seconds of Phan they may have reduced the price since I posted this video. Someone else also said they bought there's for P160 :)

[@red00511]

i got my prize! that u G.A! 😊😍

[@drrobotnikmeanbeanma]

Can this fan still come on while it's charging let me know ?

[@GadgetAddict]

+drrobotnikmeanbeanma yes it can. They recommend you don't use it while charging because some cheaper units have bad electronics that allowed the batteries to overheat. If you wanna be extra careful, remove the battery and run it directly from USB power. Personally I still use my fans even while they're charging.

[@drrobotnikmeanbeanma]

very cool

[@bollardspeaker2611]

I hope a brand made a 2 powered fan (battery and solar powered) and can be charge using the same MICRO USB port the same in the video but uploaded i currently trying to make one onthose fan that is selled on the street

[@GadgetAddict]

Most likely you could modify one of those 'solar powered light' kits to recharge your fan instead :)

[@bollardspeaker2611]

Gadget Addict i meant like the solar panel is soldered in the battery holder

[@bollardspeaker2611]

I will try to make a experiment on the one that is selled on the street because i want one on those cheap from the street bexause the one i brought it was making noises soo that's why when i bring it people told me that "hey could you please turn OFF your fan" soo that's why i will buy one on the street again because far as i know i like it as well i just test them and also i quite needing to stop buying things at CD R KING because some people already know where i'm gonna buy at CD R KING they somehow revealed my secret that i'm buying fans at CD R KING! I hope they don't share it

[@bollardspeaker2611]

Gadget Addict i have made a powerbank out of my old broken foldable fan it work but i didn't measure it yet on how long it charge my tablet and doesn't have switch but i use the cable for charging from the supplied cable from the iWata fan and i was really confused with your final answer in this video ?

[@GadgetAddict]

Are you getting 5V out?

[@riley5316]

I got one of this from sm mall it's almost identical to the ace hardware fan. You will need sm advantage avail this for 200 pesos.

[@GadgetAddict]

And some stores now seem to insist on having the Ace branded rewards card rather than the SM Advantage card. It was better when they were selling them at P200 without a card being required.

[@riley5316]

I also went to ace hardware but it was sold already then the employee of ace directed me to sm surplus.

[@johncarlo0597]

Where i can buy that ?

[@GadgetAddict]

If you're inside the Philippines you can buy them from any CDRKING store. If you're elsewhere, you can find them on eBay and Amazon. You'll also find them on similar sites like Lazada.

[@Apftw]

will these run off a solar panel and charge the battery?

[@angeliquejoyfabon4737]

how do you clean the fan

[@GadgetAddict]

+Angelique Joy Fabon tissue

[@angeliquejoyfabon4737]

ok thanks

[@domdom-hh9tx]

buy the ace hardware version for PHP 399.75 my classmate bought one and is stronger than the cheaper one my other classmate bought

[@GadgetAddict]

If you have an SM or Ace card, you can buy that fan for half the price. But I'm not sure if I'd recommend them anymore because the quality of the fans being sold by Ace isn't the same as before.

[@domdom-hh9tx]

my classmate bought it few weeks ago

[@amazinganimesonicatom2015]

Available all 4 colors

[@Fan_Guy_YT_2507]

The white fan the motor is quite overpowered thats why the motor brokes fast because of the overpowering

[@Fan_Guy_YT_2507]

@Asian Crocodile 🐊 why are you here

[@MrAllancord]

it's only 2$ on Divisoria. (168, 999 and divi malls)

[@leobelvargas69]

idol ,what kind of battery is that, where can i buy it?

[@GadgetAddict]

It's an 18650 battery. You can buy spares from cdrking, OLX, Shopee and Lazada. But be careful because there's so many fakes out there that say they're high capacity but actually they're not.

[@leobelvargas69]

[@GadgetAddict]

Gleam has the benefit of making it easy to collect entrants details but it has the downside of taking people outside of the KZbin eco-system. It also might lead to less interaction on the video itself. It's unlikely that I'd use a third party site for a giveaway.
