Now there is on out there that actually does have a true cooling unit built in which is pretty cool but its a small wear on your neck unit.

The Glotru one from Japan : https://modern-g.com/products/wearcool

The Small one with a cooling unit : https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/portable-fan-ii

Although having worked in HV/AC I will believe it when I see it lol

still, at $50 vs the pair of $250 ones an american would need, i’d prolly try the amazon one first too 😜

if ya get one, lemme know how well it works for ya !

[Adjustable waist/Equipped with a large capacity battery of 5,000 mAh/Continuous use for up to 17 hours/3 levels of wind power adjustment/With a dedicated app that can be controlled from a smartphone/Type-C charging}

[Portable Waist Fan, 12000mAh Battery Operated Fan, 20 Hours Working Time, 2 Speeds, Strong Airflow Hands-free Rechargeable Belt Fan for Outdoor Works, Takeaway, Farm, Hiking, Camping, Travel, Black] for $49.99
