Compact with its 4-inch blades and 6-inch frame, the KEYNICE USB Desk Fan is great for camping trips. It can also be used to augment air circulation in the car. Unlike the others on the list, this one has to be constantly plugged to a USB port to power on. It shouldn’t be a problem though as it only consumes 3.5 watts, which is not a big dent on power banks.
