OK, it's summertime and I'm thinking of a 12 volt fan. So I'm off to Amazon to get an idea about what's good / what's not so good.

The reviews have to be taken with a grain of salt. Some items are worthless and get a single star. Other times someone will get a bad item and think that all items from the manufacturer are bad.

Sometimes someone will rave about how great something is. And I hate it. That's life.

But sometimes you'll get reviews from people that just leave you wondering "How the hell did they learn to turn on the computer?"

The fan isn't effective in keeping you cool during summer time cause it blows hot air. Doesn't make much of a difference.
