Great design and uniform cooling!
This compact neck fan excels on almost all fronts - It is in fact quiet, comfortable, lightweight and has a more streamlined design that I prefer in a market otherwise filled with very odd options. It’s going to be a life-saver this summer. __ Airflow __ The best aspect of these is that the airflow feels so uniform, as if a ring of air is equally blown up your neck with a great cooling effect. No air is blown downward, but since air is pulled upward from ports near your body, it effectively cools your shoulders and upper back as well. There’s also a mode the deactivates the rear fans, but this undoes the uniform cooling effect a little. Leaving all four fans running is best for comfort. Since the fan rests on a soft silicone area at the rear, these two fans also help negate some of the body heat/potential battery dissipation that seems build up a little without them. With so much airflow near your ears, I was curious how these would interact with active noise cancelling (ANC) headphones and earbuds. In my testing, it caused no issues. I'm happy to report that I can listen without distortion or buffeting. __ Design & Comfort __ As mentioned above, these are much more cleanly designed than others being sold. They’re a little smaller - the right size, they’re quiet, light and really blast air (relatively quietly) on the highest setting. While they’re rated for only 2.5 hours of use on a single charge when on full blast, I can’t imagine ever needing such a high speed for that long, so battery life still seems fantastic. You’ll easily be able to get through the day on a reasonable setting, which can allow for up to 13 hours of use. Being able to fold them down makes them more handy for travel or trips. I’m not that worried about becoming uncomfortable with these on hot days, they seem perfect for my intended casual needs. If I ever need to boost their effect on the hottest of days, I’ll pair these with a moistened neck towel - effectively making a ‘portable AC’ of sorts. I’m also encouraged by Torras’s levels of electrical safety claimed by these, though I’m less excited for their V0 fire-resistant rating. While I wasn’t able to confirm, this rating almost always means fire-retardants are used on for within the plastics are being used. __ Summary __ These have a great design and feel. They’re a perfect size, lightweight and quiet. You’ll look normal wearing them - with a look that’s more like wearing headphones around your neck than some of the other more oddly designed products on the market. They collapse down a bit for travel and offer a great battery life. My only holdup is that they have a fire-resistance rating that suggests the use of fire-retardants in the plastics. Otherwise, they’re well built and feel good in the hand. I’m sure to be using them a lot this summer. *** The Good Stuff *** - Lightweight and quiet - Great design, more modern and cleanly designed than most on the market. - Comfortable, blows uniform air over your neck. - Stays in place, feels secure - Great battery life and power - 2.5 to 13 hours on a single charge, depending on speed/setting - Don’t interfere with ANC in headphones *** The Less Than Good Stuff *** - V0 fire-resistant rating suggests the use of flame retardants in the plastics used.

The Coolite does keep you cool!
I didn’t realize that I needed the Coolite neck fan until I received it. There are so many times, whether I’m cutting the lawn, working out, riding my bike or any number of activities that this little wonder has helped to make it more enjoyable by keeping me comfortable. With four fans that provide cooling to your neck area to disperse the heat, it makes a real difference in keeping you cool. There is one rocker control that has an up and down switch for the fan speed and the power too. There are four fan speeds that go from a low slow flow of air to a near jet stream of air and in between. Charging is through a USB-C plug. As for comfort while wearing the Coolite. It is shaped in a horseshoe and made of hard plastic, with soft flexible rubber material at the center of the horseshoe shape. There are two flexible arms as well. This flexibility allows you to spread the Coolite open a bit to put around your neck. Once around your neck you can close the flexible arms for a better fit while using. I have been using the Coolite while cutting the lawn, on long walks and biking and it works great. I have been getting about eight days of activities on the battery which is very good. Sometimes you don’t realize what you need until you get it and the Coolite is one of those products for sure. I would highly recommend the Coolite to those who are active and want an effective cooling option!

Fits big necks and works WELL! Powerful!
I’ve always seen these around but I’ve never really truly had the urge to try one out until now. As someone that has used cooling towels frequently in the past this seems like the next best or better thing and I can confidently say, it actually is. I was extremely surprised at the amount of air this thing can blow and how it does so to effectively cool you down. When you max it out it’s like sitting in front of a big box fan except obviously on your neck lol. No need to even use the highest setting (LOUD) as it works regardless very well. From unboxing the materials used don’t feel cheap. It includes a usb c to c cord for charging and is ready to rock right out of the box. This has a very slim folding design that I would associate akin to high end headphones with the same style folding making storage simple. The battery life I haven’t had any issue with and it is rated for over 8 hours with a 4000 mAh battery so I would expect good run times to come for years. The one thing to watch out for is men with long beards be sure to put this on in a way that is appropriate in holding your beard down as the first time I used it I accidentally had some hair in the fan. Though it didn’t pull it I could hear the sound and feel it hitting inside the device. Also on the topic of fitment I’m a big guy we’re talking 7ft 300 so I was also worried this would be too small but it fit fine for me. I also tried this on my wife and kids and everyone seemed very happy with fitment so this should not pose an issue if you have a big neck or small. As much as I never thought I would ever want or even need one of these I can confidently say after using this it will now be a staple to my workouts and even my cooking sessions I also can’t wait to wear it washing the car and cutting the lawn. The fact Torras make even stronger more powerful versions of these is crazy.
