Best for staying on The hook: quick products 12 volt DC cabin fan

Buy on Amazon

Driven by 12 volt power, it's perfect for taking with you in your rv, car, boat or anywhere else you have a 12 volt dc outlet and operates with ultra-low power consumption. It really pushes the air, is constructed well, looks great and yeah, you hear it. The sound is the rotating fan blade piece hitting the inside wall of the product while being powered.

The fan blades are centered and the fan does not wobble. It blows a lot of air on low that's for sure. It does move a lot of air, and is a lot more energy efficient at 12v than a similar ac fan would be running through a converter. This fan is flimsy and cheaply made.

Why We Like This:

Good and loud for those who need noise to sleep
Airflow is very strong for a 12v fan
Noise is not bad and moves so much wind

Best for use: Schumacher 12 volt DC cabin fan

Buy on Amazon

Next on the list, we've got yet another fan that manages to win our hearts. It's the schumacher 12 volt dc cabin fan and it's widely considered as one of the best convenient fan you can buy. A compact 12v travel fan is an essential item to bring along on your next road trip. The Schumacher 12v dc oscillating fan plugs into your vehicle’s 12v dc accessory outlet or cigarette lighter to increase air circulation and save strain on your vehicle’s air conditioning. It works well and is very efficient, making quite a good breeze for only 1 amp of current draw. It includes a replaceable fuse plus it is great for defogging, cooling, and air circulation on long trips.

The oscillating motion helps increase the air circulation in your vehicle and provides cool comfort for miles on the road. It has only one speed, and the fan blade is very out-of-balance, so vibrates a lot, and very loud. The back cools down really fast. It is a good deal for a small fan with lots of power.

Why We Like This:

Ideal for professional drivers and travelers
Made the cabin of chartered sailboat a much more comfortable place
Nice size and pushes a lot of air for the size
Great for defogging, cooling, and air circulation on long trips

Best fan: Hella 12 volt DC cabin fan

Buy on Amazon

Hella makes beautiful and great fan with classic and smartly choosen materials. The 6" hella turbo doesn't move as much air as a 14" Endless Breeze, but it moves plenty of air. It's compact, attractive and relatively quiet. The fan spins in the wrong direction and sucks air regardless of polarity. It's quiet enough to comfortably watch movies in the same area with.

The Caframo fan's switch is on the back of the motor, so you have to reach around the unguarded, spinning blades to get to it. They do wear out and relatively quick if you have them on all the time. It is easy to find a place to mount it.

Why We Like This:

Little noisy, and missing rear finger guard gives you
Vibrates a lot at high speed and is noisy
Easy to install, look nice when up
Much less than larger 12 v fans such as fan-tastic's endless breeze

Best ceiling fan: Hike Crew Vent fan

It features a variety of automatic features, so occupants can enjoy their small space without worrying about maintaining temperature, moisture, and other environmental factors. It creates a huge draw of air movement even when it's on the lowest speed. The LED lights operate only from the unit, while the temperature setting control can only be set from the remote.

Built-in rain detection protects your vehicle in harsh weather. This is great if your plugged into shore power or on solar, but if you're a weekend warrior and the RV sits in storage you'll want to make sure you disconnect the coach battery/batteries or you'll come back to dead batteries.
