I purchased this last minute for a camping trip and wasn't expecting much for the price, but overall it surpassed my expectation. The fan only lasted two and a half nights (about 20 hours) on the high setting, but it lasted longer than the description said it would. The light was nice and bright and lit up my whole tent. On the low setting, the fan only created a faint breeze, but on the high setting I could feel the air on my face from 6-7 feet away. Having two hinges made it easy to point the fan and light in separate directions and overall I was happier with it than I thought I'd be.
This is the best camping fan I've found, the high setting is the most powerful I've felt, the light is great looking, there are so many ways to hang it and position it, and I like that it takes D batteries so I can just swap in new ones if I need. I got 2 of these for camping 3 nights and had them on high all night each night as well as using the light for a couple hours in the evening. The morning after the 3rd night one fan was dead and the second was running as fast as the slow setting usually does so I'd say these are good for 2.5 nights on high on 1 set of 2 D batteries each. I'm impressed!
I went camping this week and I just hate when it's sooooo darn hot in the tent and of course, there's no place to put a fan AND a light. This one worked perfectly. It hung by it's built in hook to the top of the tent, the light was just right and the fan was quiet and effective for a 2 person tent. Happy I bought it.
I have used it last two nights and now as we speak its awesome even on the sun side of a mountain in utah same set of batteries
bright light, fan work well it moved the air. It made enough noise for the city girl to sleep while out in the woods.

1* 18 Led Camping Light with Fan
I used this camping at the faster horses music festival and it was so nice to have!!! The light is great. Lite up my whole tent. The fan has two settings, low and high. I had it on high every night and it really makes a difference. I have a 3 person tent. It takes 6 D batteries and I used it all night for 4 nights and accidentally had it on the whole 3 hours home in my bag and the batteries are still working. I didn't use the light very long. Love the it just hooks easily. Had it hooked in the top of my tent above me. Love this fan.
I purchased this for my husband and son for their camping trip with the Cub Scouts. Fortunately, it was not a very hot weekend so the fan was sufficient but if it were much hotter, my husband said that he would have preferred to have a fan that was able to move more air. He liked that the fan also has the light and was able to hang from the top of the tent. The light was perfect for the small 4-person tent they were using.
The first fan we purchased arrived damaged (the part that holds the light was broken) so we returned it for a refund and then had to re-order. Fortunately my husband noticed soon enough before their trip so the replacement arrived in time. We are guessing that someone else purchased it and used it and it fell and broke so they returned it. My husband said that the replacement one that was not broken wasn't very sturdy as far as the parts that hold the light on so he plans to keep it stored in the original box when we aren't using it.
Very pleased with this little item. It's so versatile and light! Just get one, you'll find numerous ways to benefit from having it, camping, concerts, beach, office, kitchen ... anywhere! It is quiet and kept my tent air circulating along with the tent's big windows. And the lighting is perfect. Use it just for the lights, just for the fan or use both at the same time. You can direct the light or the air just about any direction you please. Don't let it's size confuse you. This little light and fan will be one of you favorite camping accessories and when you get it home, don't forget to put it back with your camping gear or you'll be sorry. Better yet, just buy two (one for the house and one to stay with your camping gear)!
Got the package and was surprisingly lighter than expected. I was a bit shocked to see this device work with "D" cell batteries, I don't think i've had anything run with D-cell batteries in several years. Either way once i made the trip to the local store for some dinosaur batteries, i found this thing does work. The light comes on just fine and seems to throw good light. The fan does come on with both speeds, the low speed doesn't seem as though it would be too much help but it puts out a bit of air. The device is not too loud when running which will help if needed while sleeping in a tent. I haven't actually put it to work in an outdoor setting yet so I am not sure on the longevity of the battery life yet. At first glance, knowing it runs on D-Cell batteries which weren't known for their life span i'm not hopeful a very long run time but only time will tell. Overall, the lamp seems rather light weight and rather flimsy. I wouldn't recommend keeping in a camping box to be thrown around as it probably wouldn't hold up, but if cared for it may well last longer than it appears at the surface.
For the price, i will accept it as it is and we shall see how long it lasts. I plan to use it mostly while out in my duck pen cleaning up and searching for the eggs that my hens just love to hide under the straw.
Uses 2 D cell batteries to power the lamp and fan. The lamp gives a good light that is not overly bright but plenty to light up my 11x9 tent. I used it camping and ran the fan on high all night, the fan is pretty quiet and although it does not provide a lot of wind, it does give a gentle breeze that keeps the air circulating in the tent. The light ring moves separately from the fan unit, they can be facing in two different directions. Seems like a good unit after this early test, let's see if it lasts.
