Keep internal of car cooler 1 answer
I carry my 12 volt car fridge in my car and don’t like leaving fridge at camp when I go exploring So even when hot fridge is in car Would this fan run on my second cig lighter as I drive car When I park car can I pull it from cig lighter and keep internal cool

G'day Barry,
I'm a bit confused about what you are asking sorry!
The fan can 100% be run via the 12v power cable, so you can operate the fan whilst you are driving no worries. I think I answered your similar question on this yesterday, so apologies if I've doubled up at all. Running the fane whilst on 12v won't charge the battery.
If you want to run your fan when you've parked the car, you can run it off the battery, but you'll need to make that's fully charged at a time when you don't want to run the fan.
The other thing to consider is that if its 40 degrees inside your car, then the fan will just be pushing 40 degree air around. It won't actually make things cooler for your fridge.
Hope that helps.

Disable oscillation?1 answer
Hi, can you disable the oscillation function on this 8 inch model and the larger 12 inch model?
Nath - Adelaide Bc, SA(3 years ago)
G'day Nath,
Yep, you absolutely can. The Grey cap in the centre of the fan is actually a dial which either locks the fan in place, or releases it for oscillation. Hope that helps!

Can we charge the battery while driving as we won’t have access to power for one week?

Hanging1 answer
Can this fan be hung from the top of hiking tent to blow down? Or is it only operational on the stand?
Tania - Randwick(4 years ago)
G'day Tania,
There aren't any attachment points to hang this fan, but if your tent could withstand the weight, and you had a way to suspend it, then it could possibly work, however it's not something we'd be comfortable recommending.

What is the difference between this 8" Coleman fan, and the black 8* fan ?1 answer
besides the weight and huge price?
Lea - Eastern Heights(5 years ago)
G'day Lea,
The two models are effectively the same in terms of features and function. The Black model has a Lithium-Ion battery, which is lighter and the white model has a lead-acid battery which is heavier.

batteries 1 answer
can you use own batteries (rechargeable or not)
Joshua - Victoria Point(5 years ago)
G'day Joshua,
The Lithium battery is a 'cell pack' and is specific to this fan and as such we can't recommend using your own batteries as a replacement as this may void the warranty or damage the fan. If they do need replacing it would be worth contacting Coleman or visiting an electronics store.
