If your summer plans include a camping trip or two, a solid camping fan can mean the difference between a reasonably comfortable night’s sleep and one spent tossing and turning in a sweat-soaked sleeping bag. Right now, Walmart has a cleverly designed camping fan (that also has a useful lantern) on sale for nearly half off.
The Merryhome Rechargeable Camping Fan with Light is on sale for $22 at Walmart, 45% off its normal $40 price tag. That price is good on the white version of the fan; a khaki option is also on sale, albeit for $2 more. Either way, you’ll be getting a great deal on something that will more than earn its place.
As opposed to standard camping fans that are meant to sit on a flat surface, this model has the option to be hung high from the frame of a tent. This design, an approximation of a ceiling fan, allows for more even cooling (and illumination) through the entire tent and takes up exactly zero valuable floor space. Adding to the campsite luxury are features like a remote control, timer, 4 speeds, 3 brightness levels, USB-C charging of the 7200mAh battery, and automatic stopping when the blades are touched, a key feature if you’re bringing kids along. All in all, it’s a great way to narrow the gap between camping and glamping.
One shopper called this “lightweight and quiet” fan “a total lifesaver” on a weekend trip. “The 7200mAh battery lasted all night on a single charge, keeping the tent cool and comfortable,” and “the built-in light was bright enough to read by.” They also mentioned that they “loved that I could adjust everything with the remote without getting out of my sleeping bag.” It was so great, they “won’t camp without it again.”
Another customer wrote that this “brilliant” product is “the greatest camping idea ever.” It’s “a whisper-quiet ceiling fan in my tent with a light and remote” that’s “very small, lightweight, and rechargeable—just what I needed.”
