Please suggest D cell batteries for this fan? Please

Use the cable to plug into vehicle power, if at all possible. I wouldn't recommend D cells because the fan draws about 1 Amp, so the battery life will be only an hour or so of operation. If you must use battery power, then get a small motorcycle lead acid rechargeable battery and wire it appropriately. In the extreme, deep-cycle batteries would be better, and if cost is not important, you could even use photocells.

A good battery would be Duracell or Energizer. I personally use the 12 volt adaptor and a 12 volt battery.

It depends on what brand of batteries you use. I use my fan on and off when I get hot flashes for 3 to 5 minutes at a time all day long. With Duracell batteries 2 batteries will last up to 5 days like this, although the cheap batteries that come with the fan only last a couple days. Also the fan will blow much better with the duracell or energizer batteries. You can really tell the difference. If you are purchasing for hot flashes I highly recommend this fan. However eventually the blades need to be repositioned ( squeezed together, no big deal ) or it wont blow as well, straight at you. I usually replace the fan with a new one every couple of months so stock up It depends on what brand of batteries you use.

Not sure but we've been using regular Duracell D batteries with no problems. It's a great little radio.

Any USB wall plug of any voltage will work. If you can charge your smartphone you can run this fan.

Yes 4 d cell but they hardly ever need replaced if you don't use the fan or speakers. Use the fan and speakers and it will eat batteries in a hurry. Get an adapter if you plan to use those.

Sorry for taking so long to answer your question - computer's been down. This fan/light takes 4 "D" Batteries.

Is there any way you can send a photo of what you are describing. I know the battery and the neck strap are there in the box, but nor sure what you are describing. These are great fans and I bought extra high capacity batteries from ebay for these fans, so I always have power for the fan. I also bought an external battery charger too. My email for the pictures is scottefranklin@hotmail.com.

Contact the manufacturer regarding your specific brand of battery.... they're very helpful reputable people.

Sorry, but it's been a while since we bought this item. We keep a supply of batteries on hand at all times, so that wasn't important for us. If you order the fan, it's not a bad idea to have a backup set anyway, so I would buy the batteries just in case.

The battery can draw/use 1 amp and run 7 hours. You have to know how many amps the fan will draw... for an example the fan draws 2 amps then the fan can run about 3.5 hours

I am powering a dc fan in my roof vent using two of them. If you connect to battery you need a charging controller. dc motors dont care to much what the voltage , more on the load

Hello. D batteries. I believe 4 I love these. They're in my little girls room. I have not had to change the batteries yet. Love these. Especially for the price.

According to my research the battery life is about 40 hours per set depending on the quality of the batteries you use. I have not used my Fan at all except to test it because it's for emergency weather problems when we lose power. I hope this helps you out!!!!!!!

I've always used 2 D Cell batteries with mine. Mine has a place I could plug in a power adapter, but it did not come with one and I've never used one with it. I'm still on my original batteries and I use it at ballgames in the summer all the time!

actually any 9volt battery of your preference would be fine; I get good use out of the Duracell duralock batteries.

Hello, I don't know, your best bet (probably) would be to email them and ask...seems there a jillion batteries out there.
