If I use rechargeable batteries, will they charge when the fan is plugged in ?

We bought rechargeable batteries bc of not we would be spending way too much on batteries. The fan has a plug? Wasn't aware of that, so unfortunately I am not able to answer your question.

Gosh, have no idea. I've only charged the batteries from a regular plug-in.

I'm sorry I purchased this fan to us on a battery charger for my RC planes so I do not know the answer to your question.

Dear Kene,No. Rechargeable batteries have to use a dedicated battery charger.Regards

No, the fan can't run off batteries, at least not as is out of the box. The cord is about 3 feet long if I recall.

No, you have to plug it in the charge it, but then you unplug it when you use it.

Not long enough. My recharges never worked.I use a battery pack to run the fan.

The fan does turn off after 100% charge is reached. The fan does turn on occasionally when trickle charging for short periods of time. I use my charger to keep the battery charged for my back up sump pump and it has worked great.

I don't think that will work. I charge the batteries with a standard outlet. Hope that helps.

As far as I know, they automatically charge when the batteries are put in the main part. They lit up as soon as we put the batteries in.

I used a car battery on it's own with out using the one in my vehicle when I was camping but the fan seems to draw very little from the battery, after my trip I hooked my smart charger to the battery and it didn't seem to really need much charging and I was running the fan every night for 3 nights.

I didn't get the rechargeable batteries. I leave the fan plugged in at work

No-It appears to work by an automatic switch. When plugged in battiers off-[unless you have rechargeable batteries-then they are charging]-other wise the regular batteries are bypassed when it is plugged in. Michael Barnes

Pretty much. Sometimes fan runs in C-Max for a bit, but yes it does stop charging.

yea it will be fine to leave it plugged in and the batteries in. they are lithium ion type batteries the same kind in laptops and cell phones. so they will charge up then the charger will just keep them charged till your ready to use them, i dont know about long term though like over a week or two probably wouldnt be great for them.

Yes, as long as you hook everything up correctly, the batteries are rechargeable.

Yes, both of mine came with a cord to recharge it. The first fan we wore out with 12 hours of daily use over several years. Also, the first fan came with an extra back-up battery. The second one that I purchased several years later did not so I saved the batteries from the first fan although I never needed the extra battery.
