It is ranked #1 in USB fan, but it doesnt mention anywhere that it has. I think it is just a plug. Am I right?

I don't know because I haven't seen that ranking, and I don't know what "USB fan" is. It works really well, however, even though it's small, so that's why I gave it a good review. I use 2 on our screened-in porch to keep airflow going. We have a ceiling fan, but it doesn't circulate the air at seat level.

Yes, it does come with a USB cable for the fan. So there is no need to purchase another one.

Because it is taking up one of your on-board USB ports to power it. The fan acts as a small USB hub so that you are gaining one instead if losing one on the computer.

there's not a place to plug in a usb cable on the lap desk. there's just a usb cord that's connected to the desk from inside the unit that controls the fan..you can't take it off. the usb cord is strictly for the fan. you plug the cord into your laptop.

aloha teri,there is no a/c cord for the fan, but there is a 2.0 standard USB plug,which should fit any USB outlet on a computer it also has an additional outlet on the cord,so you dont lose any data ports. sincerely Todd, P.S. i am able to plug both the cooling fan and a small lighted x-mas tree, at the same time,into just one port.

No. However, the product page has a pdf available for you to view. The pdf shows which lapdesk has the "Virtually silent airflow fan (USB powered)".

No, this is designed to be a USB-powered supplemental cooling fan for computers.

No it cannot be plugged into a USB. Although you can order a plug with the fan to plug it into an additional power source.

it comes with a small cable that has a USB end so that the fan has power, but the end on the product is not USB it looks like a cell phone type adapter....this product is very poorly assembled for a Sharper Image product!

I still have my Original one (More than 3 years old...) and the plug connection (USB) still works fine for me. The reason I bought a second one is that when the ambient temperature is cool,... the fans (Probably the Bearings...) often make excessive noise untill it runs for a while. So for me,.. the USB connection has NOT been an issue. Hope this may help.

There are two cords that connect at the back of the unit. One goes to an electrical outlet. The other goes to the USB port on the computer. There is an off and on switch on the back. The unit can be turned off when not in use. When it is turned on you can hear the fan running, but it isn't that loud. I assume the a/c cord powers the unit and the USB cord transfers the information. Hope this is helpful.

Not sure exactly what you are asking, but the unit has a usb cord to plug into the usb port on your laptop in order to power the fans. Hope this helps.

It comes with a small cable (USB on one end and a tiny pin on other end) . You can plug the USB end to laptop to operate the fan.

That's crap, they don't say anywhere that it has a plug. I thought it was usb-powered.

It only plugs in with a USB cable. No batteries and no wall plug in. The air flow of this fan is very weak. I bought it to use at my desk at work and I could barely feel any air coming from it, sitting right next to it.
