FAQ:
- Do Portable Fans Use a Lot of Electricity?
Since most portable fans require charging, some may question - do portable fans use a lot of electricity? Would it be more preferable to use an air conditioner instead? Fret not, we have gathered the different power usages between a portable fan and air conditioner.
If You Use Air Conditioning Units:
Most air conditioning units consume roughly 4100 watts of power hourly, while medium sized air conditioners can use up to 3000 watts of power every hour. That;s really a lot of power required. While there are many eco-friendly units these days, they don’t really come cheap.
If You Use Portable Fans:
However, portable fans only require up to 30 watts of power hourly at the maximum power setting. And larger box fans may require up to 100 watts of power hourly. That is only 3% of the power required for a medium sized Air Conditioner.
In short, a portable fan is much more energy efficient and less power consuming compared to an Air Conditioner. With a portable fan you will be able to save much more power, and money in the long run.
