The British summer isn't known for it's scorching hot days but this portable desk fan is a perfect illustration of solar power to both curious child and gadget-geek alike.

A simple easy-to-assemble construction of perspex panels, motor and mini solar-panel, the desk fan is a great way to circulate the air at your office desk or to cool your face whilst sunbathing at the pool. Portable, lightweight and of course, batteries-not-included, this solar fan will keep running all summer long through those long sunny days.

Q: I need this for a dog trailer, need to know if the solar panel could be fitted on top of trailer while fan was inside, I realise I would have to lengthen wire and and put a cage over blades of fan,

A: Unfortunately the fan would not be powerful enough for using in this manner. Thomas

lionel asked this question on 16th Jul 2008

Q: does it have an on off switch? and if fully charged how long would it last before panel needs to be recharge by sun energy?

A: The Solar Powered fan doesn't have an on/off switch, instead the blade spins when the solar panel is exposed to direct sunlight, and stops when shaded. This means that unfortunately the fan doesn't maintain a charge after it has been removed from the sun, but it is good fun to build and experiment with. Jo.
