The best equipment I have purchased so far in the year 2024 will have to be this rechargeable table fan that can be charged using both electricity and power bank. Just some days back in my country Nigeria, we were all surprised at the rise in the cold weather that should have happened in December or January. It was so cold in February that it was so freezing to get to work and we had to wear sweater and long dresses to protect from too much cold as it can cause cough, cater or even fever. To our great surprise, some days back the heat that befell the country was so intense that we find it difficult to sleep properly if there was no electricity to power the air conditioners and the standing or ceiling fans. We literally take our baths with cold water at specific times of the day because the heat is beginning to leave painful rashes on the body.

As you can see from the picture above, that the rechargeable portable fan been powered by a power bank as the heat at the moment is unbearable. Due to the insufficient supply of electricity to the area, we have been subject to this torture for a while now. To the extent that People wonder if "someone left hell fire and forgot to shut the door" funny but true, it explains what the situation is. I had to purchase this gadget, so that I can make use of it especially at night time when it is intense, because it feels so wet and the mattress and pillows get soaked from sweat.
These rechargeable fans that consist of powered by a battery is a great technology that are created in a portable and convenient manner for personal cooling, especially in situations where there is limited access to cooling methods like air conditioning. Almost every lady has this cost effective technology as it can be carried around,sued at occasions, offices, workshop and so. It has even become a practice for brides to hold one so as to prevent sweats from ruining their makeup.
Luckily for me, I had purchased a heavy duty power bank back in 2023 when we had light issues and it was needed to power up my phones and other stuff, so that I would not be offline for too long. These gadgets of power bank and mini fan have come handy this period and I am glad because I am using my money's worth.
The Excessive heat in Nigeria is so bad that it can be a significant concern especially for people who do a lot by hustling on the streets, although given the country's tropical climate,it is expected but it is exceeing the usual. Thus I would advise my fellow Nigeria's, to take adequate measures by staying cool and hydrated during hot weather, also the adverse effect of the heat can be avoided by staying indoors during peak heat hours especially if you have no business outside. Endeavor to wear lightweight and breathable clothing, and drinking plenty of water to stay hydrated.
In conclusion, this has got to be my most recent purchase that is serving it's purpose by keeping me cool when electricity has failed me.
