I ride. 33 yrs and counting. Ever since I got my pant leg caught in my bicycle chain, tossing me off my bmx, I knew how nasty that can end.
Three solutions:
1.) I ride a Harley, so no chains anymore.
2.) This nifty little gadget or something similar
3.) DON'T START THE BIKE! The chain can be moved by rotating the rear tire manually.

USB C portable Fan

I honestly love this thing. It's so dumb but I use it quite a bit lol.


u/JustaFewQsAndAs · 7 pointsr/TruckCampers

That is one a nice Truck. Tons of room for activities.

The answer I have to your question is reliant on whether or not you're stealth camping. I purchased this Bug Net. Then cut it to the size of my back hatch and installed it with some velcro tape. Combined with the open windows it provides plenty of airflow. If you've tried sleeping with the gate down and are still getting too hot some battery powdered fans can definitely help. I also purchased two of these. The battery on em is short and I don't remember them being that expensive. However, their power consumption is low and I can charge em real quick with a portable battery.

I am able to sleep comfortably in my camper shell during the summer. But I am from Minnesota and it doesn't get too hot up here.

Amazon US and Amazon Canada.

Edit: this is far better quality, though. It is made from a computer case fan and will likely last you longer. Amazon US or Amazon Canada

u/Domdigity · 5 pointsr/comiccon

First off, congratulations! You know how the crowds will be, the waiting, and the bathroom situations, so honestly, you are already looking good there.

Last year, my wife attended and was about the same in terms of being in the first trimester (also first pregnancy). /u/housecatspeaks already has some great points about resting more. I would also recommend these mini-usb fans to keep cool: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07PWD24LL/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

They plug into any USB port so if you have a battery pack for your phone, you can use these on there and they will move the air exactly were you need it.

One last thing, be sure to bring whatever snacks you CAN eat since my wife didn't like the smell of anything in the food courts or nearby restaurants.

u/Strongpillow · 4 pointsr/OculusGo

Walking and standing near the shore really add to everything as well. I forgot to mention that part. Get a neck fan and you've got the perfect fishing experience. My neck fan.

u/zorak303 · 4 pointsr/NewOrleans

Nah, i close by blinds when i need to focus on computer stuff. That fan is actually an LED Fan...love it. And yeah i love trackballs...space saver!

u/onthefrontlinegaming · 4 pointsr/bigscreen

I use something like this to keep airflow on the front. Works great :-)

u/zippychick · 3 pointsr/Hyperhidrosis

I'm a really bad anxious sweater and I'm the worst in social situations. It's been the worst at school - from late high school to my last few years in college. Once I get the littlest bit overheated, I get nervous about sweating, and the viscous cycle begins.

I bought myself one of these handheld mini fans and it's been the best thing ever. People have even asked me to borrow it, and I have no shame in using it. It's actually really handy and I bring it a lot of places (school, work, vacation, camping). It helps get my mind off of the sweating and cools me down. 3 power modes, and it charges with a USB charger.

Honestly one of the biggest things for me is just giving myself extra time to get there. I travel from out of town to my college, so I listen to a podcast and enjoy the AC in my car. If I give myself some extra time to get to school, 15 minutes to chill out, cool down with my fan (lol), and get my mind off of it before class.

It's a huge mind over matter thing for me. If I don't think about it, I don't sweat. When I start to get anxious, sometimes I try to think of my senses - start to ask yourself about things you hear, see, touch, etc. That helps clear my mind a mo

Also, I wear primarily black, white, and patterns. So at least if I sweat, it's not super noticeable. I bring an extra shirt if I need to. Headbands and hats help too - I sweat a lot from my hairline area so a patterned headband helps hide it (not sure if this would work if you're a guy though haha).

u/rockker60 · 3 pointsr/HomeNetworking

Asus routers kinda run hot...I used a USB Laptop Cooler, now my temps are 58C or less, was ~75C.

Try to cool it first, see if that helps, I am also running Merlins ASUSwrt firmware, for me, it has proved to be rock steady, I only reboot at firmware upgrades. I also only use it as an AP, so YMMV.

u/DaSkunk · 3 pointsr/fursuit
u/MarieCakeAntoinette · 3 pointsr/TooAfraidToAsk

Could you plug in a small desk fan at your work station? The extra airflow might help you out. This guy is what I'm talking about:

u/CulturalTortoise · 3 pointsr/motorcycles

You're going to need a chain brush, chain cleaner and chain lube regardless. So buy them now, try clean it up and if it has no rust on, you should be good.

Chain brush


Chain cleaner (this really helps!)


I've had slight rust on a chain before on one spot, this cleaned it right up. To be completely honest, that chain looks done though. Get a new one to be on the safe side.

u/Nimble_Centipeder · 3 pointsr/teslamotors

What about this fan? It’s almost an exact 4 inches by dimension. I bet this would work well.

u/AutomationAir · 3 pointsr/TheSilphRoad

I found this on Amazon. One of the reviews even mentions using it for Pokemon Go. Relatively cheap, too. I know it's not a shield, but it might help.

u/pbewig · 3 pointsr/vandwellers

Both of the products that you mentioned look over-priced and over-specified.

If you limit yourself to 5V USB I recommend a 75 watt-hour battery ($37) for its dual inputs; it charges twice as fast as a normal battery. That should be sufficient to charge two cell phones, a small lamp ($4) and a fan ($17). You can charge the battery from a wall outlet, with a cigarette lighter USB adapter ($10), or with a small solar panel ($100).

You might prefer a Luci light ($15) to the lamp mentioned above; it charges itself from the sun and won't consume any of your battery capacity.

If you need 12 volts, I recommend a 185 watt-hour battery ($130), which will also charge a laptop computer. It recharges from a wall outlet, or you can use a 150 watt inverter ($24) from your cigarette lighter.

u/laserdollars420 · 3 pointsr/rollercoasters

Just rock this sexy-as-hell portable neck fan.

u/Slippery_Fat_Man · 3 pointsr/axolotls

If you're cycling frozen bottles a lot then that might be an issue. It creates a lot of stress when you have temperatures going up and down very frequently. You have to think of a more permanent solution to accommodate them. I don't know if that is your problem for sure but if he's curling then that's often a sign of stress. I would also take pictures of it, show us and post to caudata.org too. They have many more people who are more knowledgeable on this stuff. I wish you the best of luck. I know something like this pointed at the top of your water helps cool it down very well. Hope this helps!

u/snowvase · 2 pointsr/CrappyDesign

Well to be absolutely fair it does exactly what it says in the advert:

"USB Table Fan Portable Mini Personal Desk Fan with 360 Rotation and Adjustable 3 Speed for Office, Travel"

u/DrMcSmartass · 2 pointsr/weddingplanning

Another suggestion to add to the mix is to get yourself a fan! I'm also a ridiculously sweaty beast and carry a small folding fan (bought at the dollar store) in my purse to at least keep my face cool. I also am a huge fan of those small battery powered fans and fully plan to pack one and some extra batteries in my wedding day bag so I can get a bit of air movement up my skirt if needed.

u/netchemica · 2 pointsr/ar15

> it’s often difficult or impossible to remove a hot can from a rifle without a pair of channel locks even though it’s allegedly a QD system

I rarely have trouble taking off my specwar, it's usually no harder than a new pickle jar. The problem comes in when you install a hot can onto a cold rifle. That can will seize on there REALLY fucking good.

I ended up unthreading my muzzle device, which had a copious amount of rocksett on it, and soaking the barrel end of the suppressor along with the brake in a cup of PB blaster for a few days. I then mounted the muzzle device in a vise and used a giant strap wrench to take it off. I ended up dragging my work bench while doing this. Holy fuck that was a nightmare.

I ended up buying a small portable fan that I rest on or underneath the suppressor when the line is cold.

u/germanbini · 2 pointsr/homeless

Hey I'm not the OP, for more info please go to the original post to congratulate them. :)



Personally I DO live in a van, it's a 1992 Chevy G20 Gladiator. I have a memory foam mattress on top of a wooden platform, totes and cardboard boxes for storage (food, clothing, etc.) underneath. having the mattress off the floor gives space for storage, and also insulates the mattress from the heat or cold of the ground.

For privacy I have tinted windows, non-adhesive window film, collapsible foil sunshade for the front window, and black bug screen mesh like this for the side windows.

For water I use sturdy Arizona tea jugs. I have a basic Coleman camping toilet for nighttime and emergency uses - some people simply use pee bottles or five gallon buckets.

If it's cold at night I have a [12V electric blanket](https://www.walmart.com/ip/TREKSAFE-12-Volt-Heated-Travel-Blanket-White/54609929] and/or a 12V "car seat" warmer that I put under the mattress. I also have a propane Little Buddy heater which I have not yet used.

My main luxury item is an Alpicool C15 refrigerator powered by two 35AH "house batteries" (in parallel) which are charged using a Battery Doctor isolator. The Battery Doctor is run by my alternator when I drive-it only starts charging the house batteries after my van battery is full. The fridge uses 5.8AH per day. I used a cooler for a year, but the drawbacks are constantly buying or procuring ice (like from soda fountains), and food spoilage from it getting waterlogged, plus having to drain it frequently.

For hot meals, I use a 12 volt "lunchbox cooker" (works similar to a crock pot) which is powered in my cigarette lighter while I drive (or I can run it with the house batteries through a 12v splitter - the Alpicool is plugged into the other side. I also have a propane camping stove which I have never used.

I have a USB mini fan to run at night, or I can run my small regular fan through the 300W power inventor where I can also charge my laptop and/or phone (I usually charge the phone in the cigarette lighter).

I don't make any money if you buy from any of these links, but I only used them for illustrative purposes - I encourage you to shop around on Craigslist, eBay, Amazon, Walmart, check yard sales, etc. find the best priced similar item that works best for you. You don't have to get everything all at once - I didn't. But if you can get a basic minivan or van (seats removed), a mattress (or sleeping bag even) on a frame, and some jugs of water, it's a start.

u/Sierrasclimber · 2 pointsr/vandwellers

I have this fan
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01GZMMH7K/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
and that power bank. Just used it last week. Works nice power bank will last a few nights.

Still this is just a bandaid until I put in a second battery but it is simple, easy to setup, and a great future backup.

The problem with your plan is why would anyone else want this deal? If it is at a friends house sure but a stranger that's going to be a rare find I think.

u/daevan · 2 pointsr/PSVR

I'm a bit sweaty and I've just bought a neck fan, it really really helps!

Someone else reccomend these on Amazon, thinking one in and another going out will do a lot of good.

u/RetardedChimpanzee · 1 pointr/computers

The processor would throttle itself, then shutdown if it gets too hot. Though if your worried invest in a laptop cooler. They aren't magical, but it should drop it down to around 70 which is safe

u/badab00ms · 1 pointr/GlobalOffensive

I bought a small usb pluggable fan and put it on my desk aimed not too far from my hand. Works wonders. My hands are made of butter so I tried lots of things.

Here's the one I got, and its very study and surprisingly long lasting. There are many like these and cheaper as well https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01DZYUSEA/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

u/_potato_farm_ · 1 pointr/iphone

One person I know in real life had a 6+ (iirc), and after using the fan they couldn't charge the phone anymore. After that I looked it up and saw a lot of people complaining about the same thing.

u/STR4NGE · 1 pointr/oculus

I wonder if you could tinker with one of these? I was actually wondering if I could pull this off for War Thunder a couple days ago. Is it even possible to control power from the USB directly?
edit: Just found a post about some trying to control the power output they did what you did. This is so cool.

u/Dixonian89 · 1 pointr/PSVR

A fan could help, but what you are getting is the VR sweats. It's a form VR motion sickness. You could feel absolutely no nausea, and still sweat profusely. The are a few unfortunate souls (like yourself) who suffer from this, where this is a way their body reacts to vr, like it doesn't know what to do with what it sees so it just starts to sweat like crazy. A fan like this could help you a ton https://www.amazon.com/Hand-Free-Personal-Fan-Rechargeable/dp/B07PLFHQJ5 . As well as just a normal standing fan blowing on the rest of your body. You can also try a sweat headband. Ginger may also help, but that is usually used for feeling nauseous from VR motion sickness. Good luck. Sorry you were unlucky to have this happen to you, but besides these few suggestions, there isn't much you can do that I know of.

u/account_117 · 1 pointr/pcmasterrace

I got a Cooling pad for my Lenovo (16gb ram 4gb gpu(Radeon m275x or whatever) core i7 5500 1920x1080) and it really is nice. I use it when I'm playing fallout and other intensive games and it keeps my computer noticeably cooler than it usuall you is with out it

It is usb powered and has legs to angle it for more airflow

I don't think any barbershop will have what you're looking for unfortunately

u/RedEye99 · 1 pointr/MotoUK

Oh, you could also go for a brush like this: http://www.amazon.co.uk/RBM-Motorcycle-chain-cleaning-brush/dp/B00LJYAESY

pretty cheap and will basically get all the areas you could want.

u/viewerxx · 1 pointr/WaltDisneyWorld

Depending on your child - go slow, have low expectations, get a clip-on USB-powered fan and battery pack.

u/Aquifel · 0 pointsr/Cyberpunk

It will probably require more work to get them to look as cool as the one in this post, but you can get a smaller version with about the same technology for $15 on amazon:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N6PJX5J/

Advance warning: These ones are not super-reliable, however, you can buy 25 of them and still come out ahead financially.
