Portable fans are a standard accessory for commuting and outdoor events, and Rogbid is adding another option to the market with the Winggo. It is priced at $39.99 and functions as a handheld fan, offering a bit more utility than the usual plastic models by featuring an aluminum build, a highly adjustable hinge, and an active semiconductor cooling system.

Rogbid Winggo Specifications

The main functional difference between the Winggo and a standard battery-powered fan is its thermal management setup. The fan uses a 13,000 RPM motor that pushes air at up to 11 meters per second. However, blowing ambient air isn’t always effective in high heat.

To address this, Rogbid included a built-in semiconductor cooling pad. When activated, the pad drops in temperature in a few seconds, allowing you to press the cold metal directly against your neck or wrists for direct cooling, rather than just relying on moving air.

In terms of design, the Winggo features an 180-degree adjustable hinge. This gimbal-like mechanism allows the device to function in multiple orientations: as a standard handheld fan, angled as a freestanding desktop fan, or worn around the neck using an included lanyard.

The handle is made from an aluminum alloy, which gives it a more solid feel than standard polycarbonate plastic and offers better drop resistance. To prevent hair from getting caught in the blades when worn around the neck, the air intake is covered by a dual-layer honeycomb mesh.

For controls, the fan features a stepless adjustment system that lets you scroll through 100 different speed levels instead of the usual low, medium, and high presets. It also includes a small LED digital display on the front that shows the current speed setting and the remaining battery percentage.

The device is powered by a 3,000mAh battery that charges via USB-C. Rogbid says the fan can run for up to 10 hours on a single charge, though that metric is likely based on the lowest fan speed. The base of the fan also includes an LED light with three brightness settings and a flashing SOS mode for camping or emergencies.

Pricing and Availability

The Rogbid Winggo is available now on the company’s official store for $39.99 and comes in three colors: Space Gray, Champagne Gold, and Sakura Pink.

In related news, Rogbid has recently unveiled the SR15 Ultra smart ring, featuring a built-in display, vibration notifications, and comprehensive health monitoring.

TEMPT has released a new portable fan called the ICY in India. It is priced at Rs. 1,990 ($21) and combines standard fan blades with a built-in thermoelectric cooling plate. It is available now through the company’s website and Amazon India.

TEMPT ICY Portable Fan Specifications

Most handheld fans just circulate the surrounding air, which is not always helpful in high heat. The ICY takes a different approach by integrating a semiconductor cooling plate directly into the center of the fan head. When you turn on the device’s chiller mode, this plate drops to 18°C in a few seconds.

You can press the cold surface directly against your skin to lower your body temperature. It works using the same basic technology found in the active cooling nodes on wearable neck fans.

Behind that cooling plate is a brushless motor that spins the fan blades at over 14,000 RPM. According to TEMPT, the fan operates at under 20 decibels. That makes it quiet enough to use in an office, a classroom, or on public transit without drawing much attention from people nearby.

The device runs on a 4,000mAh lithium battery, and the overall battery life depends heavily on how you use it. If you only run the fan on its lowest setting, it lasts up to 12 hours. If you turn on the cooling plate while keeping the fan speed low, that maximum runtime drops to 10 hours.

There are four speed settings in total, which drain the battery in roughly 12, 9, 6, or 3 hours as you increase the airflow. When it runs out of power, you can recharge it using a standard USB-C cable. The full charge takes about 90 minutes, and you can plug it into a laptop, power bank, or standard wall adapter.

Physically, the fan is six inches long and features a lightweight build with a matte finish. TEMPT kept the hardware interface minimal, using a single physical button to turn the device on, cycle through the fan speeds, and activate the cooling plate. Right above the button, a small LED screen displays the current battery percentage, the active speed setting, and whether the cooling mode is currently running.

The fan ships with a lanyard for hands-free carrying, along with a travel pouch for storage. Buyers can choose from three colors: Elegant Beige, Bold Grey, and Serene White.
