tent fans (small battery fans)

The sleeping area of our TT gets kind of stuffy even with the windows open. I am thinking about a small fan just for nightime. We do not have a generator and usually boondock so no power available. I am wondering if anyone has used these (tent fans) and how long the batteries last when run all night

And another O2Cool fan fan here. Buy rechargeable batteries for it or if you have enough batteries on your camper, just run it on those with a power port adapter.

What about a small deep cycle battery and small inverter then use ac fans?

D cells are what, $1-$1.50 each?

X2 we have a large one that runs on D cell batteries it runs for a long time. Great for dry camping. We also have the small ones that we keep on the night stand in the TT. They run all night and also last a long time. Great product.

We too use the O-2 CooL fans AMAZON-WALMART...

They use 12VDC, 120VAC ADAPTER, and also has D-CELLS inside… works for long time off of internal batteries...

Have one for each of the two TENT BEDS with our off-road POPUP camper...

This has a 10 or 11 Inch fan and is whisper quiet... ALso perfect size to sit behind the low profile OIL FILLED Portable heaters we use all the time to blow warm air around the room...

I'm a dry camper/boondocker too. Why not investigate a solar system to make running a fan, TV, lights etc. easy?

A dog crate can will run about 3 days if you forget to turn it off. They cost about $15 and are very quiet.
