Always make a point of keeping offcuts from your projects, particularly offcuts that are relatively large\u2026 you will never know when they might come in handy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this case, we purchased a small hand-held 3-speed fan with a replaceable battery back-up. It is charged with a mini-USB and the 18650 Li-ion 3.7V battery gives it quite a long run time of 30 or more minutes, depending on the speed you select. Naturally, the faster the speed, the quicker the battery will run down and the shorter the run time. However, you simply recharge it when the Eskom power is back on again. Even better, have a second or even third battery available, fully charged (these batteries can be purchased at various stores) so you can simply pop a fresh battery in as the current one runs down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
