A Handheld Fan Powered by a Makita Tool Battery in Pursuit of Maximum Wind
A handheld fan is usually supposed to be small and light. KOBAYASHI KAITO ELECTRO took the opposite route with a 'world's most powerful(?) handheld fan' driven by a Makita power-tool battery for Maker Faire Tokyo 2026. The device is assembled from five 3D-printed parts and accepts the chunky tool battery directly. It remains technically handheld, but its power system has clearly wandered into the world of workshop equipment.

The fan stayed handheld, but the power source suddenly became power-tool grade. Portability is now negotiating with ambition.
