Why does the product look different in every picture? Are the solar panels circles or are they rounded squares? Is the hat tan or grey? Do the fans tilt or are they locked in place? In the third picture (with the sweaty guy holding architectural drawings), what are those blurry things coming out of the fans? Are those exposed blades??

Got close to picking one up despite the geeky appearance. But decided to go to Amazon to get a general impression of how these hats work in the real world. There are several brands, ranging around $20-30. Two major complaints: (1) the fans are too heavy, causing the brims to collapse vertically and (2) despite the USB charge, they often don't work when the sun isn't shining.

Based on the girl model pictured on That Daily Deal, this might be the hat at Amazon. Note it only has 5 reviews, so I had to look at similar hats to get reviews of these hats.

It ripped out my hair. Don't buy one of these things if you have long hair.

Community Reviews

This solar fan hat is meant for hands free cooling and sun protection, with a ventilated wide brim and a battery option when the sun is not strong enough. The main appeal is the novelty of built in fans for hot weather, and it can even be worn backwards to push air toward the neck. The biggest problems are weak solar performance, loud fans, and a heavy design that can collapse the brim or pull hair. Fit and finish also draw complaints, including Mini USB charging, color mismatches, and a brim that arrives folded or flimsy.

Common Questions (5)

  • The solar panel is reported to be too weak for reliable use on its own, and the fan may only work well enough on battery power. In shade or without strong sun, it can be weak or stop after a very short run time.

  • It is ventilated rather than blowing straight out through the top. The fan setup is meant to move air through the hat, but several comments note the cooling is weak and can be noisy.

  • The brim can collapse or flip down because the fans are heavy, and a folded brim may weaken support further. That can make the hat look and sit differently from the product photos.

    softriderlinespliceCaptJan

  • It can be risky for long hair because the fan mechanism reportedly caught and ripped hair out. That makes it a poor choice if your hair can get near the moving parts.

    kbystrak

  • Wearing it backwards can direct airflow onto the neck, which may feel better than having the fans blow into your face. The front-mounted fans can make conversation harder, and the setup is reported to work only meh to okay on battery power.

Was offered a neck fan during checkout for 5.99 figured may as well cover both ends of coolness. Looks silly, but I'm a sucker for bucket hats.

Do the fan units have blinking lights?

Wondering the same. Also wondering if you can wear this 90deg from where the picture shows so the fans are in the front and back, rather than right next to your ears.

Thanks, perfect gift for my little brother's upcoming birthday. They like to go to the Airshow and camp for a month, should be perfect for those summer days.

Any experience with shipping speed from ThatDailyDeal?

Gonna be in the tropical heat this summer - might as well be 'cool' temperature-wise while being the opposite on dress code - a dorky nerd... anything but 'cool' style-wise...
