I was already a big fan of SwitchBot’s big circulator fan I recently reviewed, and now we’re getting the SwitchBot Battery Circulator Fan 2 Pro. Priced at $119.99, it ditches the height-adjustable stand but increases battery life, throw distance, and wind speed while adding native Matter-over-Wi-Fi, allowing it to join your smart home without needing a separate SwitchBot Hub.
The compact Fan 2 Pro is designed to be carried anywhere and move air around medium-sized rooms, a balcony, or family tent. It features a big 3,600mAh battery for up to 70 hours of very quiet (21dB), cordless operation at low speed, or four hours on max. It can operate even longer when connected to a USB-C power bank or large power station. The blades, filter, and front & rear housing are fully detachable for easy cleaning, and there’s even an integrated nightlight.
