The JisuLife Life2 is the thinnest and lightest of the four JisuLife fans we’ve tested: 103 g on our scale and only 2.1 cm thin. You can hold it, stand it on a table with the fold-out stand or hang it around your neck. We used it at Finchley Campground in Yengo National Park over summer, where it was great for cooling down while sitting in the shade. It also helped keep the flies away, which was really handy.
What You’re Getting
An ultra-thin handheld fan with five blades, three speeds and a 2,000 mAh rechargeable battery. A stand folds out of the back so it works as a small desk fan, and a neck strap comes with it. A safety lock on the side stops it switching on by accident in a bag. It charges over USB-C. We paid $35.

In the box
The Life2 comes with a neck strap, so you can wear it around your neck, and a USB-C cable for charging. A full charge of the 2,000 mAh battery runs it for about 13 hours on low.
Stand, strap and safety lock
The stand folds out of the back and props the fan up on a table at an angle. With the neck strap you can wear it hands-free, and the safety lock on the side keeps it from switching on by accident in a pocket or bag, so the battery doesn’t run flat.
JisuLife fans compared
We’ve reviewed four JisuLife fans: the Life2, the bigger Life7 with a display, the pocket-sized Life8 Plus with a power bank and torch, and the Table Fan Life3. The Life2 is the lightest by far, but it has the smallest battery.

Conclusion: JisuLife Handheld Fan Life2Conclusion
The JisuLife Life2 is an ultra-thin 103 g fan that works in the hand, on a table or around your neck, with three speeds, a safety lock and USB-C charging. Its 2,000 mAh battery is the smallest of the four JisuLife fans we’ve tested, at about 13 hours on low. At Finchley Campground over summer it was great for cooling down in the shade, and it helped keep the flies away. At $35 it costs more than the Life8 Plus, which runs much longer. Still, it suits hikers, travellers and everyday carry, when a fan has to fit in a pocket.

Yes, if you want the lightest fan. I paid $35 for the thinnest of the four, and it kept us cool in the shade over summer; the Life8 Plus costs less and runs longer.
