Project Ideas

Business

Pop-up Event Cooling Rental

Rent bundles of cordless fans with tripods and hooks for markets, weddings, and sports meets lacking power. Offer variable-speed climate zones under tents or inside barns. Charge per day with optional battery swap service.


Mobile Drying for Trades

Provide on-demand drying/curing support for painters, drywallers, epoxy installers, and flooring crews. Use multiple fans to speed compound, primer, or topcoat turnover between coats, especially on punch-list days or in new builds without power.


Food Truck & Pop-up Ventilation

Offer short-term ventilation/cooling kits for food trucks and vendor tents: mount fans to improve airflow near grills, prep areas, or customer queues. IP54 resists grease and dust; cordless operation avoids overloading generators.


Photo/Video Wind Effects Kit Rental

Rent ready-to-shoot wind kits (fan, light stand adapter, batteries, and carry case) to small studios and content creators. Market as a quiet, variable-speed alternative for on-location shoots where power is limited.


Emergency Spot Ventilation & Drying

Launch a rapid-response service for minor water intrusions, crawlspace ventilation, and odor control where power may be out. Cordless fans enable immediate airflow while generators are staged; bill per hour and per fan with battery rotation.

Creative

Portable Mini Spray Booth

Build a collapsible spray booth from a plastic tote or foam board with a furnace filter panel. Mount the 20V fan to pull overspray through the filter. Variable speed protects delicate finishes; IP54 helps with dusty paint environments, and cordless power lets you spray outdoors.


Rapid Finish Drying Rack

Create a foldable rack with peg points and a swivel mount for the fan to accelerate drying of paint, stain, epoxy, or glue. Use low airflow for water-based finishes to avoid skinning, and high speed (up to 650 CFM) for thicker coatings. Great for furniture, model-making, or sign shops.


DIY Wind Tunnel for Paper/RC Designs

Make a clear acrylic box with a simple honeycomb flow straightener (drinking straws or 3D-printed grid). Place the fan at one end and a test stand in the center to evaluate paper planes, foam gliders, or aero fairings. Variable speed lets you incrementally test lift and stability.


Photo/Video Wind FX Rig

Mount the fan on a light stand or tripod using the built-in mounting options to create controllable wind for hair, fabric, and smoke effects. Cordless operation keeps sets tidy; dial in subtle movement or full gusts without needing AC power.


Camp Evaporative Cooler Hack

Convert a small cooler into a battery-powered swamp cooler: cut outlet vents, add ice or ice packs, and set the fan on low/medium to push cool air into a tent or canopy. IP54 helps with condensation; cordless runtime makes it campsite-friendly.
