Hi David. Just curious about this little fan. How big is it? I have one that runs on one D cell with a 4" blade with adjustable gooseneck that I use to cool the van while camped. It let's us sleep in the heat anyway!! I only get 2 or 3 nights out of the one cell though. I paid around $12 CDN a couple years ago. Is this little fan made specifically for the fridge?
