Nuuk BFF: Yes, I can do with a handheld fan in the Delhi summer
Over the past few years, I have noticed how handheld fans are becoming a thing, especially in Kerala. And during a vacation in Malaysia earlier this month, I saw that most tourists had one in their hand to take on the sultry weather. This is why I wanted to test out the Nuuk BFF which was gaining a lot of traction on social media. As expected from Nuuk, this rechargeable personal fan has a stylish and functional design. But this is not something that will stick out in a crowd and many of us prefer our designs to be subtle and not too loud. The handle houses a 3600 mAh battery. While the fan faces you, there is a small LED below to show the speed. The dial on the side can be double-pressed to switch on the fan and turned to increase the speeds. Now this is where the fan gets very interesting. I initially thought the fan would have maybe five or ten speed levels. But as you rotate the dial you realise it goes up all the way to a 100. And at that setting, whirring at 12000+ RPM, this fan is really fast and powerful. With Delhi humidity kicking in over the past few weeks, a few seconds in front of the BFF meant you were at least sweat-free. The real power of the BLDC fans is felt only after you ramp up the speed at least midway. At this point, you can feel the air hit your face even from a small distance. At 100, the fan blows your hair all over the place and has a distinct whirring sound. Since the fan head can be tilted 180 degrees, I used this on my work desk and sofa with the fans facing me. That worked well and kept me cool even when the power decided to play hide and seek when the demand peaked in UP. Then there is IceTouch. A long press on the dial switches this mode on and offers a slight nip along with the powerful wind. This was especially helpful when used outdoors under the sweltering sun. If you find some shade too, then you have a temporary summer sanctuary of your own. With IceTouch on, I noticed a bit of condensation on the front of the fan. The device is pretty compact and can easily slip into the side pocket of your office bag, or even into your denims. The design is also very safe and you can hardly even see the blades of the fan, so no chances of accidents. The 3600 mAh battery can last you an entire working day, but not if IceTouch is on all the while — so use that feature sparingly. The only issue I spotted with the BFF was that it took a few attempts to switch it off — again a double press on the dial, but there were no challenges switching it on. At Rs 2,049, the Nuuk BFF is a great accessory for those struggling with the summers and those who have to spend a lot of time outdoors. The IceTouch is a nice touch that takes this product to a whole new level and justifies the slightly high pricing. Nandagopal Rajan writes on technology, gadgets and everything related.
