Lol, there have been times when mine has needed one, too. Now, if the fan can be powered through the phone battery with USB OTG or something, that would be genius 😄

@halm
It can be! Just needs a USB a to USB c adapter... Not sure impact on battery as I generally only need it when I'm not suspended on a charger

It came through! Maybe the mastodon-to-lemmy federation is a bit slow sometimes.

Oh, cool 😆 I couldn't tell from the photo where the cables went. It's both sad and hilarious what we have to do to keep our phones chilled.

I must not mastodon right... But I did reply there to no avail here... Anyway it does work with a USB a to USB c thru the phones USB c port. Not sure yet on battery implications
