Manufactured by alcopanda, this accessory aims to provide a solution to common issues faced by VR users such as fogging of lenses and discomfort due to heat.
Product Description
The VR Cooling Fan for Oculus Quest 2 is designed to effectively relieve fogging by accelerating air circulation, thus keeping the user's face cooler and reducing sweat. It features a 3-speed fan for different types of game modes and is powered by two built-in 800mAh batteries that can last from 3-8 hours depending on usage. The fan also doubles as a small emergency charger for the Oculus/Meta Quest2, extending the VR goggles' life by 30 minutes.

Consensus Review
The VR Cooling Fan for Oculus Quest 2 has received mixed reviews from users. Many users have praised the product for its effectiveness in preventing lens fogging and keeping the face cool during intense gaming sessions. The fan's quiet operation and the comfort provided by the face cushion have also been highlighted positively.
However, some users have reported that the fan can cause dry eyes, especially if the eyes are already dry before using the fan. A few users have also mentioned that the fan's noise can be bothersome, despite the manufacturer's claim of a quiet operation.
Another issue raised by users is the precision fit required for glasses wearers. While the fan can accommodate glasses, it requires a precise fit, which may not be comfortable for all users.
Despite these issues, many users have found the fan to be a valuable addition to their VR gaming setup, with some even calling it a "Quest saver".
