THANKO released a new parasol that cools with a fan, “Folding Fumbrella” (6,980 yen), from THANKO brand. It will be available at the official online store, directly-managed stores, and e-commerce sites.
A three-bladed fan is mounted in the center of the inside of the umbrella. When the umbrella is open and the power button on the handle is pressed, the fan rotates to send air. The fan can be switched between two levels of intensity, and if the umbrella is closed while the blades are still spinning, the fan will automatically stop. USB recharging takes about 4.5 hours, and the fan can be used for about 3 hours in low mode.
It is also made of a fabric that blocks 98% of ultraviolet rays, and the inside is black to prevent sunburn caused by glare. It can be used on rainy days as well.
When in use, it is large at 60 cm in length and 106 cm in diameter. When folded, it is only 39 cm in length, making it easy to store and carry in a bag or other container.
