On hot days use the RYOBI 18V ONE+ Compact Fan Kit as a cooling solution for areas such as camp sites, patios, and sheds. This kit includes a Fan, 2.0Ah Lithium Battery, and ONE+ Charger. The compact and lightweight design of the fan makes it easy to carry around and set up anywhere like a campsite or work area when you need good air circulation.
Connect the fan to a RYOBI ONE+ 4.0Ah battery and enjoy up to 12.5 hrs off a single charge. With an integrated rubber clamp, this fan can be secured on a flat surface up to 38mm in thickness. To change airflow direction, adjust the fan head vertically or horizontally.
No exaggeration at all. A loud sound doesn't have to be instantaneous or physically painful to be damaging. If you are in a repeatedly prolonged situation where you feel you need to raise your voice to be heard, then the noise you are trying to overcome will likely be at a level which can cause partial noise induced hearing loss. Given this is something you'd want to use for quite prolonged periods to keep you cool, I don't find it ideal that it's noticeably louder than your average desk fan (noted it's probably not designed to be used this way anyway).
And I do limit my time with earphones and be mindful with the volume when I can. At this time, most cases of hearing loss and/or tinnitus remain irreversible.
