SKIL just welcomed two new SKIL jobsite fans into its MULTIVOLT family: SKIL MULTIVOLT 7 in. Jobsite Fan (FN0700D-00) and SKIL MULTIVOLT Clamp Fan (FN0400D-00). For those who don’t know, SKIL produces a lot of tools for homeowners and semipros. However, these new SKIL Jobsite Fans might start popping up on professional jobsites and workshops.
Both the new 7 in. Jobsite Fan and 4 in. Clamp Fan operate with brushless motors and run off SKIL’s PWRCORE™ Batteries plus offer a hybrid power option.
Let’s take a deeper look at each of SKIL Jobsite Fans.

SKIL Jobsite Fans Value
Regarding the SKIL 7 in. Jobsite Fan, Milwaukee sells a similar model available at The Home Depot for just shy of $90. However, in comparison, the Milwaukee model underperforms on airflow and only accepts Milwaukee M18 REDLITHIUM™ Batteries with no lower voltage battery flexibility. The SKIL 7 in. Jobsite Fan offers better power and more power flexibility, for a much cheaper price, especially when factoring in battery prices.
The SKIL MULTIVOLT Clamp Fan also prices fairly compared to other clamp fans. RYOBI has a comparable model available for $24.98 at The Home Depot. The RYOBI actually offers a great runtime, but has little info on its performance and durability. At only $29.99 the SKIL MULTIVOLT Clamp Fan is an affordable option, especially when considering its claimed performance and durability.
