I'm a Big FAN of Your HAT

A hat with a fan on the brim to keep you cool

1 motor,

1 fan,

1 baseball hat,

1 power switch,

1 hot glue gun,

1 AA battery pack,

OR you can use a charging board and a rechargeable battery BUT BE VERY CAREFUL!!! one you must not connect the leads or it could catch on fire or explode, Two you must match the voltage. Three the mAH of the battery must match or be higher than the mAH of the charging board or the same thing could happen to the battery also you would have to have a soldering iron and I am not responsible for anything that you may do by being dumb with batterys

Step one, If you want this permanent then you can solder the wires together, If not, Then just twist them. Anyways first plug in the glue gun unless you are soldering in which case start the soldering iron first, While that is heating insure that your components work to save you a lot of tears,

Wire together like in the schematic above, If you are using a AA battery pack use the first one if rechargeable battery use the second one. Also if you want the fan to go slower put a resisitor or pointometer between the switch and motor.

(optional if you have a soldering gun) you will want to solder before you glue or else you will set the hat on fire,

first find out which wire is positive + and which is negative - then first put (if you have it) heat shrink tubing on the wires before you solder the wires together or you can put hot glue on the joints, Now you can solder the negative of the battery and motor together, Then the positive of the battery to one of the ends of the switch and the positive of the motor to the middle pin of the switch (if you are using a rechargeable battery have wires from the battery going to the charging board BUT DO NOT SWITCH THE POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE!!!

now you need to decide where you want the battery to be, If you want it inside it will look cleaner and be more protected but you might feel it (I am fine because I have bushy hair) unless you use a flat Li-Ion cell,But that's for the rechargeable route anyways I will be putting mine inside do this without the battery's in the case,But if you are using the Li-Ion cell do it as fast as you can with a fan blowing on it and not a very hot gun also the charging board on the inside of the side with the port facing downwards,Next up is the motor, Now this is the hardest part because you need to ANGLE it down a bit facing inwards towards your face but still attached firmly well also not having the fan hitting the brim (or your face). It should be right about there in the pictures when you are holding it,

Thank you for reading my first instructable! I have spent a lot of time on this, so I hope you have a great time with this one and keep cool.
