Using a car fan does not damage the battery. The reasons are as follows: 1. When the vehicle is started, the car fan is powered by the engine, so using the fan during normal driving has no impact. 2. For the battery, the most damaging practices are leaving the headlights and air conditioning on when the car is turned off. Common habits that harm the battery include: 1. To save fuel, turning off the engine while waiting by the roadside and then continuing to use the air conditioning for cooling. This consumes a significant amount of power, leading to battery drain and shortening its lifespan. 2. Charging devices via USB cable after turning off the vehicle. This can cause the battery to lose charge. 3. Playing music through the car radio at high volume after turning off the engine. In general, most of the vehicle's electrical devices are powered by the battery when the engine is off, and prolonged high-volume music playback can lead to excessive battery drain.
