Soldering creates fumes that are better left un-inhaled. If you're tired of holding your breath or "playing dodge the fumes" then this affordable and simple fume extractor is for you.
Best of all, it's made from parts you probably have laying around. The only specialty part that you may need to order is the activated carbon filter. This guide uses Hakko A1001 filters.

how long will the battery last? why not use a battery connector? so changing out the battery would be a lot easier.

Why not put the fan in the box?
Why not reduce the inlet opening to the size of a smoke filter and thus save a filter?
Why not indeed! I hear a v2 in the making :)
