Uncountables

Can I use " It provides you with a constant wind"? or, should it be "It provides you with constant winds"?

I know that indefinite article a/an is prohibited to use with uncountables, so can anyone provide me with a list of uncountable nouns with the use of something like a........of (uncountable)?

What are you speaking of? A fan? It provides you with a constant breeze.
