Wal, which model caframo fan? I need to install a few in Peregrine and I was thinking of going with the Hella Turbos, but if you like the caframo... Andy
Andy - I have been using the cheapest Caframo, model 747. Mainly because that all I can get. They make others with grill enclosures, but I don't know if they move as much air. I also can't recall how it compares with the air flow of the Hella. It's all about moving air, and the Caframo definitely moves air. Like I said, I run fans 24x7, so burning them up isn't a reflection on the quality of the motor. The Caframo only pulls .5 amps at high speed, and that's important when on the hook. To grill or not to grill. Grills collect dust, and can make it hard to clean the blades. The fan without an enclosing grill must be securely mounted, because if you knock it over you'll burn out the motor. Duh. The Caframo without an enclosure also really hurts your head when you walk into it, or sit up in bed at 2 am. However, those blades are pretty soft and don't actually draw blood, and after the initial eff word I laugh because it's my own fault. Duh. The only real problem I have the non-enclosed fan is bees. Really. If a bee flies behind the fan and is sucked into the vortex, it usually gets smacked by the blade and then propelled at high velocity directly at me. Ticked off and ready to sting the first thing it hits. Wal
