*knock knock knock* penny *knock knock knock* penny *knock knock knock* penny!!!!

[MrFandude123]

what would happen if you put a wall control on this fan?

[dslgunner1977]

Do you know what year this fan is from? Also, do you know the size/diameter (looks like 52" maybe?)

Thanks.

[dslgunner1977]

I did enjoy this video...very neat fan! It is a bit noisy, so I probablywouldn't use it in a bedroom, but for a porch or garage it would be perfect. What I like most is the simplistic, basic design, and I also like the fact that it has 4 blades, rather than 5 (or 3, or 6). For some reason, a 4-blade fan is just more appealing to the eye...for me anyway :)

Thankyou for sharing this most unusual, and interesting fan.

I would probably sleep through this fan running lol. Ive seen a fan kinda similar and also had only 1 speed, and it was medium. and it wasnt noisy like that though lol

[Dafanmon2500]

Do you think you can make a video of it without the blades on? If you do I would really appereciate it if you could send it to me. Thanks! : )

[jonahmusto]

@Dafanmon2500 REMOVE ME FROM YOUR BLOCKLIST AND YOUR DISLIKE LIST NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't see one of these having an early failure but it's still very noisy and made of plastic.

[Kareensan]

how many inches is it

[1994chevy1]

hahaha nice

[EPISLON120]

my sister sez she needs noise (from a fan) to help her sleep. this might help her!

[yoheath66]

it also stops faster then the modern fans

[dj921005]

@yoheath66 i have a mid 90s fan that stops a little bit quicker than the other fans in my house because of the moisture and heat in the kitchen (i think)

[TimpBizkit]

I think I'll stick with good old brushless lol

[rodmauldin]

okay this fan, is really awesome! 5 out of 5 stars. but you know.. this fan would be less noisy when greased! :)

[italobambino43]

Sounds like an old Subway car!

[MegaKillerclowns]

awesome it would help me sleep

[bracdude181]

Gresse will make it more less noisey.

[kbhasikevin]

Put grease on the gears!!!

[Kylebels]

gears made it loud

[kristineurie44]

very loud

[FanOfVacuums2]

That fan is a Panama ceiling fan.  It's very rare today. It's not supposed to be that loud. Very cool fan.

[alarm610]

I like the fan

[pocketdrummer84]

can opener.

[zedextreme8177]

It sounds like the 220v fans we have here. All the fans here make that "zingzingzingzing" sound, whether gear driven or not.

I have to say that this one's pretty loud!

[MSNIMSM]

It may be a POS, but it is pretty cool.

Kinda reminds me of an old Fasco or Hunter.

[BlueStreak440]

This thing sounds like a "Roll-O-Plane" amusement ride. No wonder as to why it was so cheap, it has a yellow plastic motor housing! I kind of like it, though. What year is this fan from?

[12baumarobi]

I could sleep with this fan on just fine. I alredy have to sleep with noisry A/C, so i'd be used to it. Thanks for posting it I love it ! :D

[RRRMMM1111]

Yeah gears make quite a noise!

[kaiyoshi2243]

Holy crap! That's loud. heh, maybe it needs some grease on the gears?

I don't think I've ever seen a fan like this. Nice vid!

[scottyfixit]

It probably wasn't loud when it was new.... but gears wear to a noisy state..... interesting fan

[Dafanmon2500]

It sounds like a electric can opener. And can u make a vod of it with out the blades

[imthepatton]

jeeze why is it so noisy? does it need oil?

[kdramasrcool]

itsa chopping machine...ahaha

[djfjgfhgh]

love that fan,(i really love the horse shoe crackets

[GunsAllBlazing]

i wooonder why these kinds of fans didn't last very long....;)

[windturbine1983]

My Gosh! I wouldn't want to sleep with this fan on either! It sounds like a tornado siren, LOL!

[rghfghf]

oh my!!! no way for my bedroom,but still a A+ video

[Jean2291]

OMG that loud!? But unlike Firction Drive those does not appears to stop too fast. Is it true that the brass plated parts are ALL made of plastic? I think it was Christian that said that those sound like can opener and he's right. Ahhh! What size is it?

[JonasClark]

@Jean2291 I've examined one of these in person. The blades are about 4mm thick and feel very stiff, like some sort of deeply-grained plastic. But yes, the entire housing and blade arms are plastic.

[JustInn014]

Interesting fan. I like the sound it makes when it spins down.
