Standard 3 speed cooling fan converted to 6 speeds by means of a 1.5 uF capacitor and a bypass switch.
This is great on hot summer nights when the lowest speed is still too high when reading a newspaper or snoozing, and the draught may be annoying.
The splitter makes the extra 3 very low speeds available with no annoying extra noise when these fans are subjected to a dimmer switch.
Implementing cost is basically nil, One mains operated on off switch and a mains rated 1.5 uF capacitor.
The neon may be added to enhance the visual aspect of the fan.

  • maybe if he cleaned it he wold have better air flow and not worry about 3 higher speeds.

  • @sonidocuba84 The higher speeds are standard.

    I needed the 3 lower speeds.
