I really don't get the point in putting a thermostat on a fan (not a heater or an AC unit, but a regular fan) since it doesn't really seem to do anything except cut/deprive the fan of power when the thermostat is set below a certain point like it does with modern fan-forced heaters.

I like these Reversibles, because the blades are symmetrical. They can spin clockwise and counterclockwise, and they'll look the same either way, they won't look weird, and you can't tell the difference between the two the way they are made.

Is there a grille on the back of that thing? There should be. Why not put the fan in an actual window to see it working in its proper environment? It would be easier to film.

@HuskyDog88 4 ай бұрын
Dude, I like how you showed the low, medium, and high speeds of the fan both in regular fan mode and in exhaust mode. It would have been better if you put this in an actual window to test it out. It is a window fan, after all. This way you wouldn't have to worry about holding it to keep it from rattling while it's in operation. How come there is no grill on the back? A bird might crash into it and get hurt or killed by the blades and damage the fan while it's on.
