Wow very nice pictures!
The large room with many fans, what are the two ones om the front row with straight blades. Recent Indian fans? Where was that?
On those National controls is speed 1 the fastest like usual or it's like Indian fans with speeds in the right order?

On those National controls is speed 1 the fastest like usual or it's like Indian fans with speeds in the right order? those 2 fans.. they look like indian fans but i don't know what are they, i've seen the same fan in another place in the 90s, that was in a very old mosque i found while roaming in umm suqeim neighborhood (next to my neighborhood) speed 1 of national is always the slowest .. it goes as follows, (from slowest to fastest) off,1,2,3,4,5.. most capacitor-type and resistor-type regulators run from 1 (slowest) to 5 (fastest).. but transformer regulators (relite is the only exception i know) run from 5 (slowest) to 1 (fastest).. i've seen some relites running in opposite order

went to dhaid during eid holidays.. but i forgot my camera at home and my phone was almost out of memory but at least i was able to manage to get the video of my favorite SMC fans in my farm since i was alone there..
the first one produces some hinges, it's not from the fan motor.. the fan wobbles a bit and it's wobble causes the canopy to rub with the false ceiling
the second one has some strange hum at the lowest speed.. it was like this as long as i can remember
notice the blade structure, unlike the new SMC blades..
you may hear some switch sounds, i was searching for the correct switch in the first part and switching on the light in the second fan (first video) and preparing the regulator
i asked my grandpa how old is this farm almost 10 years ago and he told me the building was 30 years old (the one with the curvy SMC) and the other building was 20 years old (the one very similar to mine)
