You didnt give it, you traded it, after you damaged it trying to repair the switch cap. More lies... I didn't even try to repair the switch cap, it was BROKEN when I acquired it... quit trying to make me look bad because I never broke it. Do you really want me to screenshot our messages from AFTER I received the fan, where you told me about trying to glue it? What you ended up doing was gluing the switch cap and finial to the cord, clogging the finial with glue, and the cord was a knotted gluey mess.

I didn't glue it, I said you could possibly glue it. I never tried repairing it myself. I said I could have tried to do that.

Here is the Hunter Innova. All of the internal wiring and components were pretty much fried from the heat of the light bulbs, and the bearings were really bad anyways, so it got a full motor/electronics transplant. I've always got spare Hunter motors on hand so it wasn't really any problem, though it took more time than I would've liked. I eliminated the molex connector because it allowed the wires to be tucked further away from the bulbs, of course that makes it harder to fully disassemble the fan but now I shouldn't really have to since the blades can easily be removed with the arms still attached.

I like the Innova, especially in the brass finish, but white is cool, too! Too bad about the granite blades (or faux granite). And too bad about the design flaw about the Molex plug. I'll have to take note of that whenever I get a fan with a Molex plug connection. But glad it's all fixed and ready to go again! BTW, they're essentially still making a replica of this fan under the Anslee (46") and Anterro (46" and 52") names. Both fans look like the Innova, and are a modern take on it. I wish they made the Innova in larger sizes.

Video for this recently went up. Thanks to some of my old Menards clippings I was able to narrow it down to being Turn of the Century, I kinda had a hunch it was but it was nice to have confirmation. Unfortunately Menards used to not include model names in the adverts, so I really have no idea what it was called. I got one response in the Facebook group who thought it might be called Crystal, so that's what I'm going with for now. It's a bit of a love-hate relationship with this one. Normally I don't really care for fans of this style, Jerichos and Moonglows and such, they just hold little interest to me. But this much more unique combination of finishes for a classic style, slightly ornate fan has me much more intrigued. Reverse side of the blades is rosewood, I was taken aback by the more contemporary gloss black option so I opted to show it instead. Cleaned up really well and runs great. Original lower globes were missing so I put on what I thought matched best. Air movement is good, like most TOC fans it's actually quite nice for what it is.

Sooo I combined the Beacon Hill and Coastal Breeze Plus into one fan. Coastal Breeze Plus had some parts in less than optimal condition, Beacon Hill was great but the missing switch housing put me in a difficult spot. Since neither fan is uncommon or overly desirable, and I personally like the combo of white and nickel, I made them into the 'Beacon Breeze Plus'.

That's neat!!! I love "hybrids"... I have a "hybrid" San Marino/Delta II that's 3-speed, but came as 3-speed from the factory. It actually looks cool! Love nickel and white together!
