Resurrection of dead fan motors XD

[Tais]

i finally found a workshop where ceiling fans are rewinded and brought back to life for a reasonable price, before i found through help of others but they were too expensive (400, 500 dirhans each...) since winding here are done manually..

so far i took my damaged OX ceiling fan for rewinding, it has been completely rewinded yesterday!! i was charged 180 dirhams for it which is definitely worth for a chunky powerful old fan..

i also took my chinese-made big SMC motor (1989) but the worker rejected it and kept telling they are available for a cheaper price... it was said to cost 150 dhs for rewinding whereas the cheap NIB ones are sold for 120 dhs... i decided to ditch the idea of rewinding the SMCs as i wasn't in the mood to explain since the worker won't understand

after this fan, i will go for my damaged ABC, xpelair GX6 and probably crompton parkinson to be repaired

when i get the fan back, i will post the pics

Got the fan and tested it.... it was worth the winding cost!!! The fan is ultra quiet, almost as fast and powerful as the other ox fan.. i didn't check the heating rate yet

Sounds like you got a good deal! Glad it runs better now. ;D
