Awesome fans!!! My 48" crompton parkinson high efficiency looks a bit different, is the canopy original to the fan?
I remember seeing CG auras in srinagar in a restaurant

the canopy is original to the fan. what is different about your fan ? the motor or the canopy ?
As for CG auras, a lot of cottage industries in india have tried to clone it.

Thanks for posting pictures of your fans. You got a new camera or a new phone?
Is the Crompton Greaves High Breeze a late 1980's model?
Those Crompton Parkinson High Efficiency must be very old for using the pointed tipped blades. It's the same blades used on the Ball fans. Do you know their age?
Yes it's true that they are a lot of copies of Crompton Greaves Aura. A very poular design in India.
You could at least clean your fans. They would already look better once cleaned.

My cromptom parkinson had no canopies, blades look a bit different and the downrod hook also looks different Thanks for posting pictures of your fans. You got a new camera or a new phone?

Tais is right, the cg high breeze is from the late 80s. the CP hi efficiency fans are terribly old, probably from the 1950s or so. all that i know about them is that they were bought by my grandad, when he himself was young. The CG aura is however not a good choice. they are terribly weak with a very low service life.

I love this fan! The canopies somehow remind me of GEC and orient at the same time!
The fan also looks unusual and powerful, I love it!!

Very cool fan! It does have obvious details similar to some GEC (the blades) and to much older Orient fans (the canopies). The motor would be comparable to a Thai Sunwindy.
The mystery of the odd Cool Home wall control found in Australia is solved.

the motor is shot on the aura? The motor is working but the speed has gone done like anything, and replacing capacitors does not help. the blades are bent, and this bending is affecting the air flow, even when the motor runs at its highest speed. besides with age, the fan is falling apart. if you look at the photo properly, you will see that the blade on the left is missing its decorative medalion. that thing just fell off while the fan was being cleaned, some few years ago.
