What was the concept behind these fans, efficiency or cheapness?
The video quality looks phenomenal in 60 FPS

Thanks.. I also added the article page to the gallery.. My first video at 60fps seeing how I haven't uploaded since early this year and Youtube must have started allowing 60 fps videos, my camera that I've had for 2 years records at 60 fps.. Looks alot smoother and you don't see the frame rate like you do at 30 fps...

I've always found those fans very interesting. There was one for sale on eBay not too long ago (the motor and blades were in separate listings) and the seller stated that it had been used for a very long time. Who would ever actually use this noisemaker? Anyway love the video. Also how good is the airflow with this fan?

For something that spins slow and probably weights in at 5 lbs, 10 lbs at most.. It actually puts off air.. But it's not much compared to other fans.. Though I have seen newer Hampton Bay fans put off no air.. It's the same fan that was on eBay that you are talking about.. I mixed matched parts from my broken one to make it look better.. The bottom grill and 3 of the blade brackets are from the broken one I've had for years...

Oh, now that you've mentioned that this was the same fan, I kinda recall it having a non-polished canopy. Also I remember it came with a light kit, which I'm assuming you took off and used the switch cap from your other one.

The canopy lost it's shine due to where it was installed, and my original one too seeing how it was out in the garage for years.. Yes, and the switch housing cap too.. The seller thought it was a S.M.C. due to the light kit being an S.M.C...

Imagine a Vaulted ceiling Dual install of these I actually know a place that has something like this, although it's not a conventional vaulted ceiling, but it's not local to me so I cannot go take a picture of it. |
