Happy New Years guys. Its 2016 and I'm finally about to graduate from college. Life is lit! I decided to start a new thread so lets get this started. 2016 is looking to be a good year. My first pickup of the year is a great haul. 3 Antique Brass Delta II's from a house that's going to be remodeled. The seller was relatively young but still a nice dude. They're from around 93-94. Haven't tested them yet, but I can already tell they're gonna be great. all three are 4/5 blades. Two are complete, and one is just missing the canopy. Going to buy light kits for each of them, just don't know what kind yet lol

Wow! What an awesome find to open the year with! How much did you get them for? The seller originally wanted 10 bucks for each. He also told me that one was missing the cap (thought he meant switch cap but meant the canopy). I was originally gonna buy the two completes but he offered all three for 20. In less than an hour I was at his place ?

So I recently went on a vacation to Puerto Rico for a week with my best friends. I went two years ago, but I went to a new place in San Juan this time so here's what I got. But since I got here, I went to a massive amount of bars and clubs so don't judge me that some of these pics are dark and are in a lot of bars lol. First, is when I got off the plane. Just some basic fans at their liquor shop We stayed at an AirBnb studio apartment in Condado. This was the fan that's in his apartment. It's like a combo of a Monte Carlo Studio, an Emerson Loft and an Emerson Heat fan. The speed pullchain was pulled out and only worked on one speed, and the light was hanging by one screw but still worked. I like it a lot Four of these modern SMCs at a restaurant down the street from the house Minka Aire Concept I's at a restaurant Quorum Daystars at another restaurant Hunter Captiva at a smoke shop A few KDK inustrials at a bar 4 Monte Carlo Micros at the same bar as the last KDK Brown painted HB Indusrials at a restaurant in Old San Juan Gunmetal KDK Inustrial at a restaurant The best fans I saw. Casablanca Delta IIs and Hunter Originals at a corner store HB Industrials at a bookstore HB Quick Connects at a bar Apparently a rare KDK at a hole in the wall restaurant Black HB Industrials at a bar HB Farmingtons at a restaurant back in Condado Another Farmington at a corner bar 6 Minka Aire Slipstreams at an outside bar/restaurant. I like these a lot 4 HB Industrials and Emerson Heat at a restaurant/bar in Isla Verde I guess this thing is called a Macro Air. It was in another bar 2 four blade SMCs at a bar near the University of Puerto Rico (UPR) Monte Carlo Studios at another bar near UPR HB Winward IVs at an outside bar Monte Carlo Studios at another bar 2 HB Industrials at a restaurant in El Yunque (the rainforest that grows around the Rio Grande) and KDK at the souvenir shop attached to the restaurant. The switch for the fans were behind the front desk HB Littletons installed OUTSIDE a restaurant

Put this Quorum Verde light kit on my Verde Panama. Thoughts? I would love to see this light in PB on a PB Panama!
HB Littletons installed OUTSIDE a restaurant That's a disaster waiting to happen.. but at least they're cheap.. Another instance of cool lighting.. Do we have someone else interested in fans? lol
I guess this thing is called a Macro Air. It was in another bar Looks ridiculous to me! The center looks like a Vornado knock-off with flimsy sheet metal attached to it.. did it actually move any air?
The exhaust fan is interesting..
6 Minka Aire Slipstreams at an outside bar/restaurant. I like these a lot Not my style fan, but I do like those lights!
Black HB Industrials at a bar HB Farmingtons at a restaurant back in Condado These are both pretty cool installs, though I could think of other fans I'd rather see
Apparently a rare KDK at a hole in the wall restaurant Sounds like a place I would enjoy, I love hole in the wall restaurants, they usually have the best food and the nicest people
The best fans I saw. Casablanca Delta IIs and Hunter Originals at a corner store Looks like the Casablancas were there first, and the Original was a replacement.. Shame to see it replaced but at least it was replaced with quality
4 Monte Carlo Micros at the same bar as the last KDK Some old spinners or the like would be absolutely perfect here
Quorum Daystars at another restaurant Not impressed with the fans, but this is a very cool install!

I'd wager its the same one as these, even though I don't see how the light goes on there..

Other than the great motor and nice looking switch housing and the stack motor and electronics and all that. These look sort of cheap to me. Like some 90's Encon. (Of course Encon fans have WAY worse quality sometimes though.)
