    Ang iniingatan sa inverters ay yung switching power supply. Hangat maari disconnect if not being used. Unang tinatamaan rectifers then chain rxn mosfets and control components, mas mahal yung board sa unit at bihira marunong mag repair.

    My Standard fan stopped working after 1 year - I bought it at Shopee last July 2020. Disposable na pala fans ngayon or maybe the Standard I bought was fake. Anyway, I am going to replace it with an Asahi because the Asahi I bought for fat lab more or less 5 years ago it still working and that is on 12-16 hrs a day everyday

    I don't know which gives the best hangin? Thin or wide blades? 3, 4 or 5 blades? I am liking the retro design but P3k??? I am paying double for wood designed fan? Though I ONLY want a white fan.

    are you gonna buy from an online store again?
    are we sure your product is a legitimate product and not a look-alike product?
    perhaps the local physical store accepts online orders and delivers it to you? anson's... sm...

    ... why are they as expensive as anson's quoted price?

    fashion is expensive.

    btw,
    my favorite brand is still kdk.
    more expensive, but it has weathered time well enough for me.

    electric fan motors.
    despite the manyfold names out there,
    i suspect there are only a few manufacturers of fan motors.
    i suspect that many brands actually use the same motor from these few manufacturers...

    my bottom line,
    i suspect the fan 's tibay arises more from one's use or mis-use of it, rather than from the manufacturer's unique means of how it put the product together.

    Choose a fan that has local authorized service centers and things will get less frustrating when something breaks.... and mechanical things will break.

    We have had our Asahi tower fan for about a decade. When the oscillation mode stopped working, I brought it to the service center and they replaced the synchronous motor. I paid like P250, all-in. The only trouble for me was driving the fan there and picking it up 2 days later.

    We also have two Asahi rechargeable fans. They're maybe 8 years old and are on their third 6V lead-acid battery. I am thinking of modding them to take 2S2P or 2S3P 18650 batteries with a BMS to a) Increase the capacity from 4.5Ah to approx. 6.8Ah (2S2P) or 10.2Ah (2S3P), and b) Give it a longer lifespan, charging cycles, etc. Of course, this is just for fun.

    Other fans around the house; Hanabishi, KDK, Imarflex, and Vornado.

    For sure bumigay lang ang thermal fused ng mga yan pati mga rice cooker may ganyan din for safety maiwasan ang sunog kung may kakilala kang magaling kumalikot gagana ulit yan

    If the thermal fuse popped there is an overheating issue na. Replacing the fuse alone might just be a temporary

    Marami narin akong napalitan nyan yong iba nga rekta pero ayus naman wala pa namang nasusunog ang bahay ng mga kaibigan kong nag pagawa


    Sa aking kunting nalalaman bat napuputukan or pumupotok ang thermal fuse ay:

    1. biglang taas ng kuryente
    2. yong bearing/ bushing ng rotor ay gummy na so hirap ng umikot kaya ayun nag-iinit na kayat naputukan ng fuse
    3. pwedeng shorted na ang motor copper coil nya.
    4. pwede ring over used.

    Nako, I would never bypass the thermal fuse.

    That's ok if you're only testing the motor short-term, but you should install a new thermal fuse before bringing it back into service. Fans are mechanical and they wear out and are also prone to tipping over. If ever the bearings seize up or something accidentally obstructs the blade... meltdown. What if there's nobody around?

    I'm sure marami nang nasunog na bahay, possibly because of this 'fix'.
