12V RV Ceiling Fan w/ Wall Switch - 4 Speed - 42" Diameter - Brushed Nickel - White

Fan was a direct replacement. Very easy to install. Works perfectly!1665562

I would love to give this fan a 5-star rating, but unfortunately, it was not compatible with my Tiffin Phaeton RV and the existing wiring. There was nothing in the manual or the description that provided enough info to know before hand whether it would work. I gambled, and found that the fan requires a dedicated two-conductor wire to be in place (or run) from the fan to the switch mount.

My original HI/OFF/LOW switch is located in the nightstand which is in the slide out. While there are two wires in the ceiling (and two in the nightstand) the circuit is not dedicated and cannot be used to use the new switch.

I was able to install the new fan using the existing wiring, but without that dedicated pair, I had to stay with the original switch. That eliminated the speed and direction control (since there is no reverse switch on the new fan body). It's not the end of the world, since I can't remember a single time I reversed direction, or ever used anything other than HI.

In any case, make sure you have a dedicated pair of conductors that run to your intended switch location (along with constant +12V and (-) ground). If you do, it'll work great. If not, you may not be able to use the new switch.

On the upside, with the longer motor, the new fan sits about 3" lower from the ceiling. Combined with what looks to be a more aggressive pitch on the blades, the new fan moves more air than the old one. It's also significantly quieter. If that changes, I will amend my review.1413774

I've been using this consistently for a year now in my off-grid house in the Hawaiian rainforest & it's great! No rust, mold or drooping of the blades, which is all a huge problem here. Also, love the DC aspect since I'm off-grid! I'm so grateful this retailer would ship this to me, so few places will ship here, so it's hard to get what we need so THANK YOU etrailer!1023163

One year later: Still love it! Still in perfect condition and still doing a great job for us - mahalo!

The fan was received and installed with no issues. Although the control switch provided did not work. The switch was replaced by Keystone during the Montana Owners Rally in Goshen Indiana in September 2021. Fan has been operating satisfactorily since then.1297841

Fan is great. Works as described, etc. Instructions for the electrical connections could be clearer, especially the fan pigtail.884051

It works well. Found out by accident it doesnt take much power as I left it on for a couple of weeks and the batteries were not discharged. Along with being efficient, its easy on the eyes too.

We purchased this fan to replace the same exact one that started to make a loud clicking sound. This one worked great for about 2 months and then started making the same clicking noise. This fan will keep up up all night and let you get very little sleep. Do not buy this fan... Think I wasted $250-300 on this fancy 12v fan.1215529

This fan has a one year warranty through the manufacturer. I will have someone from LaSalle Bristol reach out to you.

The Fan works great. I just installed it today. The major problem I had was installing the switch. The instructions were not to helpful. The gentleman that did the install finally figured out the correct installation.
I would recommend to a friend but warn them about the switch installation.927772

The manufacture did not include an important item. Etrailer got right on it and took care of it.1278130

I'm giving the fan an Excellent rating although I am still in the process of installing it. I've bench-tested it and it appears to work well. It's a heavy-duty motor and the unit appears to be well designed and built. I'm stalling it in our home, to be powered by a modest 12V solar electrical system.1464110

Product more than met expectations and shipping was fast. Fan is super quiet and performance is perfect.1290216

A nice fan I don't like when it goes back to high speed when you turn it back on. Also, the bushing knocks when you turn it off. I think that's normal. Installing was a breeze, get it! LOL1534650

Looks good and simple to install. This is an addition to an older 5th wheel bedroom. Seems to move the air well despite the small size. Quiet and 4 speeds.766840

I received no instructions with the fan. I assembled it on my bench and powered it up with a battery I had available. It seems to be good. I will install in RV over the next few days.1606038

Fan was received looking as expected. Directions were very poorly written and barely legible which is what you get with Made in China. This was important as the fan came with a wall control for speed and reverse functions which we could not use as the existing fan contol was in a 4 gang RV switch plate. The wiring was a bit confusing and we just used trial and error to get it to work.1531988

Purchased this fan because it appeared to be the same model that had quit working. Arrived on time and literally was hanging and spinning with 25 minutes of the delivery. Thanks etrailer!1603415

This was just what I was looking for. I have run it for 7 hours on low speed like I intend to in my camper. It was silent and flowed plenty of air for sleeping. I used an old car battery that I had in the shed and it was still at 60% charge when I stopped it. Fit and finish are very good and everything was in the box with the exception of wire. I used some trailer light hook up twin lead that was left over. I would buy this again.1308874
