Stus-List Cabin fans

One of my winter projects is to install a few cabin fans to keep cool on those warm summer days and circulate air on those cool ones. Has anyone recommendations? I'm interested in quiet and economy of battery draw. Andy C&C 40 Peregrine Andrew Burton 61 W Narragansett Newport, RI USA02840

Stus-List Cabin fans

I have two Caframos and like them. Mount them with the add on clips and plug them in via cigarette lighter plug. Stow them when not in use. Dennis C. Sent from my iPhone > On Jul 21, 2014, at 5:37 PM, Bill Bina via CnC-List > wrote: > > I recently added a Caframo Bora. It does a great job

Forgot to add that the swivel and tilt capability allows you to point the air stream where you want it. Dennis C. > > From: Dennis C. >To: "cnc-list@cnc-list.com" >Sent: Wednesday, January 8, 2014 12:11 PM >Subject: Re: Stus-Lis

Re: Stus-List Cabin fans

I've got the Caframos that David linked to. I installed them this past season and I really like them, they are quiet and move a lot of air. When I did my research they came very highly recommended. The only thing I don't like is that they're exposed. On my 32 that can be a bit of a problem when get

Re: Stus-List Cabin fans

I have 3 Caframos, which often run 24x7. I seem to burn them up in about a year, which makes them pretty expensive. They do move a lot of air. I have one of those nylon hammocks above my berth, full of cookies, nuts and potato chips, and suspend the fans from the mesh. When on the hook they

Caframo's seem to live substantially longer than others, and combine low draw with excessive amounts of quiet compared to many competitors. I've had some fans that lasted less than a week. If Wally is frequently running his 24/7 and they last a year, I'd call that exceptional service life for a

Re: Stus-List Cabin fans

I've got 9 of the top end Caframos on board Bojangles. I've probably replaced them all at least once since 2009, so not cheap. They are nice though, and when I had some issues with them, they FedEx'd half a dozen of them to me in Grenada at no cost to me, which was nice. They've also improved th

Yeah, my other Caframo is on a clip and I have a 10 foot cigarette lighter extension cord. I even use it in the cockpit on hot windless days. It's the model with no cage around the blade. I think it must be 10 years old by now. It has been used a lot, and shows no

Thanks, Wal. With you, David, and Dennis, among others, all suggesting the Caframos it's a pretty easy decision. Bees hitting the fan...what an odd problem to have. Hope the bees are buzzing elsewhere and the sun is shining on you. Andy C&C 40 Peregrine Andrew Burton 61 W Narragansett Newport
