I keep burning up through these oscillating fans..in the 20+ yrs I've bought probably 30 fans
like every year, and granted they run 24/7 but all my vortex fans have lasted 15yrs..
I'm literally contemplating taking apart these broken fans, and Mcgyver'ing it, using the oscillating motor and simply attaching a hose from a 4" vortex to use that as my circulation.. since they don't break
I've tried damn near all brands
This particular stupid Honeywell fan lasted 6 months, the motor just wore out, the blade goes slower and slower. and it's not dirty or anything, wd-40 helps a tiny speck but not much.
The friggin blades aren't even dirty
Anybody have a good fan that's lasted them for years?
And shit, since i'm on the subject... a 600w ballast that doesn't burn out every two yrs would be nice too...
