Is there a way to rig this for use as a tent ceiling fan?

Being a tent camper and a person who likes to make things work, I would say yes, you could. It would probably have to be hung upside down with a heavy grade string or a small rope around where the battery housing connects to the fan part. I hope this idea helps.

Sure Velcro, string, dbl faced tape, coat hanger, duct tape, stuff like that.

To be honest no this works better setting on table ,a stand or on the ground.

The base of the fan is pretty heavy with the batteries in it. I'm not sure there would be a good place to put a hook in it, so that the fan would be positioned right, to blow air downward in your tent.

Yes, i think it can be used as an exhaust fan and the air flow can be noticed at 2ft or a little more. Is not a súper strong airflow but can certainly feel it.

Not if you have an outlet. If there's no outlet then run an extension cord or have an electrician put in an outlet close to the location you wish to mount the fan.

No I don't think this would be a good way. If I was you and could get up into the attic I would nail or screw a 2x4, 2x6 or bigger between the ceiling joists, on the flat way. I even done this for all my ceiling fans, because the chains do get pulled, didn't want anything to come down. These work great for just a light or fan, even then I like to put wood up first to have a better hold. Sure hope this helps, ask more if need be. Rodney

I have 2 of these fans in a 4x4 tent with a 600watt light. One is to exhaust heat the other brings in fresh air. Its pretty windy in there moves some serious air the 4" fan I had prior worked during the winter but not during summer heat. This actually allows enough air flow to keep the tents temperature around 70 with cool air coming in

Probably. I mean, it is horizontal in its natural orientation in that the wings expand sideways. I assume you mean could you mount it so that the expansion wings are up and down. Yes, you could probably rig it that way. This is a great fan.

This unit is designed for flush mount installation. The base is too large to be adapted to a ceiling fan.

I haven't actually done it, but I don't see why not. Although I have to warn you that the power of this fan isn't like a normal one, it's very powerful.

Absolutely. The fan hangs from the ceiling support. This is not a flush mount fan.

I am sure you could rig up a way, but why would you want to?...the stock fan is amazing and probably 1/3 of the price of this cooler. Plus it's a 150mm fan that moves a ton of air and is quiet. I use an SP120 at my rear exhaust on my case in tandem with this cooler keeps my 4770k nice and cool.

it is made specifically to mount to a ceiling fan. It will not directly and neatly mount to the ceiling. Sorry

Not that I know of. I think a ceiling fan blowing the warm air towards the floor would just create a draft. Sorry

I'm sure you can. Just replace the given ones with concrete screws that are thick enough to hold the fan's weight. It is a really great fan...very powerful. Good luck!

No I wouldn't recommend that at all unless you can figure out a mounting method. The stand is really my only complaint - it's really cheap. I also bought a set of bulbs that do the same thing and put them in my ceiling fan. That worked awesome! Might be a solution to your needs. Light is good, stand sucks! :)

I am looking at my fan right now. It is obvious that if it were mounted on a sloping ceiling that sloped more than a tiny amount- say 5 degrees, the fan blades would hit the ceiling. You could, of course, mount it on a rod that dropped from the ceiling, but the rod would likely sway as the blades of the fan start to spin. Thus, you would have to brace the rod somehow, but doing so would ruin the aesthetics of the fan. The only solution I can think of would be to have a carpenter install a beam near the apex of the roof- kind of like a tie rod-- and mount your fan to that.

There is a clip on the top of the fan. Super easy assuming your tent has a loop or something to clip it to. I use it in my 2 person tent and it's pretty good, may be a little weak for a 3 person.
