I'm planning on having a fan like this underneath blue tarp to make waves for a Halloween pirate theme. Does this have that type of power?

It does blow pretty hard. I'm not sure how it'll work with a tarp though because I don't know how thick it is.

This is an incredibly strong fan. I highly recommend it. This is simply a great product. But for that you might need a fan twice the size. Hard to say if it will do the job.

No it won't hurt the motor but I wouldn't purchase this blower. There is no power behind the motor. A regular box fan is better and cheaper.

Althogh I have not used other small fans, I think this fan has enough cooling power :) I can feel the wind over 50cm~70cm from the fan.

My husband does not remember, but it is probably a square wave - but we use it as a backup to a solar system and it would be corrected for that by the type of inverter we have on the system. The generator will power our whole 1200 sq ft house, including 3 split air conditioning units (trane brand). We have no problems with our electronics or ceiling fans when running the generator - but our inverter would take care of a problem.

No. This is a low power device, i.e. 2 Amps max, for small 120 VAC motors like overhead fans and such. I use it to control the speed of a small meat grinder, which it does well. It performs best with brush type motors and OK with small shaded pole type (as found in small appliances). A large house fan (e.g. 1 hp or so) like yours is a 240 VAC induction type motor which this kind of regulator will not work well on even if it could handle the power.

It may but I returned mine. I thought it was junk! I bought a Fantastic Fan! Well worth the extra money.

I'm sure it is but I don't run mine at that much power. My only complaint is the fan is very loud on these.

Yes. It's a pretty light, too. I already had a fan in place but needed a light. This worked very well.

No, and don't waist your time & money on it. It's a piece of junk. Unless you continuously wind it every 20 minutes, it never has enough power to do anything.

hi , i am presently using these fans as roof cavity and under floor ventilation, they are solar powered ,but require a solar regulator suitable for operating a load with out a battery. using these fans has stabilized moisture levels under the house and reduced movement , the roof fan has cool the roof cavity . So to answer your question as a ventilation/exstraction fan yes.

No the fan isn't strong enough for that. I had to buy another fan just for my use.

Seeing that people are talking about needing wind. I would think a powerful enough fan in the right position could work. Of course, that is just a theory.

As long as you have the right bracket to hold it down to board should be fine. Power. it just wires to board like old fan.

Yes! This fan is really nice. We use these to dress up vacant apartments to lease.

I don't remember, I think so- this fan stopped oscillating shortly after purchase. So beware

Yes, it could. Although would be pretty useless and really used for decorative purposes only. You would have to use largest power fan, you can get a hold of. Possibly could work, but see it more for looks then functionality. GL

You do not want to run it with a generator because it is worthless! It is the most worthless item I have ever purchased. You are bettert 0ff operating a fan. It does not perform well.
