can this fan be used in the UK, England without having to power up or down?

I don't think so. The installation instructions that came with mine say: "All TD-MIXVENT series fans operate from a standard 120V 60Hz A.C electrical supply." And the wiring diagrams all have "120VAC 60Hz" labels on the inputs.

I don't know. All I know is that it's an excellent fan for me here in the U.S. Sorry I can't be of more help!

Any USB wall plug of any voltage will work. If you can charge your smartphone you can run this fan.

I don't think so. I live in CA and due to the changes in the weather I need one to be able to control the fan depend on the weather

I wouldn't see why not. This unit basically turns on and off the flow of electricity. I would think you could use this for any fan. I don't believe my fan is a Nutone.

I would think so if it will accept the power plug just like in a vehicle but I would check the voltage draw as does fan us 6 volts or straight 12 volt. The reason I say this is fan may not be able to reduce voltage itself for proper operation.

No,this fan we're using in our bedroom.I'm not sure that you couldn't use it outdoors.

Yes it is possible....all USB standards are 5 volts....and that's what these fans are wired as. If you need a regular 12v fan, they sell similar ones having a 12v input having typical computer molex connectors....then you need some kind of power supply that provides 12v instead (like all the lines of a computer power supply)....they sell a transformer that has an output of 12v for this purpose as well.

This fan is designed to be used inside a computer and therefore plugs into either a connector from the computer's power supply or perhaps directly onto the motherboard. You would not plug this into a USB outlet, and definitely not into house current.

The unit specs are wrong on the website. The spec sheet on the controller it self calls for 12 volts ac for the power input. But it will run on 12 volts DC. It's just a relay that turns on and off when a certain temp is reached. So a standard 12v fan should work just fine.

Negative... These units run on the standard NEMA/US AC current. The closest fan you are likely to fine would be a 12 volt automotive style with a cigarette outlet adapter in another brand.

You would need to connect the fan to an external motion sensor that would turn off the power to the fan and then turn it back on when sensing motion in the room. It is designed to run at a very low speed at all times and draws an insignificant amiunt of power. It would be less expensive if you purchased a different fan and operated it from the motion sensor, then you would only be paying for one motion sensing circuit.

it will work as a off and on power control, but not as a variable step controler such as needed for a multi speed device with an amendum such as a varible intensity light. if it is a single speed fan, with a single intensity llight that is controlled by a " pull chain " switch wired into the fans power connection, you are probably " O.K."

Yes, you can just use the fan. Please refer to the owner's manual for information.

I don't know. The fan comes with a 2 speed pull switch - High, low and off.

i bought one of these for my uncle. he used it in Hungary, it blew up. But UK is different. Maybe it would..

Westinghouse makes a similar product for European consumption that is a 240 volt model. You can find it on the UK web site for amazon.http://www.amazon.co.uk/Westinghouse-Frequency-Control-Ceiling-Fans/dp/B003U6SN14/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid;=1418057599&sr;=8-2&keywords=westinghouse+remoteTo the best of my knowledge the product is not available stateside.
