Is the speed adjustable? I can hook it to a controller, but I don't want to burn it out quickly by running it slower.

Yes, you can adjust the speed with a controller. I did it and not problem so far.

The speed cannot be adjusted. The switch provided is cheaply made! Sometimes the unit will not turn off when you switch to the off position.

It has a 3 step. You could run a speed controler but with basic a understanding of electricity the motor may not run well or last long.. I personally removed the "stock" comptroller and wired in my own.

I don't use a speed controller for my setup, but I can tell you that this broke down on me in less than 2 months. If there's a way to check without buying anything new, just tell me and I'll respond back.

Universal. I am sure you could get a speed controller but I would not. Let it do its thing.

Yes, it is variable. You should buy a PMW controler to vary the speed. But be careful if you need to reverse the motor with a polarity reversing toggle switch. Put the motor leads on the toggle switch, not the power leads.

Yes, you can control the speed. Actually it is really fast. Not the greatest if you have to go up a hill. But my son love it and can't wait for the snow to go away here so he can use it more. Hope that helps! Best to you!

Yes, speed setting limits max speed. Don't know if it affects torque output as well. May be useful if you have a heavy trigger finger, control is good at any setting.

There are 5 settings on the controller included with the fan. Setting 5 is the slowest and it is pretty slow.

You can control the speed somewhat. My dog doesn't like it. My granddaughter chases him with it.

There is no adjustment. it's 1 speed only. There is not even an off switch.

It's 400cfm. And yes it works with adjustable controller. I have mine hooked up to a stepless controller. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000HQAVNI/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 During ssummer it runs 24/7 on max. During winter I was using a lower speed and timer but didn't had to use it much because upstairs was nice and warm without it. It really pays for its self in summer by pushing cold air up. I have it installed in the attic main which feeds the entire second floor. 400cfm x 24 hours = 5706000 cubic feet of air movement in one day.

Hey John, I don't think you can adjust the speed, but try to tighten the belt, see if that works. Otherwise this is just a manually balance cheaper version of a treadmill.

Yes. Changing the mode will allow for a "pulsating" mode and turning the knob will alter the speed.

You have to select which fan speed you want to run. It does not automatically adjust the fan speed.

no unfortunately you can not control that. There is speed settings but the settings on mine are all the same. It may just be a defect on mine however, I enjoy mine a lot and it doesn't create too much of a 'whirlwind'.

I set my fan on max and then removed the chains from it as this controller works great at controlling the speed of the fan from low to high. It has 4 speeds instead of the 3 most fans come with.
