Any owner here of the Panasonic inline fans who also has the Can Max inline fan (B004C2IWIE) and is able to provide some comparative observations?

The panasonic is the most quiet inline fan I've ever bought. They're not kidding with the name whisper. I'm sure you'll be satisfied.

These fans aren't nearly as powerful but are the quietest in the market. All you hear is air moving. Those fans are way loud even with a dimmer attached bit necessary for high powered hids. I use this because I have an led setup that emits basically no heat.

Hi Joe, I have bought several of these types of fans at my place of business. I have them on constantly and have had no trouble. Might need to be cleaned after a while of use. The only reason for the price difference i can see is that one fan is a little bigger and throws more air faster at a higher rate . The smaller lasko's work well too but dont move as much air. So your application should be taken into affect. Hope this helps!

Suggest you contact Levitron. What is the max amprage for both of the fans versus the rating of the switch? This is some info you may need.

If someone else has not already answered, the cfm on high is just shy of 1700 and the motor is a sealed ball bearing type. I have had the motor apart to verify that. Do not disassemble it if the warranty is still valid. The fan cleans up easily with compressed air. My warranty has been over for some time now and it still runs like a champ.

Unfortunately, I cannot speak for the UX21A. I would like to purchase one, but have only purchased a UX21E (the first generation) so far. I haven't noticed any oddity with the fan on that version.

I found the manual on line. Page 2 Panasonic FV-08WQ1 WhisperWall 70 CFM Wall Mounted Fan: http://panasonicvu.buildingmedia.com/studyguides/WWall_FV-08WQ1.pdf

I'd take a look at mine but I had to throw it away after it broke. Honestly, who cares where it's made...it's not reliable. I bought a similiar-sized Lasko fan to replace it and it's still going strong.

You are pretty accurate, I love these fans because they move LOTS of air and I have been running it 24/7 for four months now with no problems. The negatives, they are loud and as you said there is not a significant difference between speeds; there IS a difference, but not from a quiet whisper to full throttle.

I sent this as a gift and my uncle loves it. I am not sure about a fan but here is a link to the owner's manual which might help you. http://useandcares.hamiltonbeach.com/files/840211000.pdfThank you and God bless!

They had a low profile model ... which I have ... that has a pancake motor. I looked at their website, and it appeard the line is changing. I would suggest calling Fan-tastic directly if you have questions. They have been very helpful in the past.

I am currently using the stock fan. At stock speeds my computer stays pretty cool, 15-20 C. When playing online games however, they go up to 40-45 which I guess isn't too bad. With higher settings on games/programs the fan then turns into something like a Bulldozer running over C4, extremely loud but does a pretty "Ok" job at keeping the CPU cool if it isn't put under anything over regular use stress. I would highly recommend getting a better fan if you have the money, but if not, you should be fine until you manage to get your hands on one.

(after my first comment) I now see the 2500 cfm fan uses an "efficient PSC motor"...and costs $10+$12=$22 more, so it is a special motor giving it high efficiency.(apparently larger blades too) Wiki says : "PSC motors (permanent-split capacitor) are frequently used in air handlers, blowers, and fans (including ceiling fans) and other cases where variable speeds are desired." ...or for improved efficiency apparently. So I now say "it's the special motor"..... I also see the numbers are misleading, so read all the details.. the "1500" moves 1300cfm for a 1850sf attic, and says 3.4 amp, but also below says 2.6 amp! the one I bought. The "1600" actually is a 1600 cfm fan so it says, for a 2400sf attic at 4.5 amp, and seems to be 15"x15". The "2500" relates not to the cfm, but to the 2500sf attic! only 100 more than the "1600" model... with amps supposedly at 2.1, but listed as 21"x21". good luck.

I have the nu3000 with the same load and no problems so far. The fan can get loud at times.

I'll assume the fan is quieter, but in both specs the fan seems to be the same. Old Model (the one I have) is 1700RPM, 29.75 dB(A) with a max airflow of 59.05CFM. This matches the manufactures site specs for the Quiet Edition.

The one I got booted up fine and was nice and quiet during idle on the desktop. But load up an intensive game, and the fan was very noticeable. I could hear it from outside the room, down the hall, and downstairs. I returned this M12II and got a Seasonic X-850 GOLD Seasonic X-850(SS-850KM3 Active PFC F3) 850W 80 Plus Gold ATX12V/EPS12V Power Supply instead, and have been happy with it for the last 2 years and counting.

No, I am sorry I do not. As I have had my fan for no more than 4-5 months, it is still functioning without issue. Best of luck to you!
