Is there a difference between the 2 and 3 blade ecofans? We're heating a pretty large room.

I have a fairly large area to heat. I guess I just looked @ the physics; decided that the larger configuration to include 3 blades would be the answer. We are extremely pleased with our unit and it has served us for many years. The one that was reviewed was an unit for a friend.

Read my review.... but, then.... enjoy your ecofan... no matter how many blades it has....

circulates more air than a two blade, but the core the fan is on is bigger and abosorbs more heat so yes the bigger the better.

I believe there is, but my opinion is based on the comments I read before I purchased the 3 blade. It seemed the 2 blade purchasers were not happy, but the 3 blade purchasers were very happy. My room is 24 x 32 basement and I love the difference my fan has made.

I would go with the 110. The cost difference is fairly insignificant so I always try to go a little larger than the calculation calls for. These are great fans. I've bought quite a few for other people and have 2 in my house. Hope this helps.

I would also recommend the larger fan. I installed the 110cfm fan in our 10 x 12 bath and if works great.

To be honest, i don't know. Couldnt tell a big difference in my bill. I do not compare this to an air cooler though. Unless mine doesn't work properly, it is no different from any other fan to me. I had bought it because everyone was saying it was like an air cooler. I could of bought a cheaper fan the does the same thing. Just so you know.

3 by a large margin. Only get the 2 if you are space limit. The 3 is much more versatile.

I bought the 52 for my living and kitchen and the 42 for my bedrooms and the blades are different the smaller fans have a squarer blade I also like the 52 blades better they have a sleeker design then the 42 inch. Hope this helps

Dude, That's a representation of the size differences. One fan should be listed. lol

The 4930 cost more, is 5" smaller, and the controls are arranged differently. Other than that, I don't see much of a difference in the two. If you are looking for a model that will circulate the air in the room with some efficiency, keep it cool, and has simple to understand buttons, the cheaper of the two will work for you. I use mine in my masterbed room and that's a good 11' x 19'. Mine has kept my room well cooled during the hot summer months and keeps it cool. It works best in an area on the floor that it won't get knocked over by rowdy kids or out of control pets. Though my cats bumped me into mine and I knocked my over and no damage done. Works perfectly like the day I bought it. You just don't want to knock over any fan no matter what and place it on a firm level surface for best stability. Just my words of wisdom there, or call it the voice of experience. Save the extra cash and go for the model #4443 I'm sure you won't be terribly disappointed with the purchase.

Return the fan.... only one blade works on mine on cool but I use it mostly for exhaust so I'm not gonna go and return it since both blades work fine on exhaust

I use Eco mode for close-up heating - - when I'm sitting at the computer and just want to heat my immediate area. It doesn't force the heat out to the same extent as on high, so you can keep it closer to yourself (or whatever you want to be warmer). I don't think it makes sense to have it oscillate in Eco mode, since it defeats the purpose of lower heat for a smaller area.I also use Eco mode in my bedroom - - so I can keep the rest of the house even cooler - - so the fan doesn't alternate higher and lower, disturbing my sleep.

The Yardstash.com has a "Resources" link at the top. Scrolling to bottom of that page, there's a comparison chart of the 2 and 3. One difference not mentioned here is the tent material.

Not sure I can answer the comparison question. The fan we have is really nice. Love the remote. Have taken it with me to college and it is just perfect.

Just an FYI, there are 3 settings on this heater, Hi, Lo, & Eco. I have four of these types of heater this being one of them and I have a "Kill A Watt" meter that I have run test on all of them. This listing on this heater shows it has three wattages using the 1500w, 750w, and 500w. This is not true, and in the manufactures' specs (being fair to the manufacture) it says nothing about the Eco being 500w. I believe some one that was trying to sell this heater made up the 500w setting and some others read it and decided to add it to their description. It runs in only two wattages, Hi runs approximately 1240w, Lo runs about 870w and eco runs both Hi and Lo. How Eco works is a fixed setting of 68 degrees, when the temp in the room is 65 degrees or lower the heater will run at the Hi setting until it is within 2 degrees of the fixed setting then it kicks into Lo mode and runs at that setting until the 68 degree mark is reached. I personally have discovered there is no real use for the Eco setting since I like to run the heater on Lo mode (being the most economical) most of the time. Hope this help explain the heater, BTW after the entire test my show a cost of roughly $16.00 a month at my cost of $0.09 per KWH at 8 hours a day usage.

The air flow on the hands is by no means a must have feature. With the X2, the surface of the laptop keyboard is cool enough that my hand aren't noticing any heat difference. The larger fan of the X3 will cool your laptop a little bit more, but in my opinion not worth double the price of the X2.

As far as I remember it is the flow rate of the fan. The more expensive unit has a higher flow.

The G2 is second generation with EVGA's new ECO thermal control that adjusts the fan speed up or down depending on need plus some internal improvements like a superior vertical double layer main transformer that increases power output and supposedly better capacitors. If you have to have the latest, greatest or you are doing something that needs it go with the G2. If you are just looking to up your system for normal use like an added video card or two like I have, the G1 is well worth the price.

I must agree with other responses. The dipswitch settings (according to the manual) are pretty straight forward for one who understands the nomenclature. What I liked about the new board is the tighter control of burner and fan timing. The anticipator is more accurate.
