Hello Holders of all Knowledge, I'm looking for info on 12v fans. I don't usually go places where I can access power so air con is generally not an option. I' sure there is something on here about them but when i did a search it brought up 30 pages Has anyone got any installed in their vans? Cheers Donna

G'day Donna,
I too did a search of this forum, and couldn't find any specific info about 12V fans. I think you'd be better off Googling '12v fan'. There are plenty of results that you can read through. Look for the results relating to the Caravaners Forum - there should be some useful info in those threads.
cheers, Al.

The sirroco fans are the go by all accounts, thy are quiet, have a timer on them and only draw 0.34 amps going flat out. You could run it all night and not hurt your battery. They are pricey but you get what you pay for. I'll be getting one or two for my van before Summer.

For my recent trip down the red centre in the middle of summer I took several cheap chinese 12V fans (from repco) with us and they were quite alright. They had big peg-style clips so you can hang them up pretty easily. I bought a spare with us, which was great cos one of the fans stopped working on the trip. The major downside with small cheap fans are that they are quite noisy. But this wasnt a problem for me and the family.
BTW I did research fans quite a bit before my trip. Posts on other forums recommended buying a high quality 12V fan (which cost over $150!) because they are quieter. But I couldnt bring myself to pay so much for a fan! I don't regret my decision to buy the small cheapo fans.
