AC Infinity AXIAL 1238, Muffin Fan, 115V 120V AC 120mm x 38mm High Speed, for DIY Cooling Ventilation Exhaust Projects

First off, let me say that AC infinity has exceptional customer service. I had some concerns about my fan right around Christmas time, and they were very willing to assist me. You should have confidence in support buying this product. Now for the actual fan it’s self. Right out of the box, I can tell this is a strong fan. It boasts a heavier weight than most crappy usb fans because it’s made of metal, and I adore that. You would really have to try to break it. I have a mind to do a drop test Incase it ever came loose from its support, but I predict it would damage the floor!! It moves a lot of air, runs quiet, and has a versatile design. This sets the standard for a quality DIY fan. It’s offered at an exceptional price, and I doubt there are other options offered at this price point with this quality. So, if you are considering buying this to use for a mini grow room, attic ventilation, cooling, or any project that requires air flow, get it. I would go as far as to say you could use this to promote airflow in a living room. It moves a ton of air. The ONLY area that could be improved on is the plug. This is the only part of the fan that could potentially give out, however I’ve yet to see that happen. I even bent the prongs by trying to plugin the fan backwards, but after forcing it back in the right way, I got it working again. Exercise a bit of caution when plugging it in and out, and you will be set. Awesome product, would recommend.

Dig these 1238s a lot! Solid price, robust aluminum frame, mounting hardware, grill guards and power cord. I upgraded to a dual fan setup with speed control for a project when I thought one was enough, and that’s what I like about these too, very easy to upgrade and configure. I didn’t have to clip strip and heat shrink anything. They run so quiet and worked right out the box. I have other products of theirs and all just feel so premium. I feel like I need to make up projects so I had an excuse to get more to use haha. These fans at this price help so much for low budget diy projects. Listing the specs and everything also very helpful, will suggest to anyone in need of a fan for their project. I’m truly a fan… of these fans… 😅

I bought one of these to try an experiment-- my bathroom doesn't have an exhaust fan; could I create one that could be automated? First off, the fan is substantial-- that is a metal housing, with a metal grating (reversible), and solid household 110 lead (which is socketed at the fan, also). The fan fits well in a small window I have in that bathroom, and I was able to run the wire to a software-controllable smart outlet, and integrate the fan into scenes and verbal commands. I was also able to set up a rule to turn the fan off automatically after 30 minutes. The only two downmarks I have for the fan are that 1) it comes with only one grill-- meaning one side of the fan is going to be exposed and it WILL damage your fingers, 2) it's quite audible-- not hugely loud like a jet engine, but it's a high volume fan in a small form factor. You might want to think twice if you're planning on sleeping next to it. By contrast, I looked for vendors in China that might supply a similar fan. I did find an almost-identical seeming product and ordered a couple, but unfortunately, they are much closer to PC case fans-- 100% plastic, no reversible/removable grill, and while rated for 110, they provide fairly short, very thin leads that are embedded on the fan side. There wasn't that much of a cost difference.

The fan pushes a lot of air for this size fan. You can feel the breeze a few feet away. It is loud for its size, louder than bigger fans I have. I can hear this fan running from another room. Although the noise is easy to block out. I was running the fan outside of a cabinet, inside it would likely be quieter. The case around the fan is aluminum but the fan blade is plastic. The fan is symetrical, you can mount either way. They put a white sticker on the outside end of the fan center, so you see white rather than black. It does not appear to be easy to remove either. Fan sticker says made in China. Overall it is great, just a little loud for this size fan.

As described. Works perfectly.

今回は農業用ハウス内で使用する可搬型ダウントランスの冷却用ケースように購入しました。 まず、良好な点は『圧倒的風流』『AC電源で即稼働可能』、悪い点は『騒音』と『重い』です。しかし、悪い点に目をつぶれるほど『風流が強く』、総合的にコストパフォーマンスが高い製品です。 性能面:AC100～120vでダイレクトに作動するため、同サイズクラスのUSBファンより風流が別次元で高いが、その為ファンの騒音は大きいです。また本体の重量もありますが、構造は頑丈なので私は気にしません。AC100～120vでサクッと使える点も良いです。通常使用していないダウントランスの昇圧115vに差して使用していますのでAC100vのコンセントが空けておけます。(一般的な200v→100vダウントランスは大体115v✕2、100v✕2の出力が付いている)付属の電源コードはオンオフスイッチはありませんが、プラグ形状が接地側(W側)通常より縦に長く、接地、非接地同サイズのコンセントには刺さりません。極性がしっかり分かって使用出来るメリットと不便なデメリットでもありますが、昨今のAC2Pコンセントは接地側(W側)が大きいのが標準なので、使用法次第で不便な要素にはならないでしょう。 付属品等:ファン本体以外の付属品は、ACプラグコード(約80cm)✕１、ファンガード✕２、M4長ネジ✕４、M4ナット✕４、取扱説明書で、最低限必要な物は一式揃っており、そのまま組んでサクッと使用出来ます。輸送用の箱はシンプルでしたが緩衝用発泡材でキレイに仕切られており、品質が良い印象を受けました。 余談(耐久性等):カタログスペックでは耐久性が60000時間とされていますが、これだけは使用を継続していってみないと感想は出ませんね。約６年問題なく稼働しきったなら、費用対効果は十分という答えがでるでしょう。まあ、ある意味『軽快な稼働音』がするので、音がしなかったら「あれ？何かあったか？」と異常兆候が把握しやすいかも知れません。ダウントランスをオンに連動して冷却ケースのファンが起動するのはなかなか小気味良いです。私的にはDIY冥利に尽きます。 総合的な評価は星５です。風切り音はあるにしても性能に対するコストパフォーマンスが良いです。今後も問題点が無ければ、このブランドの製品は注目できますね… ※追記。使い勝手が良く工作もしやすいので、同製品をもう一つ購入しました。満足…(^-^)/

An excellent exhaust fan; compact and robust. Most importantly, it pulls the smoke out through my bedroom window quickly and effectively. Only downside is a mildly annoying noise, but this is more than offset by the high CFM and RPM the motor generates. Recommended.

El abanico viene bien empacado y completo con todo lo que ocupa para trabajar. Es del tamaño indicado y se instaló sin problemas. Trabaja bien, es muy silencioso y mueve MUCHO aire. Si me pudiera quejar de algo, es que es más poderoso de lo que esperaba y "sopla" más aire del que necesito, probablemente pude haber comprado un par de medidas más chico. (Pero esto es bueno, y no es culpa del fabricante, sino todo lo contrario). Excelente producto

Third time ordering these fans first two are still running like a charm and I needed another one for a project I am working on , these fans move a lot of air and there is a little noise from the fan blade turning but for what I am using these for it is not big deal , so if you are looking for a very well built fan that moves a lot of air look no further as this is the unit that you should buy , very happy with the way these perform and never had an issue with any of them , I would rate these fans 5 STAR all around.

私が購入した時は900円で少し不安でしたが、購入しました。届いて思ったのが作りがしっかりしてて良かったです！プラグは日本のと合わないので削る必要があります。いざ回してみると風量は十分で案外静音でした。 もう1個欲しくなったけど、値上がりしてるので下がったら2個目購入したいと思います笑
