Koolance 120x38mm fan (FAN-12038HBK)

I was looking at this Koolance fan, and it's listed specs are close to the Sanyo Denki fans (116cfm, 39db, 2600rpm, 6.3mmH20 pressure).

Has anyone ever used this Koolance fan, and how does it compare to other fans (such as Sanyo Denki, Panaflo) for CFM vs. noise.

Also, does it undervolt well, and what is the operating voltage range. Can it be brought to near silent using a fan controller.

Never ever trust the manufactures specs. Koolance come to mind as one who has lied through their teeth over the years.

Petra sells good stuff and looking at XS forums fan reviews will help you make a decision.

As a relativly experianced builder and I read a lot and stay informed, i don't see Koolance fans reviewed. Wonder why. I bet they are rebadged xxx anyway.

Yes the Koolance fans are variable speed fans and as all fans the faster they go the more noise they make. I for one have not found any of Koolance's claims to be false and have found their products to be quite reliable.
