[VAC] Re: Fw: Fantastic Fan -- Stupid question



The problem is with getting at the Controls of the FV, like the speed and the Crank
mechnism which are located differently than where your stock ones are.

As far as the fan speed control. I would just set it to something and then use a wall
switch to trun it on/off.

The crank is another matter.  You could construct an intermediate spacer that could
be folded down, or slid out of the way for getting at the controls and still maintain
the lighting fixture.  This counld also allow for more airflow around the edges above
the light fixture as well.

Just some thoughts.  I cleaned all my light fixtures and installed new bulbs (Still
1157's But I could also throw some flourecents in some time in the future)
throughout. The warm yellow light makes things very cozy inside or our trailer.

If you do swap out your lighting fixtures I would be interested in purchacing them
from you for spares or possible additions to my trailer.
