Talking A functional ceiling fan!!

I hated the factory fan. Not only did it not move any air, it would strobe the LED down lights when on. The solution!!!









The Monte Carlo Colony II fan. It comes is a couple of different finishes. We bought the brushed nickel one. It should have 3/4 of an inch clearence from the dinette slide when traveling.

Ipuller put a white fan in his. Below is a pic of it.


Skiranch put a black fan in his. Below is a pic of it.



*********** UPDATE ***********
The fan blades do not clear the slide. As I did not consider that the slide raises several inches when pulled in. See pic below.


My cure was to place a towel over the slide trim and take a blade onto the top of the slide. When doing that it stayed in place on our travel. See below pic.


Conclusion, I do not regret buying the fan. It really moves air and does not strobe the lights.

Below is Juicesqueezer fan replacement. He used a larger fan and added an extension bar so that the blades are under the slide top when closed up.
