The fire display of that stove is so beautiful!
I really like these little fans -- that they don't require wiring, slow and stop as the stove cools, and now they're so inexpensive!

These Fans are super awesome just purchased one on the Web today! Getting ready just incase the power goes out again this Texas winter!

Thanks for sharing, I have a mate that has one over a year and he says it's great, so bought one today.

Good demo', any air circulation works,

I recently got one and was used, but turns the other way, is it ok, turns counter CW.

Would have been a better example of air energy created by using an incense stick. When they burn, they give off a scented smoke which is handy for seeing where air currents go. Placing this in different distances from the fan would have shown its efficiency.
On a windy day, they are great for finding drafts in your house or dwelling.

Been using a fan like this since 2009-10'ish, can't remember. But they work like a charm, and is a free cheap ass way to disperse heat for a one time payment. I use the Dual Fan version.

im really curious...will this work in conjunction with a clay pot heater? (one you use a tealight candle) if it rotates around 45 degree

It is not the motor that generaties electricity but the Thermo Electric Generator ( or TEG ) located in the middel that generates electricity if there is a difference between the upper and the bottom part.

question - we have log burner build into the wall and covered with tiles around. cant put anything on it. if l get a fan and put it just at the base, in front of it -would that work?

Cool video, do u get any rattling from the fan ? I was given one and once it gets up to temp it starts to rock and rattle 🙁

[topivaltanen]

Is this working in floor front of fireplace?

A bit late to the fan tread, I have one of these fans, my multi fuel stove provides water for my central heating, the water jacket surrounds the firebox, sides, back and top as a result when running at normal temperature the top of the stove does not reach the minimum temperature that makes the fan operate. are there any alternatives that would start operating at a lower temperature ?

Hi - do you think this would work with a gas stove? The stove definitely gets much hotter than radiators?

thanks

I think the extra injection of science from Jo made all the difference.

[carltaylor]

In fact the heat is converted into electrical energy, not kinetic energy. The electrical energy drives the electric motor which drives the fan. You need to put the fan at the back of the stove so that the air blows _over the top of the hot stove_ and heats up.

what brand of stove is it and what is a power rating/output? thank you for great videos

[keeponkeepinon]

Or, if you have a ceiling fan, turn it on and make sure it is pushing air down. Same thing.
