Can Fans and 110V

[Midget]

Was looking at Can fans (the brand) and in particular their centrifugal fans...

 

I see that they are running on 110V..... I know some stores here in OZ stock them. Does anyone know if they are able to be run here on 240V...

 

 

I was undertheimpression a convertor needed to be used...

 

 

 

cheers stoners....

I've got a 125mm canfan rs

 

Just plug it straight into the wall, now I know nothing about voltage etc. hope that helps

If u plug a 110 into 240 it will fry it real quick.

 

U will need a power convertor to run them unless it all ready has a 110-240v rating...

Well my canfan has been running for about 2 and a half years non stop, ozzy says it would blow up if connected straight into 240, maybe they make em for aussie customers?

yeah... possibly....

 

 

Will send some emails around and find out...

 

still researching fans and filters and brands.... that for me is the most important as odour needs to be kept down...

 

Will report back if I get word from anyone..

[Frank Reynolds]

Cool mate, i've been using can fans and filters worked great for me

[Faith]

I use a can rs 125 and I think its like ozzy mentioned (110-240 or something...I had a look at google but it seems strange all hyge shops aren't displayed?
