Hey has anyone tried these ebay fans... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...33600

There cheap, thin, push up to 1550 cfm, and draw about 5.5 amps... I emailed the guy also and he says there is 6 month warranty on them also... What do you guys think?

1550cfm really isnt that much, especialy when the fan is used as a pusher fan.i have a permacool fan that blows 2850 cfms and draws 9.5 amps. its a 14" fan so it fits and covers a large portion of the radiator.for 95$ it wasnt a bad deal and keeps the engine heaps cooler than the fan i had on it before.

Well I was planning on running 2 of them, one always on and one switched... I'm hoping that'll keep it cool and won't have it sound like an airplane all the time..

I have 2 of those 10" fans but I was only able to get one to fit so far. I am using them as pullers. The fan comes on and stays on when I am stoped. If it is cool out it will cool the water off and turn off but if it is hot is will run as the temp gauge slowly goes towards the sky.

I'm running two of those, 12" as pushers on my condenser with no overheating problems. Both of them always on through the factory relays grounded. They are kinda loud, but you can't hear them over my open downpipe

Yeah I know, i'm really not a person to cheap out on things, but if there are people running these with no problems, then I'd like to save some money...
