    Lowe's has the same Socket Air Light as the one you got from Menards. Dollar General has a more basic, smaller version, which has two remote control versions depending on the store(either CR2025 battery like the Fan Light, or the AAA batteries like many remote control ceiling fans.)

    I just ordered the Bell and Howell one in warm LED for 44 bucks. I'll be putting a porcelain socket in to replace my current bedroom light fixture. Will be handy in the coming summer months to have a fan.

    the note about the lumens reminded me of the time where my friend thought that watts measured the light output of the bulb. i had to explain to him what lumens are, and how you cannot, in fact, find an accurate formula which you can apply to every lightbulb to convert watt draw (i think that is the right term) to lumen output.

    i like the emson one the most just bc it looks the most like an actual ceiling fan

    Love this style of review! Thank you for this.
    I'm leaning towards the Bell & Howell. We have a small but open hallway with a bathroom on one end and my office (with mini split head) on the other, all in the same line of sight. Goal is to use the fan to circulate the cool air a little better from my office to the hallway/bathroom (and presumably the hotter air in cooler months, presuming I can reverse the direction of the fan) as the fan on the mini head is just okay. Do you think that would work for us? Also curious if you know about the longevity of the LED light? Thanks again!

      If airflow is the primary use, then go with the Bell & Howell or one of the 6 blade flower fans!
      I havent had one fail yet.

    Should be noted that while the extensions can be used for recessed sockets they can also be used to lower the light and or fan from the ceiling or the socket itself.
    While i wouldnt buy these for normal use, they could be handy using a backup battery with an inverter or a generator for power outages or even camping

      The Bell & Howell includes an extension

    Which one do you recommend which one is the most powerful

    • @dspiffy
      @dspiffy  6 місяців тому

      I cant recommend one specifically, it depends which features you need. The Bell & Howell is among the most powerful, so are the large 6 blade ones

    Pullchain sockets hopefully can justify the last three. Thats the only practical way to control individual ones on a circuit I'd presume.

    Which is best for a 14ft ceiling? I need air circulation but I also need useable light?

    • @dspiffy

      The Bell & Howell almost certainly

    The downfall Bell & Howelll, the fan sucks the air up into the ceiling, instead of shooting it down towards the person and there is no reverse switch. 🫤💯👎🏼

      This is definitely not true
