MOSTPLUS Black Universal Electric Radiator Slim Fan Push/Pull 12V + Mounting Kit (10 Inch)

While ripping my backhoe apart this spring/summer, I came across the heater core ( bit leaky) and a completely seized fan that provides heat for the cab. Now I can fix just about anything, but this was just a corroded piece of solid metal. Replacement OEM parts are just off-the-charts expensive.This fan was the perfect size. I had to do minimal changes to the heater core assembly. It is a DC motor, so simple polarity reversal changes air direction.As this is designed to cool a radiator, I figured that it would have sufficient airflow to run the heater core. This definitely appears to be the case.Plastic might seem a negative, as far as construction, but it does not rust. I did make some repairs to the heater core (there were micro leaks) and obvious signs of antifreeze all over the place. The OEM fan, a steel (all over) piece of gear, was built for industrial equipment. It is about 34 years old.Current utilization was fine (near the same current as the OEM was rated). The fan speed switch on the dashboard appears to alter fan speed just fine.Nothing but happy with this purchase. Saved me a boatload of money, it was shipped quickly, and did exactly what I needed it to do. I will now have a heated cab...Yeah!

First off I bought a 2x 12inch fan, 1x 16inch fan. The 16 inch fan is 3 years old and runs about 15 hours a day under 95f+ temps. It draws about 4amps on start up and 2.5ish running in a pusher setup to vent heat in a crawlspace that gets pretty hot here in sc in the summer. I have had zero problems with this unit and it still is going strong like the day i bought it. I have to mention I'm not sure how they came up with the cfm ratings. The 16 inch fan moves 1850cfm of air. The 12inch fans move 1500cfm of air. They draw 3.6 amps on startup. And 2.1amps running up to speed. I have this exactly mapped out cause of the project it is attached to. I used the two 12inch fans to cool off a genarator cabinet for are house. They run in nasty weather and in hurricanes to be exact. 3 hurricanes later they still work like the day i bought them. The only reason I am now buying a 3rd 12inch fan is my neighbors fans keep eating dirt in hit cabinet for his genarator. He asked me to buy him one cause he is so impressed how long mine lasted! My only complaint about these fans are if you use them as a puller. The motor will run about 110f or more temps. The way the fan pulls it flows right past the motor but does not really make contact enough to cool. If you use them as a pusher. Air comes toward the metal surface of your motor and stays around 90f or less even when it's brutally hot here in the summer. For a car i dont think this really matters since the fans are cooled by air as you drive around. Great fan for projects and could see them lasting a long time for there intended use as well. Ball bearings in these are sealed and seem to be staying nice and smooth even in are salt air and nasty weather! So anyone that likes to tinker I think you will be very happy with your choice on buying this fan.

The fan seems to work so far. It’s being used as an exhaust fan for my tool shed. I have it running off a 100w solar panel. Out the box it’s wired to pull the air through the open side and out towards the grill. If your looking at it with the open side to you it’s spinning clockwise. I needed it to pull the air from the grill side and out the open side. So first I reversed polarity and it was now spinning counter clockwise but the fan blades are directional meaning they push in one direction. Luckily you can take the blades off from the single nut in the middle and flip the blades around. After doing so I had the air pushing out the open side. From the pic you can see how I have it mounted to the inside of my shed blowing air outward. I was worried about over voltage so I got a 12volt 6amp voltage regulator to go between the panel and the fan. Can see that in the second pic. It seems to work good, even when it’s cloudy the fan was running at a nice low speed. Just so you don’t make the mistake I did, I read the directions for the voltage regulator after installing everything and it clearly notes not to use with solar or turbines. I’m not to sure how long this setup will last but will keep this review updated if anything changes. Got 2 of these fans for $35. This is half the price of the competitor selling the same thing marketed as a solar exhaust fan.

I installed this unit on a 1959 Ford Galaxie with a non-original radiator (the original radiator might've made mounting the fan more difficult, as those often had less space between the cooling fins, making it tougher to insert the zip-tie mounts). Installed really easily, although the mounting system is odd: the four zip-tie pieces are generic and obviously are not made for the special slotted mounts around the fan's perimeter. Those slots should fit zip-ties with specially-molded ends, but the ties supplied with the fan don't have the molded ends. I just drilled four holes in the frame, zipped everything together, and it works great. As others have mentioned, there's no harness beyond the wiring's plug-and-socket connectors (which are fairly generic and can easily accept similar connectors). And figuring out which wire is positive and negative--to switch the fan's direction--is complete trial and error. But hey, the thing seems to pull lots of air, so it's just what I needed.

I ordered the dual 7 inch fans for my LS swapped S10 and they perform fine without a shroud. They don't pull heavy amps (25-30amp) and cool the rad off rather quickly. Haven't gotten to rip the truck on 95°f days yet but I'm confident in these. Price is right and you could easily make a shroud for these with the plastic mounting tabs they have, though they don't clip in but hey they are Chinese fans what do you expect?
