  • Well after many many years of looking I finally managed to find one of these 1980's Sanyo 12" oscillating table fans my Grandma had when I was a kid! Decided after having had it sit around for several months it was about time to go through it and give it the love it deserved! Hope you all enjoy! :)

      Sure is! I'm lucky enough to have found a lot of those across the last few years! Only a few left on my list! Thanks for Watching!

    Those are great fans. It's great to find a childhood fan. Yes, that material is called Perma Wick that conversion looks a lot better.
    With that felt in there it’s pretty much the same material that is in a lot of my older fans with the oil light bearings.

      They sure are! Yeah, there are still a few left that I'm after, but at this point I have almost all of them! :) Ohh man, you have no idea how well the oil wick conversions work. I've done it to so many of my fans now and the difference it makes is INSANE! Yeah it is very similar to the older fans, but honestly it might hold even more oil in it! I'm actually going to be doing the conversion to my recently acquired 14" Patton HV fan at some point in the near future! Thanks for Watching!

    I got one of those at a thrift store for $12 took it home cleaned it up and serviced it. It runs great, super quiet too.

    Front grill really spaced out like the first gen Galaxy, as well as the center piece if i'm not mistaken. Sanyo made the motors.

      Yeah they are! Sanyo was actually the OEM for all the Lasko / Galaxy fans the entire time! Thanks for Watching!

    I have a Sanyo fan like this 16 inch instead I got years ago from the owner, but metal clips broken and I had to use tiptoes for the grills, I have a blue one too featured on my channel I took home from a visit in canada.

    I have my friend one of these after I serviced and cleaned it. Got it for $7 and man it runs so smooth. My buddy uses it everyday and says he can barely hear it on low.

    I have a Westinghouse that if i run it more than 20 seconds it gets mega hot do you know how to fix this fault?🤔

    • @colin_5839
      @colin_5839  2 дня назад +1

      First off what model Westinghouse is it? Also we should figure out just how hot its getting and how much current it's drawing. If you don't already have one get an infared thermometer and a killawatt meter and let's take some measurements! Thanks for Watching!
