Adding a 12V Ceiling Fan
I will be soon receiving a 12VDC brushless PM motor 36" ceiling fan for my TT. I have lived my whole life with ceiling fans running, my parents were always the type to turn up the thermostat and turn on fans and turn down the heat a bit and run the fans in reverse.
So my point is I am very accustomed to them.
While in my living area I am hot when the A/C is off and also when the heater is running. So I opted to buy a fan.
I have three lights on the ceiling that I seldom use, they run from near the entry to the rear. The one located in the middle is best in my opinion.
I wanted to mount the fan in place of the light, running the power wires across the ceiling, through a over head cabinet and down the wall a bit to the switch and then run the control wires back to the fan. Of course using exterior wiring molding and the like to hide the wires and also putting the switch in a junction box.
Has anyone done this before? The fan seller claims it uses no more than 1 amp (12w) so the existing wiring and circuit fuse (15 amp) should be fine.
