Fan wattage question
When we got our Rockwood Roo, it came with 3 of these fans. Anyone have any idea of the wattage that these take to run? I've replaced the incandescent bulbs with LEDs, but I have no idea the wattage of the fan itself.

- What are "these" fans? Make, model...
- Sorry, I didn't attach it properly.
- Interesting looking fan. Never saw one like it before. Is there any label on it stating fan voltage, current, or better yet, wattage??
- Hehe, yeah, that would make it easy, wouldn't it?
No, there's no wattage info. It's the light/fan that plugs into the overhead 12V sockets and hangs on the shepherd's pole on the bunk ends. - That's not exactly what I was guessing you had. Looks like a toy.
- Not sure of brand from picture, but Fastners Unlimited lists those at 1.3 amps or 15 watts. Not sure if that was for bulb or fan or both while running.
- I have these fan/light combos in my Kodiak. Thanks for the ide about replacing the bulbs. The unit gets very hot when the light is shining.
- You can boondock all weekend with those fans running. I have three, and fantastic fan running in my pup with a group 31 battery.
- It really depends on the battery and how much more your camper uses. But I get your point. Not all that much draw.
I'm just curious. I recently got an inverter generator to charge the batteries. It will run the AC, but that's only in emergencies. Lwiddis wrote:

Since this is posted in the Hybrid forum, these are common to all hybrids and popups.
They hang from the tent end support bar.
