- Reviewed in the United States on February 7, 2025Dig these 1238s a lot! Solid price, robust aluminum frame, mounting hardware, grill guards and power cord. I upgraded to a dual fan setup with speed control for a project when I thought one was enough, and that’s what I like about these too, very easy to upgrade and configure. I didn’t have to clip strip and heat shrink anything.
They run so quiet and worked right out the box. I have other products of theirs and all just feel so premium. I feel like I need to make up projects so I had an excuse to get more to use haha. These fans at this price help so much for low budget diy projects. Listing the specs and everything also very helpful, will suggest to anyone in need of a fan for their project. I’m truly a fan… of these fans… 😅
- Reviewed in the United States on January 12, 2020First off, let me say that AC infinity has exceptional customer service. I had some concerns about my fan right around Christmas time, and they were very willing to assist me. You should have confidence in support buying this product.
Now for the actual fan it’s self. Right out of the box, I can tell this is a strong fan. It boasts a heavier weight than most crappy usb fans because it’s made of metal, and I adore that. You would really have to try to break it. I have a mind to do a drop test Incase it ever came loose from its support, but I predict it would damage the floor!!
It moves a lot of air, runs quiet, and has a versatile design. This sets the standard for a quality DIY fan. It’s offered at an exceptional price, and I doubt there are other options offered at this price point with this quality. So, if you are considering buying this to use for a mini grow room, attic ventilation, cooling, or any project that requires air flow, get it. I would go as far as to say you could use this to promote airflow in a living room. It moves a ton of air.
The ONLY area that could be improved on is the plug. This is the only part of the fan that could potentially give out, however I’ve yet to see that happen. I even bent the prongs by trying to plugin the fan backwards, but after forcing it back in the right way, I got it working again.
Exercise a bit of caution when plugging it in and out, and you will be set. Awesome product, would recommend.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 28, 2018This fan exceeded my expectations, it really is aluminum and it really blows. I bought it to place inside a large industrial lathe cabinet that will contain a VFD drive. This fan will keep it all cool. It exceeds the air circulation levels required for my application, that makes it perfect.
It does make some noise, but that is fine as my large lathe makes a lot of noise so this fan will not ad much and thus is acceptable as far as noise is concerned.
I ordered a smaller version, model 9238, 92mm also that I will use to cool a DC variable speed drive placed inside a steel box for a smaller lathe.
This fan, the 1238, 120mm size blows will enough that I am planning on buying another one and making a stand for it so it can be placed where needed to blow smoke away from my 2 lathes and mill. Some times when you are cutting steel and using cutting oil it smokes and having a handy small fan on a magnetic stand that I can be placed where ever needed to move the smoke away, will be great.
If you need this fan, buy it. I give it my recommendation as a quality effective product.
I expect these fans to live long and work well for many years, but only time will tell.

- Reviewed in the United States on March 13, 2025I really like this fan, but I should have ordered it with the variable speed controller. I purchased this item without the speed controller and I found it was far too loud for my application. Then I ordered the speed controller which arrived today. Hooked it up. Now I have complete control and can modulate the speed and the noise. It’s cheaper when you buy them as a kit rather than separately.Just know that without the speed controller, this fan is very loud.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 24, 2024Wow ❣️ This little guy is amazing. It's mounted on one of two shed air vents.
I have to keep my handicapped mobility scooter and all terrain electric wheelchair in this shed. Lithium batteries must be kept cool.
Product draws the hot air to the outside even though it's so tiny.
Low noise. It's appearance is perfect. It draws the air from the outside through 2nd vent located 12' away.
My air conditioner is now able to run less & keep my handicapped medical devices cooler.
Fan is mounted to the vent opposite from the outdoor prevailing wind. Here in the desert that's the south wind. Yesterday was another 110° day and the shed was so much cooler. Its versatility is helpful. Though I won't need the product for 6 months each year, I am thrilled to have it for these hot AZ days and nights.
I highly recommend this little guy fan.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 26, 2025I have two of these fans mounted in the soffits of my shed (it has a flat roof) which I let run virtually all day for circulation. They fit perfectly in a 2x6/1x6 board (my soffits are 2x6s). For something this cheap, it is remarkable how well these work. Depending on the CFM model you buy, they are reasonably quiet. I have two different models, one low CFM and the other high, and the high one is pretty loud. But, not any louder than I would've expected...this is more of a warning. I have had the low CFM one for 2 years and it is still humming along fine. Highly recommend these.

kowloonReviewed in Japan on September 7, 20205.0 out of 5 stars 騒音を気にせずAC100~120vで大風流を望むなら、コストパフォーマンスが高い❗️
今回は農業用ハウス内で使用する可搬型ダウントランスの冷却用ケースように購入しました。
まず、良好な点は『圧倒的風流』『AC電源で即稼働可能』、悪い点は『騒音』と『重い』です。しかし、悪い点に目をつぶれるほど『風流が強く』、総合的にコストパフォーマンスが高い製品です。
性能面:AC100~120vでダイレクトに作動するため、同サイズクラスのUSBファンより風流が別次元で高いが、その為ファンの騒音は大きいです。また本体の重量もありますが、構造は頑丈なので私は気にしません。AC100~120vでサクッと使える点も良いです。通常使用していないダウントランスの昇圧115vに差して使用していますのでAC100vのコンセントが空けておけます。(一般的な200v→100vダウントランスは大体115v✕2、100v✕2の出力が付いている)付属の電源コードはオンオフスイッチはありませんが、プラグ形状が接地側(W側)通常より縦に長く、接地、非接地同サイズのコンセントには刺さりません。極性がしっかり分かって使用出来るメリットと不便なデメリットでもありますが、昨今のAC2Pコンセントは接地側(W側)が大きいのが標準なので、使用法次第で不便な要素にはならないでしょう。
付属品等:ファン本体以外の付属品は、ACプラグコード(約80cm)✕1、ファンガード✕2、M4長ネジ✕4、M4ナット✕4、取扱説明書で、最低限必要な物は一式揃っており、そのまま組んでサクッと使用出来ます。輸送用の箱はシンプルでしたが緩衝用発泡材でキレイに仕切られており、品質が良い印象を受けました。
余談(耐久性等):カタログスペックでは耐久性が60000時間とされていますが、これだけは使用を継続していってみないと感想は出ませんね。約6年問題なく稼働しきったなら、費用対効果は十分という答えがでるでしょう。まあ、ある意味『軽快な稼働音』がするので、音がしなかったら「あれ?何かあったか?」と異常兆候が把握しやすいかも知れません。ダウントランスをオンに連動して冷却ケースのファンが起動するのはなかなか小気味良いです。私的にはDIY冥利に尽きます。
総合的な評価は星5です。風切り音はあるにしても性能に対するコストパフォーマンスが良いです。今後も問題点が無ければ、このブランドの製品は注目できますね…
※追記。使い勝手が良く工作もしやすいので、同製品をもう一つ購入しました。満足…(^-^)/

sjalifeReviewed in Mexico on August 5, 20195.0 out of 5 stars Muy poderoso
El abanico viene bien empacado y completo con todo lo que ocupa para trabajar.
Es del tamaño indicado y se instaló sin problemas.
Trabaja bien, es muy silencioso y mueve MUCHO aire.
Si me pudiera quejar de algo, es que es más poderoso de lo que esperaba y "sopla" más aire del que necesito, probablemente pude haber comprado un par de medidas más chico. (Pero esto es bueno, y no es culpa del fabricante, sino todo lo contrario).
Excelente producto
Charles DupuisReviewed in Canada on March 13, 20175.0 out of 5 stars Great fans !!!!!
Third time ordering these fans first two are still running like a charm and I needed another one for a project I am working on , these fans move a lot of air and there is a little noise from the fan blade turning but for what I am using these for it is not big deal , so if you are looking for a very well built fan that moves a lot of air look no further as this is the unit that you should buy , very happy with the way these perform and never had an issue with any of them , I would rate these fans 5 STAR all around.

KGOReviewed in Japan on January 27, 20205.0 out of 5 stars 値下がりしたら2個目欲しい。
私が購入した時は900円で少し不安でしたが、購入しました。届いて思ったのが作りがしっかりしてて良かったです!プラグは日本のと合わないので削る必要があります。いざ回してみると風量は十分で案外静音でした。
もう1個欲しくなったけど、値上がりしてるので下がったら2個目購入したいと思います笑

Product Description
The heavy duty axial fan kit is designed for custom projects and as a replacement fan. The fan runs on 100 to 125V AC and contains everything needed to easily mount the fan and power it through a wall outlet. Includes a 4 foot power cord that can be easily attached to the fan's metal terminals and allows it to be powered through a wall outlet. The plug cord can also be cut and be converted into lead wires to be connected to a wired AC power source. Also includes two 120 millimeter metal fan guards and a mounting screw set. AC Infinity fans are certified by CE, UL, TUV, and RoHS.
Heavy Duty ConstructionThe fan's housing is constructed of die-cast aluminum painted black and able to perform well in harsh environments and withstand shocks. Its impeller and blades are molded with thermoplastic and meets UL 94 standards for resistance to flammability. Impedance protected motors contains windings that have a higher resistance to heat during a rotor lock. Containing long life dual ball bearings, the fans can be run continuously for 67,000 hours and be mounted in any direction.
ApplicationsThis high speed fan is suitable in applications where maximizing airflow is the primary objective and a louder noise level is tolerable. Popular uses include tanning beds, LED signs, server racks, industrial machinery, arcade systems, and more. Because this is a standard industrial size fan, it can be used to replace fans found in various Samsung and Eaton servers and UPS systems.
