RecPro RV Solar Ventilation Fan | Solar Powered Ceiling Vent with Fan | For RV, Marine, Camper, Shed, Trailer (Black)

I put this solar vent fan on the front top of this west-facing storage shed in the picture. This morning at 9:30, with the sun behind clouds and over to the south east of the sky, the solar fan was spinning like a champ - without any direct sunlight on it. I’m not sure why other reviewers are saying it only works in direct sunlight; absolutely not my experience. I sealed up all the openings on this shed and then cut two 4x4” ports on the bottom back wall of the shed, which I covered with fine mesh screen. The vent fan is completely venting the air in the shed. Very good product.

Very easy to install, the solar panel looks like it’s well mounted and I didn’t feel the need to adhere it any more to the housing.Plastic will deteriorate in the so cal sun regardless if this is a regular cap or solar fan cap. I will be happy to get a couple of years out of it if we can.

Does the job, works fine. Only down side is that it needs direct sun light. At night it does nothing. Would be willing to spend more if it had a small battery to keep it going. Overall great fan.

Don’t bother…. Simply low quality junk. Extremely low power, it will spin if in direct sun but not enough to accomplish anything. If you are trying to remove a smell, you are looking at the wrong fix. The black tank system is not designed to allow air flow…. Just pressure to escape making this even more is a waste of money.

The media could not be loaded. Requires a little bit of modification to fit, but works as advertised, low noise level

Worked great for about a week. After it quit working I removed it and found the fan blade had slid down the motor shaft and jammed against the vent pipe, I pushed it back on and it slid back down a day or 2 later. The fan blade will not stay in position on the motor shaft.

Just what I needed to fix the vent whened right on easy to do.

These are a must to pull away the smell from the holding tanks on any RV. We have installed on both a Class C and a 5th wheel. They have a tiny solar powered fan that runs rather than the caps the factory usually installs. The fan aides in pulling that rancid air out of your system and away from the home on wheels.
