Fan-tastic vent owners manual

So close that I'd say it's a toss up, really. You will not go wrong getting either one, and you shouldn't look back or second-guess in either case. The La Crosse chargers are probably a little easier to set up less pushing of buttons , and you have to be a little more focused and careful with the Maha to ensure you are setting it up like you want, but really and truly they are both equally easy, and equally tedious.

My main point in mentioning it above is that the chargers that come with Eneloops, or the "fast" or "minute" chargers you can guy at Walmart and other retail outlets, are the worst chargers you can get for batteries.

You get what you pay for. I carry in the truck the Intellicharger i4 mainly for , , and Li-Ions and the Maha. The La Crosse is at the house for anyone there to use, since it's a little easier for someone not obsessed with the various minutiae of batteries to use. At the moment, the Maha is also at the house. I left it there the last time I was home. Fortunately the Intellicharger is an excellent substitute for the Maha or the La Crosse.

The reviews at Amazon are good and informative, but some of the most impressive ones especially that "NLee the Engineer" gentleman can be misleading or incorrect about some important things. He reviews and recommends, for example, the AccuPower charger as being just as good as the La Crosse, only about half the price. It is indeed a La Crosse knockoff, using the same controller, and it's very similar, but the difference are much more substantial than the minor difference between the Maha and La Crosse it's four channels at once, not independent channels as it might appear.

Don't be tempted to get the AccuPower, you'll get what you pay for. If you want the real anal lowdown on chargers, read Candlepower Forums. Those people are just freaks many of them are electrical engineers and experts in their fields about batteries, flashlights, LEDs and all things candlepower related, and will often do more thorough and exhaustive repeated testing than the manufacturers perform.

Most of the reviews are incredibly detailed. When the Candlepower Forums folks sneeze, manufacturers wipe their own noses.

They're that influential. Manufacturers have had to change their own published specs. They were the ones to identify, diagnose and provide the solution for the overheating problem of the early La Crosse chargers, for example, which La Crosse then implemented exactly in subsequent chargers.

My Fantastic is in its tenth year trouble free. Fan-Tastic Vent will exchange the air in your vehicle in minutes. Cooking smoke and unpleasant aromas are whisked away in seconds. Fan-Tastic Vent can reduce the use of air conditioning allowing you to breath natural, fresh ambient outside air.

I think it's supposed to open and shut and turn on and off by itself according to the setting on the termmostat. I also understood that it's supposed to close and turn off when it rains. I don't know how much rain it needs, we haven't had all that much rain lately, but the one rainy period we did have, we ended up closing it ourselves - maybe we were just being impatient?

Any help greatly appreciated! BTW, I know this has been addressed before, but I just got more confused reading what others wrote - technically challenged I guess. SGeohagan Active Member. I googled fantastic vent fan and came up with the website www. That's where I got my instructions. None came with my Big Horn. I just replied to a similar thread this morning. Our Fantastic Fan was doing the same as yours. I pulled the cover off and noticed a little coil thing had been apparently bumped out of position.

I moved it back into place and the thermostat worked! There is a picture on the other thread that shows where to look yellow arrow. I've been trying to follow your suggestions as to the thermostat, etc. I don't see anywhere what the model number is, and when I go to the website, I'm not finding one that looks identical to ours. And we were told by the dealer that it would close during rain, and there IS the water symbol on the fan, but nothing else to indicate that it actually closes during rain.

It's hard to put things into words sometimes. Does anyone know the model number of their fan in the Big Country TS? Thanks PS I took the thermostat cover off and the little coil thing you wrote about seems to be in place. PPS It's a wall thermostat. There should be a silver sticker on the fan motor with the model number for which model installed. Any moisture rain or condensation on the Rain sensor strip electronic "looking" pad under the roof cover will prevent the fantastic fan from operating.

Join iRV2. Thanks for the tip. Glad you enjoyed the BUGS! My Fantastic Fan stopped working a few months ago Had been fine. I checked everything like you did but did not think about checking topside.

I'll do that tomorrow. I tried this and unfortunately it didn't work. My fan is dead. Atwood Tech Support would have told you to check the plunger switch first as it is a very common problem. My fantastic vent function is operating very well with one exception. The automatic rain closure feature is not functioning.

Has anyone have any suggestions as to what I should be looking for and testing? Like the plunger, you may get away with just a little maintenance cleaning. Good Luck. Originally Posted by gmarsha2.
