    It does what it says it’s going to do, so I should give it a better rating. But even for 50 $60 it should move more air than it does that little fan is for a small computer. I’m going to retrofit it with a larger fan that will move more air. Anyway who cares have a great day blah blah blah

                For the cost, it's decent. The fan is smaller than I expected and doesn't really put out much air

                    The 2-star rating only comes, from the fact, that if the sun is not directly shining down on the solar panel the fan will not run. Make sure you are installing were ‘direct’ sunlight will be contacting the fan unit (e.g. I live in WA, so south side of house) the slightest “shading” and the fan will begin to slow if not stop completely stop. When it is running at optimal capacity, it helps cool our shed by drawing out the hot air that has risen to the ceiling.

                    Works great on a 12ft x 16 ft shed. Saw a positive change in keeping the temps down and the odors and vapors from accumulating. Weather tight even through a heavy rain and wind. Thinking of ordering another to the house to help with the one I already have. Would definitely recommend this product.

                    Great little vent! I was pleasantly surprised at how well it works. The solar panel was working even during times of partial shade. If it’s very cloudy or during times of heavy shade did not work. Made a big difference in garage.

                    I am impressed with how well this little fan works. It works slowly with partial sunlight and speeds up with full sunlight. It was easy to install and starts working immediately.

                    This little device does a good job of taking some of the hot air out of my 12x9 corrugated shed. Pointed towards the South and it works like a champ.

                    Works great, Just wish they had a way to charge a battery so it could run a bit longer after the sun sets. Living in the desert does keep our side porch a bit cooler even after we installed them.
