 The Heat Powered Stove Fan is a must have for South Africans that don't want to be bothered by looming power outages or gas shortages this winter.These clever little devices is an excellent addition to any stove which has a smooth and hot flat surface, such as wood burning stoves, coal stoves, pellet stove and gas stoves.The fans convert heat to electrical power which drives the fan and is therefore unaffected by power outages. Whenever the stove is hot the blower will run. Being completely wireless it is easy to remove or reposition.This design is the most compact heat powered fan available. Measuring less than 125mm high it fits in to most gaps left by installing a close combustion stove into a conventional fireplace.Each of the fans is fitted with a thermal sensitive plate which lifts the base when temperatures exceed maximum working conditions.  Due to the small size this unit is not completely silent when running full power but the benefit of extracting the hot air from the fireplace makes up for this. The fan gets its power from a Peltier element that is used in reverse, i.e. it is generating electricity from the heat given off from the stove top. The Peltier element generates electricity through the difference in temperature. The base must make contact with a heat source of at least 85C and the top of the fan must remain cool. For optimal use the fans needs to draw cooler air from behind in order to operate effective. Key benefits:• Eco friendly fan• Near silent operation• Safe, economical operation• No electricity needed, no external power source required generates its own electricity from the heat from the stove to operate• Starts automatically, the hotter, the faster• Operates on almost all stoves. Product details•Overall height: 12.5cm•Overall width12.5cm•Base dimensions: 14.0cm•Net weight: 0.7Kg•OPTIMAL RUNNING TEMPERATURE: 85-350c•CFM:80
