Is the fan intermittent or continuous?

The fan is intermittent depending on the temperature of the inverter. For example if the inverter is connected to 12V but there's no load (i.e. nothing to be charged at 120V) the temperature of the device should be low and the fan wouldn't be required therefore it won't spin.

I honestly don't know. I can tell you that it seems to be noticeable when the unit becomes hot, which did not happen very much, maybe once or twice. I usually leave it plugged in with my MacBook Pro connected to it. I usually have it on almost 24 hours for weeks at a time (mobile office on wheels). I just keeps doing its job. Unit has never over heated, and I can't remember the last time I even noticed the fan, in fact its real quiet...

Sorry to say the fan stays on unit you turn it off. I also was unaware of this till I got it home.

Yes, the fan run constantly, even when not heating. It's actually nice (in my opinion) that it maintains a fairly constant state of white noise, rather than fully shutting down.

Never noticed a fan problem. I can hear it, but it's quite minimal (and I'm sensitive to noise).

Fan does run at all times, however it appears to be thermostat controlled and will only really spin up when under load. Even then though when I am using this unit its pretty quiet and never really gets hot.

I don't know about the fan. I set my machine for 12 hours when I go out of town. I haven't had any problems

Once the set temperature is reached the heat turns off and then the fan. So the fan is not always running.

Check the manual here for the troubleshooting section: http://www.soleusair.com/Manuals/2011%20Manual/SG-DEH-30M%2045%2070-1A%20Soleus%20Manual%203-31-2011.pdfSometimes I think it's just the fan kicking up a speed every once in a while.

I called Danby Customer Service on October 16, 2014, to ask them about the fan. They said they changed the fan operation from continuous to non-continuous earlier this year (possibly May, the rep wasn't sure). So units being manufactured now have non-continuous fans, but older units may still be in stock.UPDATE 10/20/2014: I just received my unit, manufactured 7/7/2014 (serial number starting with 2014 07 07), and the fan does NOT run continuously. It does run for a while after reaching the set humidity, but then shuts off, and the unit is then silent.

I have not experienced this problem. I bought two of these fans and both have performed great.

I think it depends on the mode you have selected. Once our room is heated to the desired level, we usually choose a manual mode so we do not have the fan cycling. I suggest trying different modes, and if fan cycles on and off in each mode, you may have a problem. Good luck.

Yes the fan does run continuously to circulate cool air in the chamber when in use. In my opinion, it is louder than it should be. In our home which is open concept (kitchen opens to the dining and living areas), the noise is mildly annoying though I have gotten more used to it over time.

No, just on and off. I would say compared to most fans it's basically just on low but moves air around a room nicely.

Yes the fan runs continuously. It works like a mini fridge. I never have the problem with noise as my kitchen is far from my bedroom. It's not loud at all unless you are so sensitive to noise. I can understand the annoyance if the person is sensitive to noise or lives in a studio apt. I love this product alot as it keeps my wine at the right temp and seals it.

The cooling shuts off, but the fan runs continuous. It's a slightly deeper, louder white noise when the it switches to AC mode. If you're awake, you can notice it, but it's not enough to wake you up.

Yes, on the top of the fan there is a pull switch. Up for non- oscillating and down to oscillate.

The fan continues until you power off the system. Same for heatand cool cycles.
