This little switch is great - fanless

This little switch is great - fanless, quiet, and built like a tank. It runs the full on version of RouterOS (not the more stripped down SwitchOS) so you can actually make it do anything its full fledged router brothers can do, though it's all done in CPU, and therefore won't be the fastest. But it's there if you really want to do it, and that includes up to all the crazy stuff like VPLS and ATM (pretty much unheard of at anything this price).

I use mine for very light layer 3 duties but very heavy layer 2 duties - lots of VLAN trunking (tagging, not port aggregation) and stripping / tagging / translating of VLAN tags at high rates (bandwidth and pp/sec). Even at full tilt with multiple ports hitting max rates it doesn't break a sweat. I am pleasantly surprised.

The only drawback is RouterOS, which is pretty strange if you're not used to it. I've dealt with Cisco IOS (meh) and Juniper JunOS (awesome) plus I'm familiar with the HP and Dell interfaces; RouterOS is downright strange. But after a day I was able to get a handle on it, and after jotting down the quirks for future reference I'm having zero issues quickly integrating these things into my network. I would normally knock off a star for it because it's just THAT weird, but the rest of the switch's excellent qualities (silent, great build, rock solid performance) makes up for it.

This is a no-nonsense bathroom fan controller.  It's easy to push the button appropriate for how long I'd like the fan to run.  It has a feature to keep the fan running indefinitely if I so choose.  Installation was straightforward.  A blue light always illuminates the current setting.  This means that it functions as a night light.  I wasn't thrilled about this at first but have grown to appreciate it.  Would purchase again.

A perfect toggle for small electronic projects.

I had been looking for a nice little inline fan for some time and this one fit the bill perfectly.  one male side and one female side for easy ducting.  It makes some noise, but nothing bad for the volume of air that it moves.  It does work with a variable speed controller, but at least in the application i am using for it is unneccesary.  I suspect that i may burn this model out, but that is in no way related to quality of the product.  it is instead related to the fact that i am using it for a high temperature application which it is not rated for.  So far, though, it is easily handling air hot enough to make the surrounding duct work uncomfortably hot to touch and i have seen no issues at all.  over time this would degrade almost any in line fan.  Other than non standard applications (which it is still doing well) this fan will do the job and do it well.

Great little device.  Allows me to move my USB fan around more.

I used this switch when installing a whole-house fan, and it works wonderfully to control the the motor. I plan on installing more of them for the outside/porch lights. I like the features and design better than anything I could find in local stores.

Programmable Features: It is very easy to program, and the instructions are straightforward. The display is easy to read. It also gives you plenty of time to make your selections before automatically returning to the main display (I think 10 seconds for each button). The plastic door on the front doubles as the manual on/off override switch, which is nice.

Construction: The switch seems well-built. The housing, face plate, screen, and buttons are sturdy and look like they'll withstand decades of use.

Installation: It took me 3 minutes to install the switch. The switch doesn't have screw lugs but has the wires extending from the case to where you wire nut them directly to the box wires. The wiring is typical (black, white, red, green) and the schematic is clear. I read some reviews and questions complaining about not knowing what the different colored wires mean or what to do if the box doesn't have a neutral. Those reviews terrify the heck out of me considering those users have no business doing any kind of residential electrical work if they don't know basic universal wire insulation colors, don't know how to read a schematic, don't know what "hot" and "load" mean, and don't know how to fish a neutral into the box. Call an electrician before you burn down your house and kill someone.

Overall, it's an excellent switch for the price.

The fan was easy to get into my window (I was able to leave the screen IN).  It has adjusters for both sides if you need them.  I find I rarely use the remote.  The buttons on the fan are very straight forward.  All the functions work well: blowing air into the room, mixture of air in and air out (one blade rotates one way, one the other), and air out.  It does make some noise... it's a fan!  I find it's a good amount of white noise.  We don't have enough temperature fluctuation (in San Diego) to test the built in thermostat... but perhaps in the 'winter' it will come into play.  I'm very pleased and it definitely beats buying a $400 small AC unit.

Its lightweight, includes anti-vibration pads, the switch works great and is nearly silent. I recommend this to anyone who needs a simple fan.

We had another one of these fans that recently died, so I went for one just like it. We use it with a series of other fans to help cool our church's server computers and it works like a charm. It fits perfectly in the small space we are limited to, right next to the main server, blowing the warm air up to another fan that blows it up to an air duct in which resides several more fans. I highly recommend this one.

wow - this switched worked perfectly to control three fans at a time. Also stays cool during operation

This is a great little switch, I really love the managed features that are available though the switch utility. I especially like the cable test feature, that I didn't even know it had until I started playing with it, it helped me identify cable issues I've know about but have been to lazy to actually go find what ones are bad. Now everything working great. I'm very happy with this purchase!

We do not have central AC in our older home, and we use this to move cool air from the main area into the kitchen, which is a dead-end with no circulation. It does the job very nicely. I do not think the noise is excessive; all fans make some noise - that's just how it works - and from the reviews, you'd think this little fan is noisier than most, but that has not been my experience.

There is a template included for mounting, and installation is a snap. The cord is nice and long, so no issues there.

I gave it four stars instead of five because lacks a reverse switch and the cord placement could be better. Reversing airflow means hanging the fan in reverse, and the cord placement is awkward because of this. I would still recommend this unit, we've been very pleased with its effectiveness.

A lot of people like myself own an entertainment center where beneath the TV is an enclosure housing many of your electronics i.e. Blu-ray, DVD, etc.  Normally the door is glass and it gets pretty warm inside when you close the door (of course when something is turned on). This fan is perfect - not just because it's a good fan, but also because it is USB powered. This key feature is great - I can control when the fan is on or off by plugging it into the USB port of my most commonly used device (Blu-Ray). When I turn off the power to the Blu-Ray, it cuts the power to the USB thus the fan turns off. The only hard part was cutting the opening on the back of the entertainment center when its sitting a foot away from the wall.

Great little device! It feels like quality and works great for my use. I have it controlling two fans (I used an adapter for more plugs) that need to run for 4 hours and then shut off. My fans don't pull a lot of electricity so I know my setup is ok but be careful not to overload this or it will burn out as other reviews have mentioned.

Both fan and remote work perfectly, no complaints. Run it on low most of the time and is great for "white noise" while sleeping, doesn't have any clicking.
