Review: These fit and work great in my NVR Wall mounted Lock box. - It looks like a well-made fan. I for this one even though it's a little wider than my old cheap fan because it's supposed to be quite. It is some as the other one was going bad and making more noise than normal. It's not as quiet as I had expected though. It is in the garage, even though we walk by it every day. It's used in my NVR lockbox mounted up on the wall. It was one fan on the side blowing out. So I replaced it and added a second one. So the same side is blowing out, and the one on the other side is blowing in. 2 fans now so double the noise of 1 fan I assume. I'll see how well it works like this. There are 2 direction arrows on it. One shows airflow direction, the other shows what way the fan is going to spin. While the Plug has a fat end so it can only plug in one way. It really wouldn't matter as the fan will s[in the same direction even if you could turn it around. I ended up cutting the plugs off anyway so I could directly wire them up to my Temp controller I have mounted on my case. When it hits 80F it will power them both ON and when it's below that they both go off. These fans are covered by a 30-day free return policy and a TWO YEAR hassle-free warranty. They cover all costs including shipping for returns and exchanges and warranty claims. At least they is what they say as I haven't put that to the test as my fans are brand new. One issue I did have is when I powered it up, one fan wasn't running. I stuck a screwdriver into the fan to see if it would spin, and it did but was making a bad noise. It ended up tightening a couple of screws a little too light putting it into just enough of a bind. I started to loosen a couple up a bit and the noise went away and all is good now. Don't panic if this happens to you. Simple fix!!! Review: Quiet and Effective - Nice quiet fan I set next to my Motorola modem/router to keep it cool; nothing fancy, it just sits next to my modem and keeps air circulating. I've had it running continuously for over a year without any issues. I occasionally use a can of compressed air to clear the dust from the case and fan blades. I also like that this fan has a plug and is ready to use. Great product. ## Features - Designed for projects that requires cooling or ventilation; or as a replacement fan for various products. - Includes a heavy-duty aluminum fan with power plug cord, two fan guards, and mounting screw set. - UL-certified fan with dual-ball bearings has a lifespan of 67,000 hours.

I assume I can't do this because it is not possible to reverse the polarity,right?** A: It depends how you you mount it. There is an arrow to tell you which way the air is flowing so you should be able to rotate it to the direction desired. I needed it to suck and was mounting it inside a box followed the arrow and it worked wonderfully. **Q: I need to feed this cable thru small opening. Does power cord detach at the fan?** A: Yeah the power cord can be detached at the fan and run thru an opening then reattached very easily. **Q: Is it possible to reverse the polarity and/or vary the voltage (rpm)?** A: This is an 120VAC alternating current fan. There is no way to reverse the polarity because it doesn't have a polarity. It's AC. You could reverse polarity (and direction) on a DC (direct current fan) but not on an AC motor/fan.As far as slowing the fan down, you could probably apply some sort of SCR or Resistor voltage control in-line with the fan however, the fan may or may not be happy with decreased voltage and could possible fail. It was designed as a one-speed fan. I would look for a fan that had capability of reversal & speed control built-in by design if I was to pursue your fan dream.

I've had it running continuously for over a year without any issues. I occasionally use a can of compressed air to clear the dust from the case and fan blades. I also like that this fan has a plug and is ready to use. Great product. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great fan for my keezer build *by J***O on November 9, 2016* This is a great little fan for my keezer that I built. The typcial chest freezer with wood collar (8 inch riser), as you know the temperature difference from the bottom of the freezer to the top of the freezer can be 10-15F difference. Well that's enough to have your exposed beer lines foam up. Well this fan, mounted at the top, blowing air down circulates the cold air around to keep it an even temperature. This fan is quiet, and I specially chose the low speed model as my keezer was going to be inside the house, I wanted to keep noise down. This fan pushes more than enough air per minute and it's energy draw is so little that I can run it non-stop without worry. I will highly recommend you plug this fan into a GFCI outlet or GFCI adapter outlet (adapter outlet on amazon - less than 13 bucks). Because the inside of a keezer can be humid, it's important to protect yourself. What the description doesn't tell you is that the power cord is removable. That is a huge bonus! It plugs right into the fan. Note, the diameter of the plug is approximately 9/16" but I needed a 7/8" hole to fit the plug (not ac part) through the keezer wall. A piece of cork plugged the hole with the wire passing through it. Overall the fan is solid, looks nice and comes all the bolts, nuts, rubber washers and good documentation. I would highly recommend this fan if you're looking for a fan that is AC powered. ## Frequently Bought Together - AC Infinity AXIAL 8038, Quiet Muffin Fan, 120V AC 80mm x 38mm Low Speed, UL-Certified for DIY Cooling Ventilation Exhaust Projects - AC Infinity, Fan Speed Controller for 100 to 125V AC Axial Muffin Cooling Fans, Single Connector, for DIY Cooling Ventilation Exhaust Projects - AC Infinity AXIAL 1225, Quiet Muffin Fan, 120V AC 120mm x 25mm Low Speed, UL-Certified for DIY Cooling Ventilation Exhaust Projects --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/1043999-axial-8038-quiet-muffin-fan-120v-ac-80mm-x-38mm](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/1043999-axial-8038-quiet-muffin-fan-120v-ac-80mm-x-38mm) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-13*
