This was a bust after year 2 when the fan stopped working. I replaced the battery, the fan motor and eventually the fan with a USB-powered fan. Nothing worked short of replacing the solar vent for $219.00 which I would not do. So now it’s a passive vent which thankfully does not leak any rain. I purchased an O2Cool 12VDC two speed fan with a 5” diameter blade that I tied onto the inside of my companionway’s top crib board with the slats. I can run it off the house battery or wire it directly to the 20W solar panel. It’s very clunky but it keeps the humidity down significantly. You might be able to find a smaller fan somewhere but this was available and it works fine. [/quote]   Check here to include your profile signature. Check here to subscribe to this topic.
