Saw an article on the net which calculated the savings you get from a DC fan vs an AC fan.

Considering the higher price you pay for a DC fan, it would take you 7~8 yrs of 8hrs/day usage to breakeven. So currently i dont care about DC or AC, whichever suits i get...

I came here cause I was looking at Pana/KDK (kdk is under panasonic anyway) fan and my wife says they are ugly and prefer Deka...

After all the reviews here.. I think I'll stick Panasonic..

I miss National though... using their fan for 16 yrs now... zero problem .. still as strong as day 1 and zero humming/buzzing/strange sound...

Sigh I bought bayu 5 Panasonic fans during 11.11 sales last year because kdk and Panasonic seems like a more reliable brand than deka

Ultimately disappointed no cooling effect whatsoever.. other fan salesman told me is because their motor capacity matched to steel blades which is heavier but I feel is the blades do not provide sufficient air flow

At the end changed a few to alpha fans which you are able to change the downrod easily if your ceiling height is not too high..
Panasonic you can't really change the downrod unless you customise a cover for the rod

Please stay away from Panasonic until they improve

I regret buying my windless wonder of a Bayoo 4 from Pana. Do you want to take it off my hands at 30% off? it is hardly used, I think in its lifetime only used less than 3 weeks worth of runtime.

Bayu 4 rated at 7592 CFM.. if no air perhaps you need take a look at the warranty...

The 2014 unit from probably first batch was OK
Then I went to top ten to buy the windless wonder in 2018 cos project almost complete tot have it ready first
Installed in 2019 and regret till now. I already put up take down from living room to middle room to now small room still kind of windless and making horrible scratching noises even when I stripped the fan center plate naked.

Cannot be I am so noob in installing fan (this is like the fifth fan I did), the rest all OK, and cannot be all three fan hooks were flawed to such great extent.

any feedback on DEKA MS16 wall mount fan?

Exposed blade being safety hazard. Proper wall fan should be made with blade guard since its running at high speed. If the blade cracking phenomena also happen to ceiling fans..means that wall fan lagi at risk.

For same price u can buy two KDK wall fan. Wind very strong and directional across the living room.

safety is one issue, but design looks cool. will check out other brand.. thx..

Yeah same..ended up buying Alpha AX-60 to replace a 5 blade Bayu that was windless from day 1 + humming since 3 years of age (repaired the PCB board, humming was less initially but after 1 year it became very loud). Plan to change one of my old National Remote fan that is 21 years old and just started humming recently with the AX-60 as well.

.

went to see this fan at some shop in puchong, the display unit there is making loud cracking noise when the fan is oscillating

Wasn't aware there was an existing thread.
Owner of 3x unit Deka Kronos 5 blade fans here - very unreliable.

Not even 2 years of full usage, 1 fan started having loud "swooshing" noise when in use for more than a couple of minutes - managed to claim warranty, changed entire motor. A couple of months later, another unit started having the same issue :x

Hi,i just install MS16 wall mount in 45 degree, but it giving noise like blade vibrating sound. It is fine when i tilt to 90 degree(facing downwards). Any idea why the noise only come when i tilt to 45 degree please? Do i need to do balancing in 45 degree? Thanks

Hi, I just bought 3 units sv baby and noticed all of them hv humming noise when running at speed one. The noise is like boiling kettle sound. Is this normal?

Hi, anyone know how to open the Deka F5-4P first cover to the circuit board? I tried counter clockwise and clockwise turn the cover it doesn't turn to open. So what did I missed out?

urs maybe use clips.. try peel slowly if still cant turn..

Doesn't seem to work either, try to pry it open with plastic card also won't budge.

Anyone got idea how to open the cover for Deka F5-4P? All the video saw on YouTube mentioned turn counter clockwise but this F5-4P doesn't turn either way.

u turn the center plate or the outer casing?
if cant turn, sorry im not sure how to open.

mine other model, but need to turn the center plate. need something 'sticky' like the phone holder gel mate to get a grip.

Anyone can advise if this is new or old model? Can't seem to find it on their official website.
