i have very good experience with panasonic fans - wall and ceiling - so far none have failed (some now almost 10 yrs old). just need occasional regreasing when they squeek - that is all.

on the other hand i have bought some nice alpha metal fans and they cant be used. motor fail and all... they only look nice for display. really regret that i bought two at the same time.

yes PCB board - same problem i had with mine after 5 yrs. bough new pcb boards from pana in sect 13 (54 each), can be changed while the fan is hanging on ceiling, takes approx. 5 min to replace the board and all is well.

should be compatible. u want one? took down a three blade panasonic fan this weekend. still working - i can give you the entire set including regulator

want to pay also can - if you want to have it let me know. pick up in PJ.
