Rad fans

Post by Water Boy »

These people have got some serious fan setups.
They look like they know their stuff.

I dunno that I agree with him on everything (he is, after all, a seller), but in any case, go to one of his other ads for something that'll fit your rad (which is a 28 incher, by the way)

The first thought I had when I found these fans was to offer another source for those here in the family.

I did not research the accuracy of his claims.
Just a source for those "in the know" or "how to know".

Hayden and Flexalite are mass marketers.
I just haven't seen too many fan kits that appear to be done "right".

As with most everything on the Internet that is being sold ... Buyer Be Aware.

That being said.......
I'd be interested in how the quality and effectiveness of his kits pan out in the real world.
