Expert Answers about RV Ceiling Fans
- Difference Between RV and Residential Ceiling Fans
- The main differences you'll find between your usual residential fan and a fan intended for use in an RV like the # 277-000086 RV Ceiling Fan from AirForce is that many RV ceiling fans run on 12V DC (although this fan runs on 120V AC power). Another big difference is that most RV ceiling fans are the hugger style, with the motor sitting right up against the ceiling. This is due to the low ceiling height usually found in RV's.

- The MaxxAir MaxxFan "Mini" Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan, # MA00-04401M and the MaxxFan Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan, # MA00A04401K are very similar but there is a difference in the profile. The MaxxAir Mini, # MA00-04401M will set at 2-7/8" above the roof when closed compared to 4-1/4" for the # MA00A04401K.

- The Progressive Dynamics Mighty Mini AC/DC Panel and Converter/Smart Charger # PD4045KA actually pulls the heat back in and the quiet fan will only run when the unit gets up to 115 degrees Fahrenheit. My contact at Progressive Dynamics said that you won't have any issues installing this next to where you are sleeping because the fan will rarely run (especially at night) and you won't have heat blowing on you.

- The difference between the MaxxAir MaxxFan Mini Roof Vent # MA00-04401M and the MaxxFan Roof Vent # MA00A04401K does indeed simply have to do with its profile. The MaxxAir Mini Roof Vent will only extend 2-7/8 inches above the roof when it's closed compared to 4-1/4 inches on the standard model.

- The MaxxAir II RV and Enclosed Trailer Roof Vent Cover # MA86JR and the Fan-Tastic Vent Ultra Breeze Trailer Roof Vent Cover # DMC38FR have very similar dimensions so I doubt anyone would be able to notice any difference in actual ventilation performance from the 1-inch height difference between them.
Since the USA-made MaxxAir # MA86JR is both lower in price and has twice as long a warranty (6 years vs. 3 years) I would go with the MaxxAir.

- The difference is that the MaxxAir II RV and Enclosed Trailer Roof Vent Cover # MA26JR is just the better all-around option over the MaxxAir FanMate Rain Cover # MA00-955003. It fits more vents, flows more air, and is priced better so it's the best choice.

- The MaxxAir Mini Deluxe Trailer Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan - Black # MA00-03851 and the MaxxAir Mini Deluxe - White # MA00-03801 that you referenced are indeed identical units except for their lid color. Both are 12V DC powered exhaust fans with 1 speed option and feature an integrated rain shield to prevent water from entering the RV or trailer. Any difference in price between the two options is simply related to manufacturer pricing and supply and demand.
