## Overview

The Flex-a-lite 398 Syclone is a 16-inch reversible electric fan designed to optimize engine cooling with 2,500 CFM airflow at 17 amps. Featuring 8 precision-balanced S-blades, it reduces engine load by replacing belt-driven fans, extending water pump life while operating quietly at 38 decibels. Ideal for vintage and modern vehicles, it offers easy installation with a 12V corded power source and a one-year manufacturer warranty.

## Description

This reversible Flex-a-lite S-blade electric engine cooling fan is designed for quiet operation and efficient air movement. If used as a primary fan, it frees up horsepower that would otherwise have to be used to turn a belt-driven fan. When used as an auxiliary fan, it will provide added cooling to an engine prone to overheating.

Review: no lo recomiendo - echo en usa pero tiende a vibrar mucho no son calibrados correctamente
Review: Nice fan at a good price - Got this fan to replace an engine powered unit in a vintage Jaguar to give myself a few extra horses and relieve some of the strain on the old water pump bearings. I originally was going to buy a no-name version but after some internet research I decided that the flex-a-lite would be worth the extra few bucks. This fan draws a good number of amps so if installing it in an old car be sure to upgrade the alternator. In my Jag at idle it cools it down and shuts off in less than a minute at 70 degrees (F). I used a flex-a-lite adjustable fan controller which is also a nice piece of kit. All in all, a really good product at a very good price. Similar no-names cost about $80 with shipping and I've heard some horror stories about cheap fans coming apart at speed. This one is fully balanced and seems to run quite smoothly.
