John Landstrom Posted October 9, 2024 Posted October 9, 2024 (edited) Update: Found out it’s a Vornado Model 20C1, made 1949-1950. Hello, title says it all. Pics below. Wife fell in love with this and I “had to” bring it home. Yet another unexpected project. The fan runs like a champ. I used my Superior variable transformer as a “dimmer switch” and the fan ran fine at all speed settings. At 120v it ran like a banshee and would service a 3-4 car garage well, at 80v it was the perfect for a small room. I’ll probably be looking for a suitable speed control/choke/switch to allow having a variable speed fan. This will be a resto-mod. Note: The “box” cover for the wiring is missing, and so no label included. Also, I believe the switch is a replacement. It’s On/Off only. Wires have been replaced. Looking for the missing parts and/or suitable replacements. Edited October 9, 2024 by John Landstrom Quote
