VULCAN WOODSTOVE STIRLING ENGINE FAN

Anyone have this fan ?

Im curious if you are happy with it, and if it puts out significantly more air/CFM, then the $25 Peltier type woodstove fans.

Looks like it is $152, and they ship to America.

Re: Ky Ko fan - Pakistan style

It seems odd, that no company or China, has decided to mass produce these , at much lower costs. They are not that complex...id guess the most complicated things would be the proper tolerances/ alignment...but as far as individual parts are concerned, nothing expensive involved. Surely there would b...

I could always connect the displacer a...
