[QUOTE="IanDaddy, post: 525764, member: 18207"] Tropos, thanks for your thoughts. I think the pros of electrical fans are they speed is totally independent of engine. Imagine when idling in traffic jam, the e-fan can be on or off or at low or high speed while the mech-fan is either free-wheeling or engaged and run proportional to the rpm. I think acceleration feels better because mech-fan is directly loaded to the engine and the inertia thingy. The torque of the electrical motor is instantaneous I think. I think newer cars mostly have e-fans. [/QUOTE]
