Motion Dc Ceiling Fan

The Domus MOTION DC ceiling fan with light is a 52-inch DC fan — 1,320 mm blade span, 26 W motor, 14,310 m³/h airflow, 9 speeds, reversible, with an 18 W switchable LED light, in black or white.

⭐⭐ Read the blade span from the title, not from the dimensions

• ⭐ This fan's blade span is 52 inches, 1,320 mm, from its datasheet. ⚠ Its record publishes length = 610 mm, which is not the span and not obviously anything else a buyer would want.
• ⭐⭐ AND ACROSS THIS CATALOGUE'S FANS THE DIMENSION FIELDS ARE UNRELIABLE IN A SPECIFIC, CHECKABLE WAY. ⭐ Of the five fans publishing a length:
  • ⭐ THREE RECORD THEIR OWN SPAN CORRECTLY — ⭐ the GLIDE 80″ at 2,030 mm, the BLAST 48″ at 1,220 mm and the STRIKE 60″ at 1,520 mm.
  • ⛔ TWO CARRY A SIBLING'S SPAN — ⛔ the STRIKE 48″ publishes 1,520 mm, which is the 60″'s span, and the BLAST 52″ publishes 1,220 mm, which is the 48″'s.
• ⭐⭐ THE THREE CORRECT ONES ARE WHAT MAKE THE OTHER TWO ERRORS RATHER THAN A CONVENTION. ⭐ The field is meant to hold the span; on two products it holds the wrong one.
• ⚠ THE CONSEQUENCE IS CONCRETE: a buyer comparing a STRIKE 48 with a STRIKE 60 sees 1,520 mm on both listings. ⭐ On a ceiling fan the swept diameter is the first specification, because it decides whether the fan fits the room and clears the walls.
• ⭐ SO ON ANY FAN IN THIS CATALOGUE, TAKE THE INCH FIGURE FROM THE TITLE and confirm with us if it matters.

⭐ What a 52-inch fan actually suits

• ⭐ A 1,320 mm span suits a room of roughly 3.6 × 3.6 m to 4.2 × 4.2 m — a standard bedroom or a small living room.
• ⚠ ALLOW AT LEAST 600 mm FROM THE BLADE TIP TO ANY WALL, and more where a wardrobe door or a tall cupboard opens into the sweep. ⭐ Blade tips are the part people forget when placing a fan off-centre to miss a light fitting.
• ⭐ MOUNTING HEIGHT MATTERS MORE THAN SPAN FOR COMFORT. ⭐ Aim for the blades at about 2.4 m above the floor: lower moves more air on you but reduces headroom, higher is safer but the draught weakens quickly. ⚠ On a raked or high ceiling an extension rod is a separate purchase.
• ⭐ IT IS TROPICALLY RATED AND CARRIES A WINTER/SUMMER REVERSE — ⭐ reverse pushes warm air down off the ceiling in winter, which is worth using and rarely is.

⭐ A DC motor at 26 W — the reason to choose it

• ⭐⭐ 26 W FOR 14,310 m³/h IS THE HEADLINE. ⭐ An AC fan of the same span typically draws 60 to 75 W for comparable airflow, so this uses roughly a third of the power.
• ⭐ DC MOTORS ARE ALSO QUIETER AND OFFER MORE SPEEDS. ⭐ Nine here, against the three an AC fan usually gives — and the useful ones are the bottom two, which an AC fan cannot do at all because its lowest speed is still substantial.
• ⭐ A FAN RUNNING QUIETLY ON SPEED ONE ALL NIGHT IS THE CASE FOR DC. ⚠ The trade is that a DC fan depends on its receiver and remote: there is no wall switch fallback, and the receiver carries a shorter warranty than the fan.
• ⭐ The fan is warranted 3 years in-home plus 3 years parts; ⚠ the receiver and remote 1 year in-home plus 1 year parts. ⭐ Note the difference — it tells you which component is expected to fail first.

⭐ The 18 W light, and what "dimmable" means here

⭐ An 18 W LED switchable between 3000 K, 4000 K and 6000 K, dimmable via the remote. ⭐⭐ DIMMING IS BY REMOTE, NOT BY A WALL DIMMER — do not put this on a dimmer circuit. ⭐ A fan's light module and a phase dimmer are a poor combination and the usual result is flicker or a dead receiver. ⭐ 18 W is enough to be a bedroom's main light and not enough for a kitchen, so treat it as convenience lighting rather than the room's scheme. ⭐ Set the colour once at commissioning and leave it — ⚠ 6000 K in a bedroom is uncomfortable.

⚠ Accessories are separate, and one of them is often needed

⭐ The sheet lists a Bluetooth wall control and extension rods as sold separately. ⭐⭐ THE EXTENSION ROD IS THE ONE THAT CATCHES PEOPLE: on a raked ceiling or anything above about 2.7 m the fan needs one to reach a sensible blade height — ⭐ and it is discovered on installation day. ⭐ Measure the ceiling before ordering. ⭐ The Bluetooth wall control is worth considering in a rental or a holiday house, where a lost remote makes the fan unusable.

✅ What is published

Where it works

• ⭐⭐ Bedrooms — ⭐ DC speed one runs quietly all night.
• ⭐ Rooms up to about 4.2 m square — ⭐ 1,320 mm span.
• ⭐ Where running cost matters — ⭐ 26 W against 60–75.
• ⚠ Not on high or raked ceilings without an extension rod.
• ⛔ Not on a wall dimmer — ⭐ the remote does the dimming.

Specifying it

52-inch DC ceiling fan with light. 1,320 mm blade span, 12° blade pitch, ABS polymer motor, canopy and blades. 26 W, 14,310 m³/h, 9 speeds, winter/summer reverse, tropically rated. 18 W LED light switchable 3000/4000/6000 K, dimmable by remote. Fan warranty 3 years in-home plus 3 years parts; receiver and remote 1 plus 1. Extension rods and Bluetooth wall control sold separately. ⭐⭐ READ THE BLADE SPAN FROM THE TITLE, NOT THE DIMENSIONS. Of the five fans in this catalogue publishing a length, three record their own span correctly — the GLIDE 80″, the BLAST 48″ and the STRIKE 60″ — and TWO CARRY A SIBLING'S: the STRIKE 48″ publishes the 60″'s 1,520 mm and the BLAST 52″ publishes the 48″'s 1,220 mm. The three correct ones are what make the other two errors rather than a convention. The consequence is concrete — a buyer comparing a STRIKE 48 with a STRIKE 60 sees 1,520 mm on both — and on a ceiling fan the swept diameter is the first specification, because it decides whether the fan fits the room and clears the walls.
