AC Motor Speed Controller 120V ,Variable Speed Controller & Fan Speed Controller with Rheostat,Variable Voltage Regulator Router for Electric Motors

Worked well

I have two larger fans that I use to keep my garage a little more comfortable during the warmer months. The problem is, they have just two speeds and both of them make more noise than I care to listen to. I will tolerate the noise on those really hot days, but if I don't need a lot of air movement, I will sometimes forgo the fans entirely just so I don't have to listen to the noise. This controller was just what I needed to have some air movement while at the same time keeping the noise to a minimum.The controller is super easy to use: just plug it into the wall, plug the fan into the unit's receptacle, turn the unit on, then turn the knob until the desired air movement and noise level are achieved (lower voltage = slower rotation = less noise).Build quality is decent, albeit plastic. There is a belt-clip-like metal tab on the back for you to hang the controller from a fan's protective grill. Two tabs at opposing corners support screws for wall mounting.Depending on the cost of your fan (or whichever motor you are connecting to this), this can be a cost effective method for achieving a bit more control over it.

I used this to slow the speed of a polishing wheel that the rheostat had failed on. It worked well.

Are you looking for a reliable and efficient way to control the speed of your electric motors? Look no further than the VXCICC AC Motor Speed Controller 120V. This variable speed controller offers a range of features and benefits that make it a must-have tool for any DIY enthusiast or professional.The VXCICC AC Motor Speed Controller 120V offers a wide range of benefits for users. It provides precise control over the speed of electric motors, allowing for customized settings to suit specific needs. The fan speed controller feature makes it ideal for regulating the speed of fans, ensuring optimal air circulation. The variable voltage regulator router further enhances its versatility, making it compatible with a variety of electric motor types.I have personally used this speed controller on an old box fan that had worn out. By replacing the fan with an industrial-grade model and integrating the VXCICC controller, I was able to set the speed exactly where I wanted it. The ease of installation and user-friendly interface make this product a game-changer for anyone looking to upgrade their motor control system.Overall, the VXCICC AC Motor Speed Controller 120V is a top-of-the-line product that delivers on performance, ease of use, and versatility.

The media could not be loaded. This isn't as fully-continuous in the speed settings as a proper variac, but it does control the motor I tested. The motor hooked up to this behaves as though there's two settings : low and full power. That said, this is an inexpensive way to control an AC motor, and much safer than directly running a motor on the mains.

I bought some used 4 foot shop fans last year to keep my un-air-conditioned workshop cool. But they have just a little too much oomph for the setting. Enter this guy! I plug it in, then plug the fan into this controller, and I can micro-manage the fan speed between low and high to get exactly what I need (and not a windstorm!) It was dead easy to use - no assembly required. It is really practical in my workshop, and I could see myself possibly using it on other electrical pieces like grinders or saws to get extra precision control over those too. It works great and solves a real problem in my workshop. And it was way, way cheaper than buying a new fan with more settings!

I picked-up the AC Motor Speed Controller 120V ,Variable Speed Controller & Fan Speed Controller with Rheostat,Variable Voltage Regulator Router for Electric Motors, to use on a heater fan that I rigged to show-the-blow but, to keep the heat at a consistent output, and it’s working perfectly for my purpose.I’m certain that in the warm months, I will use the Controller for the AC and fan, as well. This is a problem solver, and it’s a reliable unit. I’m satisfied and would buy it again.

I like a lot about this variable speed controller. I like the digital voltage display. It feels smooth and adjusts very finely all the way down to 0 volts.It works great for me. I will be using this on water pumps, vibrating motors and fans. It is going to get a lot of use around here.They say this maxes out at 15 Amps yet can peak at 4,000 Watts. But it has a cut out at 15 Amps so I cannot see how it can take that surge. Anyway, I will not come anywhere near 15 Amps with this.
