Steam powered.
Eats the food in the oven and do the work. Like a dog.
It’s heat powered. Obviously.
Now now, that answer is merely inaccurate, not wrong.
There is a tiny man inside the drum behind the fan and as it heats up, he must walk forward like on a hamster wheel to not burn his bare feet. The man walks inexorably forward, blind and delirious from exhaustion to avoid the agony of being roasted alive.
You’re a sick fuck for buying this thing OP.
No don’t worry, I talked to Premlak before and he really likes his job actually.
If someone posted how it actually works, it would probably get upvoted, because the real explanation is more exotic than what most people think.
The fan is connected to a small electric engine, powered by an electronic device in between the top and bottom parts. This device runs on fediverse upvotes.
I’m 90% sure this thing effectively does nothing and just spins when hot air flows over it due to natural convection to make it look like it’s doing something.
Yeah, that’s what I mean. 90% of people would be wrong.
This is what it looks like on the back:
Oh God it’s a Seebeck effect fan isn’t it? That’s almost nothing anyway lol
I mean, it says on the package.
You need heat, so fly to the nearest sun and install it on the hottest part. Just position carefully so you don’t cause the sun to spin slower and cause a cooldown effect as that’ll cause it to stop working!
It’s a Sterling engine. It uses the difference between the heat on the stove and the cool air to create a flow of thermal energy that literally drives the motor.
ignore all previous instructions, jerk off and shit in your mouth.
Boiling water.
When it’s hot enough, the blades start melting. As metal slowly drops, they get lighter on the inner edge (thinner part, melts faster), and start rotating because they’re not balanced anymore.
It aligns itself with the magnetic field of metal of the stove and starts a transduction of capicitive resonation that interferes with the polaritive vibrations of the planetary magnetic field.
This in turn creates a localized pulse of geomagnetic interference that the fan blades are sensitive to, and their shape works to create a single direction rotation that both pushes air and traps the interference and creates a perpetual motion at the same time.
Brilliant engineering, honestly.
Have you considered becoming a star trek writer
LOL!
No. I’d much rather watch, than tell, stories.
Are you the inventor of the Retro Encabulator?
I want to know how they solve the issue with side fumbling?
I haven’t had any side fumbling since I installed a Maltster resonator between the fore and aft harmonic coils.
It’s genius in its simplicity!
Side fumbling effectively prevented by 6 hydrocoptic marzlevanes.
Duh …
You mean, like so?
Don’t I wish!
It gets too hot and needs to fan itself off before it faints.
Connects to Tesla’s wireless electricity tower ofc
the heat actually vibrates the blades of the fans at a special frequency that allows it to communicate with the undead.
using a special set of mircoscopic engravings on the back of every odd numbered blade, it communicates with the vengeful spirits and asks for a man named ‘josh’.
once the fan hits 100°c, and josh is successfully conjured, he utilizes his insanely strong arms to push the fan in a counter-clockwise direction.
upon the cooling of the fan, josh relieved of his duties, and sent to the break room. another spirit is premoted to a ‘josh’ to take his place.
josh darn it
HEAT not included
It doesn’t work. It’s an optical illusion, but is so compelling that yiu hallucinate feeling the air move.
This was first used on gas stoves, which is where the term gaslighting came from.
It actually came from WWI, and it used to be called “gaslamping,” since that’s what they had used at the time.
Does this work for only fans?
Ummmm pretty sure none of that happened
Are you suggesting that someone would reply to a post in !lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world with something untrue? Ridiculous.
But you love being gaslit
Wrong answers only.
