what kind of 18 V battery I can use for this fan, 1.5 Amp or 3.0 Amp or both??

You can use any of the Makita Lithium Ion batteries from 14.4 volt to 18 volts or the included AC adaptor

All three battery sizes work. I prefer the 4.5 amp that I found on amazon not a makita brand but so far it is working great. The 4.5 lasts an hour longer then the 3.0. The combination is a job site must!

Any USB wall plug of any voltage will work. If you can charge your smartphone you can run this fan.

The 130254011 is correct for the 18v 2.5ah. Originally I had to match up the look of the battery. Hope that helps. Great price though. Other sources sell for like $90

This battery will power small low-amperage electronic devices and lights, but will definitely NOT work for anything that needs lots of amps. An air pump or anything else with a motor is too big for this to power. You can get a continuous 3 amp output, but anything much larger will trigger the built-in shut off (which protects the battery from overload) and kill the power until you reset it with the power switch. Also note - the wiring inside the battery is really light gage and not designed to power heavy loads. Hope this helps!

I would not run that amp with anything smaller than 1/0 wire and at least 1 extra battery. That amp is very unstable at .5 ohms. I had one blow on me twice.

It has a fan that requires attachment to a 12v battery source. We have it wired directly to one of the batteries.

Yes, the battery was included with my fan. The battery is a Nokia style phone battery , part number BL-5C. 3.7 volt 700 mAh .

The fan I purchased was made to run on 120 volt alternating current. There were wires to wire the fan directly or wire it to be controlled by a switch.

You can put batteries directly in the fan or buy the rechargeable CPX battery

The battery is a PC18B. It is a 1.5Ah battery according to the Porter-Cable website.

Not sure about that. The instructions listed D batteries, which clearly weren't useful. Fan only worked for one day.

Hi! Sorry, it took me this long to response. I had to go and check it since I already stored my fan in the basement. But it read at the bottom 120 volts. I hope this helps or you can.probably contact the seller or manufacturer.

I had the same problem at the time determining the maximum current but I think most fans should be ok. I used it for a fairly large fan so I'm guessing most is good for most 15 amp circuits .

I know this fan moves some air. On a 12.6V battery I get a drop to 11.7 while running but not sure how many amp hours are used up. I put this in my camper bathroom and it works like a champ.

I hope you have a solar panel rigjt. Good! Is the battery part of the fan? Parts that work are one solar panel connected. Two battery connected . Three fan (load) connected. Once battery receives charge. The fan will work. The panel may over charge the battery. Be careful. I use a regulator. Worry free! Hope this helps.
