Ozeri Brezza II turns on, oscillates but won't spin. No motor sound.

Hello!

I have an Ozeri Brezza II fan that is 2 years old. It’s worked wonderfully but I recently tried to use a USB adapter to run it and it would not run. Now it won’t work at all. I’m guessing this was the cause of it breaking but could not swear to it.

The fan has a remote. It turns on, oscillates all directions but the an will not spin at all. There is no motor sound.

I’ve struggled to find my exact problem anywhere. Any help would be appreicated.

Thanks!

Nancy

What do you mean about using a USB adapter? Please explain.

Sorry... I realize that was a crappy description I gave. I believe its called a power inverter... where you plug the device into the cigarette lighter and then it has a normal electrical outlet on the other end plus a couple usb ports. We checked that it could handle the fan but when we plugged it in it did not work and I had to use another smaller fan. (We were on a road trip which required me to lay down (back issues) in the back of a van. )

Sorry about the back problem - they're never worth having.

To be clear, so this is normally mains powered? And you have an inverter which plugs into a cigarette lighter socket and has a normal (110V if you're in the US) mains socket on the other end?

According to the Amazon page you helpfully quoted, this fan can take up to 55W, which I understand you've checked is within the capacity of your inverter. But I suspect the problem might rather be that the inverter doesn't produce a pure sine wave output, i.e. instead of alternating smoothly in direction like a pendulum as mains power does (roughly), it alternates in a stepwise fashion, euphemistically called "modified sine wave". The fan motor may not like this. If it still oscillates and responds to the remote then the whole fan isn't toast - perhaps the smaller motor(s) which create the oscillating motion are more forgiving. If you're lucky there could be a thermal fuse that's blown, but if you’re out of luck it could be the speed control circuitry that's died.

Thanks Philip for the detailed info. I'm not too knowledgeable in this stuff but I can follow directions quite well. Do I need to just google how to check a thermal fuse on a fan or is this going to be more trouble than it's worth for a non-electronic person?
