I run a Dayton convection fan on my Englander EP25 pellet stove. I read on here that the Dayton, conpacitor starting is hard on the electronics on the board so I unhookd the wires and ran it straight from a wall socket. Running at continuous high speed tends to be a bit noisy. I see variable speed controllers on ebay that are pretty cheap. Does anyone know of any problems running the fan on a variable speed controller? I did see one that said it couldn't be used on a shaded pole motor. Any advice would be welcome.
