If you watched my video showing three Mini, and you're only here to see this one on high, you're free to skip to 2:51 to save your time (medium is same as "high" in my last video, and low is same as "medium" in my last video).

2 blade configuration starts at 4:45
Motor running without blades starts at 7:06

This fan is in my collection. It was one out of five fans from The Cedars House. The rear one out of three in eating area fell out of plastic box about 2 years ago, and I got the other four this year as well as the mounting bracket for the one that fell, so I have four Mini plus the extra mounting bracket. This fan was the front fan out of three in eating area and is dated March 2010. The Home Depot Clarkston in bronze took place of front and rear Monte Carlo Mini, and nothing took place of middle one. Clarkston in white replaced Mini in party room, and track lights replaced Mini in small room. This one had fan pull chain replaced in or before 2014 with a 3-way fan light switch and was wired in way the sequence would be slow low, low, and medium. I took the chain switch from Hampton Bay Landmark (I don't have blades for it) which uses same exact wiring sequence (L-1, L-2-3, L-3) as the ones on my other Mini, and I used it on this fan. The pull chain switch is a little big and I was only able to use 2 screws to have fan hold switch housing but it seems sturdy enough that way. I also removed wattage limiter since it would eventually malfunction and I find it useless since candelabra based socket can't use light bulbs above 60 watts, and I know how to limit wattage myself by not putting high wattage light bulb. The light pull chain was completely broken and I couldn't fix it so I used the chain from Hunter light fitter that came with Hampton Bay Landmark. This fan runs silent, wobbles a bit, and blows tons of air for how small it is! This fan is shown on all 3 speeds with all 4 blades installed, as well as 2 blades and I also showed motor running without blades.
