Comments about Sunforce Solar Ventilators:
Installs easily on flat surface. Works as described. It doesn't move an enormous quantity of air so if you need a fast air exchange, you will need more than one or a larger model. The stainless model looks good but the controls look kind of cheap. One of the switches isn't quite square, and as a builder, this bothers me.
About the light: be warned it is a horrible LED BLUE color and not something you would want for a night light or cabin accent. I am going to try to replace the LED.
