BLDC fans require special regulator suiting them, otherwise will give speed variance issues randomly, noise, etc.
Have a thorough check about that.

We have been using Atomberg Efficio for over 5 years in all our rooms and we are quite satisfied with it. No issues yet, blades haven't rusted or anything.
The only problem I personally have is that speed 1 is too fast, it's more like 1.5. There should be a slower setting coz it gets kinda cold sometimes even on 1.

We just bypassed the regulator entirely on our installation and use the remote exclusively.
I purchased a Superfan BLDC 1400 mm (Super V1) and a Havells BLDC 1200 mm (Enticer Prime) fans. And already have an atomberg.
Superfan quality and overall design feels cheap compared to havells or atomberg.
Both fans have the same airflow issue: they direct air only beneath them. If you're not directly under the fan, only your shins will feel the breeze.
I have created a highly scientific diagram of the airflow.
There's a workaround for this issue, though. You can block all the veins going to your upper body. Send the blood to your shins only.

Another one for Atomberg BLDC fans. I've very recently myself replaced 3 very old fans in my apartment with Atomberg Efficio Alpha BLDC fans.
I'm happy with the performance and the installation process was easy. I also bypassed the regulator on all 3 fans.
The power usage is very low. Max 35W per fan on boost mode and lower otherwise.
The LED lights in a plus at night when you need to have guess of where things are and have to go to the washroom or anything. It's neither too bright nor too dark. Turn them on/off via remote without any risk of tripping over anything to walk over to the electrical switches is very convenient.
I think I got a decent deal of 3 fans @ 6500 INR on amazon.

Most BLDC fans have a RPM of 350 or even lower due to power saving and less noise, for normal fans it's 400, also it depends on fan size, smaller the fan, higher the RPM
So I must buy a fan now. One of ours has just died. Dude is 40 y.o. probably just a condensor issue anyway. Whatever. So post 163 gives me assurance that even the lowest speed is too fast. Can this be overcome by using a dimmer? Like pushing the fan lower than speed 1 of remote?
And post 164 scientific demonstration gives assurance regarding the airflow. Okay.

We had a fan that old maybe older than that. Purchased by my grandfather. It was all bent and shit. But the airflow was exceptional no matter where you were in the room.
Capacitor?
That is correct with atomberg and that's one reason why I avoided the brand this time.
I'll say, the first speed on superfan and havells is very much usable.

Have 1 atomberg efficio 1200mm purchased in 2020
Have 2 atomberg efficio 1200mm purchased in 2021
Works great till today.
Brother got almost 7 in his house. 4 renesa+ 1200mm, 3 renesa+ 600mm, almost working for 2 years now.
Lower cfm fans are basically for when you have ac to support. Get higher cfm ones when you don't have ac for cooling.
