just so u know, the ribbon like label u see on it is actually the “safety mark” label that almost all electronic appliances in Singapore have. if your electrical appliance doesnt have this it is quite unsafe to use. not sure if there is something related in malaysia
Ours back than was just logo now is than that logo with safety mark but the mark was placed at the side very small now the mark is bigger and in the middle in red
I think this was made during the KB30D era, unless the KB302 and/or 303 also came in this shade of green! And yes, the green late-90s KDK fans had golden KDK logos on their grille buttons, since the green KB30E I filmed had it too! This A30AS seems to sound a little like your F-MN305. However the biggest surprise is the motor's behaviour! The slow acceleration between speeds makes it look like the blades are sturdy and weighty! Shame about the stiff oscillation though.
Yep it is! 2000 was the final model year for the KB30D anyways, but I'm not sure if the KB30D came in dark green too. When I got it, it does remind me of the KB30E that you filmed too, especially the body color and the golden KDK logo! And apparently it's not just KDK, even the dark green National F-MN305 badge had golden logos too, as I remembered my old one had it. Wonder why Matsushita decided to put golden logos on their dark green badges 🤔. Yep, it does sound like my F-MN305SE, and it is a really solid fan indeed (despite having the smaller 12 inch motor)! Pity for the oscillation too...
@@TheKDKCollector I'm not sure about that as well but it does look unique! How does the build quality compare to your KB304? Are the motors and bearings the same?
@@TheMatsushitaMan the build quality is better than the KB304, and there’s even a cover at the base where we don’t get it on the KB30D! The motor is similar to the KB304’s, but there’s a slight difference. Maybe I’ll show you later
Nice! this is a very common table fan in Singapore. Some people even mount it on walls as a wall fan lol. this colour you have here is rare! how did you get this btw?
Thanks bro! Yeah I've also seen ppl using table fans as wall fans lol This is an earlier iteration model, so I guess it was discontinued somewhere in the 2000s. I've already mentioned it in the description, I got it from a guy in my area that sells Singaporean imported goods

Yep I know what that is haha!
In Malaysia we have the Sirim sticker which is similar to that.
@@TheKDKCollector hm cool!

@@TheKDKCollector Ooo interesting!
I wonder what the cover looks like and where it is.
And the motor differences too
@@TheMatsushitaMan I’ll PM you some pics
Wow
