I've always been a fan of USHA :3 I'm bringing over a USHA deluxe, popular, and Air King to the United States, and I'm gonna show them the power of USHA 50's and 60's fans made in India!
Of course, I have a GEC Toofan, but I love the style of USHA fans, elegance in industrial styling, performance, classic design, rarity and so on!
Of course, 110v 60hz is not suitable, but I'll have a testing rig to convert the power to 220v 50hz to test and eventually post the videos to TH-cam.
You are a big reason among the very few who own USHA fans that I started collecting them overseas!
Thanks!
Yeah! Usha is good, their design, etc are of good quality. GEC Toofan is my favorite. Once I had a wish to get Toofan but Instead i got GEC Everest 60". Both are good quality fans!
@antiquefanworld1728 would you still want a GEC TooFan? I'll consider selling you mine, I really like it, of course, and I understand they are pretty rare nowadays.
I do have about 3 or 4 usha fans coming in within the next month, so I'll need to make some space :P
@@torathestallion8976 I do like GEC toofan. But have no Enough money. By the way this is my second channel account!
I have this fan ❤
Nice
I haven this fan
Great fan.
Bapuji fan.
Nice fan
Yup! thank you!
Antique fan world, you are wrong in many places. Usha company started manufacturing fan from 1948. So it's manufactured in or after 1948. I don't know how old you are but such fans were common around Kolkata, seen both in private house and government places. 36, 42 ,48 inch were common in houses and 48,, 56 inch were common in school, colleges, university, govt offices and rail station. I don't know whether you are from Kolkata or not. I am from Kolkata suburbs I saw those in my mother's school. That fan became faulty and brought down. I specifically know that fan was from late 60. And that was 48 inch Usha deluxe with capacitor and double aluminium canopies. In my mother's grandparents house there were many Usha deluxe fans because it is situated in Ballygunge where AC was supplied from 1940s. So those fans were from early 50s. All have metal canopies and Usha regulator. Usha regulator was unique because it has 7 or 8 speed marking. Speed can be seen through a small circular window and speed can be changed by turning a black round bakelite knob. I studied in ramkrishna mission and there were many 56 and 48 inch Usha deluxe fans. I bent one fan blade and it was bent without much effort revealing the blade material was aluminium so according to your statement blades can't be that heavy. I later studied in presidency college where many fans were 56 inch Usha deluxe fans. I wet to Calcutta University where many fans were too Usha deluxe fans and mostly 56 inch. In Sealdah station there were few Usha deluxe fans till early 2000. In many branch stations of Sealdah division Usha deluxe fans were present till early 2000. Some examples are Khardah, Barrackpore, Dumdum, Barasat etc. But after 2005 all were gone ( including other antique fans like IEW, GEC, Crompton Parkinson) both working and non functional stock. All were scrapped and replaced by Orient, polar, Crompton, Usha fans.
This fan originally had much more longer run down time than yours. Original bearings were also made by Jay engineering works and were ver good in quality. This fan has such a high inertia that even after switching off for a minute you won't feel any slow down specifically true for 36 inch fan.. I don't think you have wound up the motor. It looks like professional work and can't be done in 3 hours. A person who can't even tighten the screws of blades!!!! Usha fans were originally hand wound so nothing new just accept that you have done it by a veteran technician.
I have seen, used, played with a variety of antique fans so don't try tomake me fool.
I have rewound the fan myself! for you it would be fake but truth is truth! and secondly USHA is a 1935 brand, secondly they had DC ceiling fans. Secondly you are wrong in some places. In 1930s, all fan brands give their fan name as ''AC FAN" and just like my USHA "AC 36 FAN" but no model name. By the late 40s they started giving names like deluxe, popular etc....popular was 1950s and then prima came in 60s and later it was mk2. In late 60s, Kohinoor, continental etc came.
I have rewound the 47mm stator of my USHA 36" with RR Shramik 28 SWG copper enamel wire and the original number of coil turns given by USHA is 412 for each pole!
I have hand rewound the motor just to avoid soldering of each joints! I can't do anything if you are feeling that am fake! no matter what ppl thinks but truth is truth and I DONT HAVE TO WORRY IF YOU FEEL AM FAKE BECAUSE I KNOW THAT I DID.
It is a amazing fan so much better than Crompton
Yup!
Exactly...much better than crompton
My grandmother has this exact one in brown in 900mm white is more common then the brown ones
Wow!
alla antique fan chetta malayali anno? nyanum malayali annu
Awesome fan with real broad blades and powerful motor..aesthetics also good for a fan of its era. Atleast it looks better than crompton parkinson river series
Exactly!
Hello Tintin fan , can you recognise me!!!!!!!!!!!????????
In my consideration Usha deluxe fans had best air delivery among fans of its age ; especially better than Crompton Parkinson ball, high performance and GEC Everest. And it was the best model among all Usha manufactured models. Unfortunately Usha stopped making this gem 💎 and started manufacturing bush bearing fan like Kohinoor. One, who has enjoyed the breeze of Usha deluxe fans can't forget it. It has such a mesmerizing effect.
@@Satyaprakash81102 I completely agree with you. I grew up using an usha prima of 1960s or so..it had extra broad blades due to which it blew a storm...the experience was amazing..and I have been a patron of usha since...
@@Satyaprakash81102 no..I don't recognize you .who are you btw
Note : This is not a 1950s Usha fan. Some ppl think its 50s but its not. This one is from 40s with shaded pole motor and both 6203 bearings! 50s USHA had 6201 and 6203 only and with plastic canopies, whereas this 40s one comes with single metal canopy!
Bro, I don't think any company made plastic canopies during the 50s...I think plastic canopies came only during 90s...because I had a prima, presumably from the 60s and that had solid metal canopies
Tintin fan, in my house many fans are from 1970s. All have plastic canopies. But Usha was different. Even in early 1970s Usha deluxe and Usha deluxe and Usha prima fans had aluminium canopies.
@@Satyaprakash81102 I know...even my usha prima had thick metal canopies which was impossible to dent..at the same I had a couple of crompton parkinson hi-efficiency fans which had plastic canopies and they cracked over a period of time.
@@Satyaprakash81102 I don't have usha prima anymore, but I have usha striker galaxy of the present times which us equally amazing
Even i have a 1970's prima mk2 but canopies are plastic even 1960's prima was plastic,1950's popular till 1970's was metal i may say
Imagine how tough it was back then climbing up and hanging this fan.
Can the blades be repaired?
Great Grandfather of all the fans we have now
Are you planning to repaint it?
Correct! BTW i will repaint it! its original color is metallic gold with silver medallion with red ''USHA'' written on upper canopy! but something rare is coming to my hands so stay tuned!
@@antiquefanworld1728 I’m anxious to see it.
Exactly ..but ppl were used to it...I myself used to hang usha prima weighing 13 kgs by myself....this was years ago.
@@tintinfan007 But then it is not easy handling a heavy fan while climbing up.
I think in today’s world the buildings where we live don’t have such strong fan boxes as earlier.
@@ari91629 if u r a muscle-fan, then it will be easy.
Else no
bro my uncle has this exact same fan in his pharmacy
Great! Preserve it! very very rate fan it is!
@@antiquefanworld1728 actually its restored by him
