I really wanted to show you a my rarest fan, after @reviewerjangkung and @TheFanUniverse uploads their respective NOS fan, and it's time for mine!
This here is a Maspion EF-304 T 12" desk fan in white. It was considered as Maspion's 1st fan with esthetic design, and it still amazing enough for 2023 standards. But being a esthetic fan, Maspion's quality is dependable. There's a story behind in this fan, as I firstly own this fan.
On May 2023, @reviewerjangkung in his Instagram, uploaded a 1990s Maspion desk fan catalogue ( / csb0eithcaa ), where it consist of current and past Maspion's lineup in 1990s (I know F-23 D in that catalogue is still in production). One fan that I instantly become my interest is the rarest EF-304 T model. Before that, I didn't know Maspion was ever to made EF-304 T back then. Fast forward in June 2023, when I realized that I found a store that selling a NOS fans in South Jakarta, sells the EF-304 T! After I discovered this fan, I decided to acquire it and I'm become the 1st owner of EF-304 T! So my speculation is, he should own this fan, too, as he was uploaded the catalogue in his IG.
This fan has some features which you can't see on newer Maspion models. The feature is:
- Cable storage box;
- 1,2 MFD Capacitor mounted in the bottom, and
- 5-Way oscillation
This fan can tilt up to 45 degrees tilt, which you can't find on newer Maspion models. One thing that I notice is, the front and motor cover has already uses clips, which you also find on newer Maspion models. I thought Maspion has already using these since 2012, but I proved wrong. This fan has already have that. The only difference is that still uses a screw, while current models didn't have.
The grille on this fan is still uses a detachable clips instead of ring, both clips or screws. The only disadvantage on this unit is, the badge isn't have a clips, which I couldn't swap it with other Maspion OEM badge. I think this unit is worth finding.
