Changing a fan is not a big thing indeed.
Just for the record, in case someone else searches these forums for this information, the fan in that 1999 Freedom Combi 25 inverter is a Delta WFB1212H .45amp 2800rmp 90cfm at 37dba. That fan is no longer made. I replaced it with a Scythe SY1225SL12SH .53amp 1900rpm 110cfm 37dba. These are commonly sold as a computer case cooling fan. That was the only fan I could find that moved at least that much air and was as quiet. I didn't check with Gusdorf or Panterra (thanks for the leads though) for a replacement -- seemed too trivial. Just in the interest of my own knowledge, I searched for fans of similar specs -- learned a lot.
Sure is quiet!
Which brings me to another battery charging issue -- the generator start battery.
I'll post that in another thread.
Thanks, all.
