After noticing a diurnal spike in my Davis Vantage Pro 2 after a happy 3.5 years of running, I noticed that the aspirated fan wasn't working. Solar Panel and batteries test OK, fan/motor is toast. Supposedly they're only good for 3 years running 24/7, so I got a good life out of it.

Could not find the specs on Davis' site and honestly think $50+ for a fan/motor is a bit much. Was wondering if anyone else has replaced or knew what the specs were for this fan so I could acquire a replacement on another computer parts site.

Have no idea on specs...
But, find a surplus one that will fit... $1 or $2 and long as same voltage and same size should work just as well.. I have some here that have been running for over 5 years 24/7 unless main power is off..

Figured it would help if I attached a picture. You can see it's a round enclosure with a lip and has a 3 prong IC connector (not a computer connector).
