It’s a modern technology that is going to drive the future, and I like that as a community you can feel you are part of it.” Developing all this new onshore wind energy would be the equivalent of building a large nuclear power station. It would provide enough home-grown, cheap, green energy for 1.85 million homes - or the combined population size of Birmingham and Manchester. Starting with communities living along the coastline from Grimsby to Skegness, ‘Fan Club’ customers in this area will be able to get up to 50% off their electricity when their local offshore wind farm is producing lots of wind powered electricity. This fan is actually stronger than it looks providing a similar amount of wind flow as the Lasko Tower Fan. This is a chargeable fan so you will need to charge this after several hours of use. The biggest downside here is that the fan needs to be clipped directly to the screen ( or onto the speakers for the Peloton Bike+). Double Plus and Crostice Fans

Following ‘The Fan Club’ model, ‘Fan Club - The Collective’ will initially focus on onshore wind before expanding to solar energy.

It wasn't the best in terms of its complaints performance but still came in joint-fifth place along with four other suppliers. Octopus Energy customer service Octopus Energy’s first ever own brand turbines are now on the grid, and we’ve included the UK’s first windy tariff to boot - we halve the price of your electricity whenever your turbine is spinning fast. This is the first step in a huge plan for Octopus owning its very own generation and offering local wind tariffs across the country. It means we can begin producing the clean, green power we provide to customers ourselves and incentivise customers to use energy when it’s the absolute greenest. One happy Octopus customer said: 'They offer genuinely green tariffs. They also have great customer service and care about their customers.' Another added: 'They have been very fair and trying to help people out during the energy crisis.' Octopus Fan Club is compatible with our “Octopus Outgoing Smart Export Guarantee” export tariff but no other Octopus export tariffs. The Octopus Fan Club is a smart product and so you cannot be on any Octopus Smart import tariffs whilst on the Octopus Fan Club.

The reason I am combining both of these fans is because both have the same specs, are made by the same company, and even come in the same box. But oddly enough, their performance was not the same.
