Here's Why the Sirocco II Caravan Fan Is So Popular in Australia
If you've had trouble grabbing a Sirocco II 12V fan for your campervan, here's why!
By Aussie guest writer Freya Hall
Caframo, a Canadian company, makes Australia’s most popular RV fan: The Sirocco II fan from SEEKR by Caframo. Australia's most beloved 12V/24V fan being made in Canada might seem curious but actually, it makes complete sense.
Aussies and Canadians have a lot in common: we’re easy-going larrikins by nature, explorers at heart, with a deep reverence for the great outdoors. Both our homelands can be as treacherous as they are spectacular - that’s why we understand the importance of reliable and high-quality gear!
The Sirocco II is a prime example of this. It keeps selling out across Australia for this very reason: no other fans on the market can compete with its quality and reliability.
The unique gimbaled design allows for complete 360° airflow. This means you only need to install one fan to enjoy a breeze through your whole rig: Turn it towards the kitchen while you’re cooking snags, then twist it back to face the sleeping compartment when it’s time to hit the hay.
It also boasts three speeds and four timer settings, allowing you to optimise your trip for comfort and energy efficiency. Speaking of, the Sirocco II only draws 0.06A (24V) and 0.12A (12V) when on low and 0.21A (24V) and 0.35A (12V) when on high. It's built to last for thousands of hours of continuous run time through demanding conditions, so you can go and go and go, exploring as far as your ambition takes you.
And while it's whizzing away, the Sirocco II remains whisper quiet. This is an invaluable feature: regulating your body temperature and achieving quiet are essentials for a restful sleep on the road.

Another tidbit for you: we’re both tall, in fact, we’re pretty much the same height! The average Australian man clocks in at 175.6 cm, Canadian men 175.1 cm, Australian women 161.8 cm, and Canadian women 162.3 cm. Space is tight on any rig, but especially so when you’re travelling with tall folks or family. That’s why we designed the Sirrocco II with space-saving in mind. The fan folds away flat against it’s mounting surface and measures up at only 24.1cm x 9.5cm x 3.11cm.
And just like you Aussies, we pride ourselves on being true to our word. We stand behind the quality and reliability of every Sirocco II fan by offering a 2-year warranty.
